Tai has an Ortho appointment on 7/12/2011

Tai's doctor called me back today and decided that Tai needs to see a specialist to determine what to do with her arm/elbow. So we will be seeing Dr Katheryn Biggs on July 12th.

Great long July 4th weekend

We had a great July 4th weekend! Lots of food, fun, and play. Now...we are TIRED!
The weekend started off on Friday, and I got to leave work at 3 pm (YAY!). So I went home, packed a bag, picked up the kiddos, and headed over to see my sister and my nephew at my parents house. Had a great dinner at my parents house (pizza, another YAY!) with my sister, 2 newphews, neice, sister in law, parents, and of course my rugrats.

Then Saturday, we had a day of fun, splashing with the hose, shopping, and cleaning. Any attempts of resting was not written in the cards.

Then Sunday I got up early, made cupcakes, and we headed over to my parents house. My sisters husband and Rick went shooting (at a range, not at animals), while the kids took naps. So my mom and I sat back and cracked open our first beer of the day.
When everyone arrived we got ready for dinner (a 33 lb lasagna, seriously, we weighed it!) and sat down for a delicious feast!



After dinner, the kids sat together and slurped down a cupcake each. Although certains kids (cough, Gavin) would only eat the chocolate icing off the top!



After a log day of play, we headed home.


Monday we headed to Rick's Aunt Linda's house for another BBQ. Hot dogs, chips and wine. Tai was the only kid at this event and acted quite a fool. Throwing, dumping, hitting, snatching, and dog chasing were just a few words to describe the evening with Tai. However, we all had fun and it was great to see Bryan (Ricks cousin) and his wife, Megan.




Very successful July 4th!


Hope everyone else had fun!

Look who is sitting up!

Scarlett has been sitting up (assisted) for a few weeks now. So I thought I better start documenting it! Here she is sitting up with a small boppy around her.

My little girl is so smart!

Our new fireplace

Our fireplace is finished!!! I loooooooooooove it!













Summer fun!

This past weekend we got the baby pool out and let the girls take a "swim."








Few recent pictures

Here are a few recent pictures. I will post more from this past weekend. Cute pics of the girls in the baby pool in the front yard.

But for now.....















it's been a while!

I decided I needed to start keeping my blog up-to-date. So here is a quick update on both girls.

Tai had nurse-maid elbow for the third time this past Friday, all three times it happened at daycare. We talked to the director and they have ensured us this would be the last time. Tai loves her teachers so Rick and I are working with Kindercare to get this resolved. However, she certainly enjoyed being on baby hydrocodone in the mean time for the pain! :)

Scarlett is my little (but not so little) amazing child. She is always so happy and smiles all the time. I could just bite her little cheeks off! I can not believe she will be turning 6 months in a few weeks, where has the time gone??? She is learning to sit up right now, and can sit on her own for a few second before falling to the side. But she is well on her way. She just adores her older sister, who is also begining to show some interest in her younger sibling (who she calls "sissy."

Both girls are doing very well. And are growing likes weeds!
