Shake YOUR Booty

Well I am glad that someone had fun last night at our friend's house! :) THIS is why Madeline is in dance class. 
 

Double Trouble

First time in the double strollers with the girls facing each other. Madeline loved it and I think Avery did too, thought next time I think I'll have Madeline in the top one so she can see more. But it was great because Madeline could help entertain Avery if she got a little cranky. Love it. Oh and Momma loved that she got a 30 minute walk in pushing a good 45-50 lbs of weight. Yesssssssssssssssssss! Score one for Momma. :)

"When I Grow Up" Photos

My baby girl got all gussied up yesterday to get her pictures taken for her first-ever Dance recital. This is one proud Momma, who is probably going to lose it when she hits the stage next Saturday. She was so excited, she asked for curls and lip gloss, and of course we added a tiny bit of blush. How can I say no to this face?

Unfortunately, when she got in there for her picture she froze. I'll be surprised if it turns out with a smile. Oh well. It's the memory of it all that counts. Looking forward to her recital this Saturday night and seeing her perform with all of her friends to her song "When I Grown Up," by Shirley Temple :)

Backyard fun with QBug

While Big Sister was sleeping me and my QBug a.k.a Avery headed out back for a few photos. I just can't resist :)

Play Yard Fun

Silly photos of my baby girl enjoying her play yard...because this won't last too much longer :/

Memorial Day Weekend 2012

For Memorial Day we packed up and headed to West Virginia. We haven't been back to Brad's parents since Avery was born! It was an awesome weekend visiting with everyone, swimming and enjoying the great weather and getting to relax for a bit. We can't wait to come back in July!

Beach Baby! 

She hated the pool, water was a bit too cold for her. 

Madeline on the other hand, loved it! She started swimming on her own in her water wings and even did some big jumps into the pool that put her way under the water! We didn't even ask her, she just started doing it! She's a fish!

A very silly fish!

Madeline with Grammy Howe and Papaw Bill. By the end of the weekend Papaw Bill had Madeline running into his arms celebrating his arrival at the house. So sweet.

Daddy doing silly tricks down the slide.

When she wasn't enjoying the very warm baby pool, Avery mostly hung out and ate puffs. 

Papaw Bill even joined in the silly tricks on the slide. Did you know he's 88? W.O.W.

Madeline getting some extra help from the Men in her life.

Princess Bike

Soooooo, Daddy and Avery went to the store the other night and came home with a brand new princess bike for Madeline! What a surprise!! I think Momma was just as surprised as Madeline! She loves the bike, it has all of her favorite princesses and it even has a spot to put your baby in the front. Too cute. She is doing pretty well with it, minus the big spill we had at the park today. Madeline got some good road rash down her side, but happily hopped back on her back right after.

The look of pure joy on a three-year-old's face.

Hey everyone in the neighborhood, check out my new bike!!!

First time on!

Flower Child

I've been showing Madeline how Momma used to play with the clover flowers when she was little. She loved the necklace and crown we made until she realized they are really fragile. Cute none-the-less.

Walking our Babies

Madeline and I have been doing a lot of walking with our babies. She's made it around the block twice now! Couldn't help but snap some photos of her walking her baby. I love it.

Avery's first time in the big girl stroller!
