The Jumping Place

Whit isn't to into the jumpers but she liked bouncing with Scott's help



Mal loved all the jumpers!



Mallory LOVED the slides!


Whitney went right up and laid down with the big kids to watch the movie!





Basketball was one of their favorites!



We went to the girls favorite place on Sunday afternoon....THE JUMPING PLACE! They both had a GREAT time!

Mal's New Car Seat


Mallory out grew her car seat and had to move up to a "big girl" car seat! She is SO EXCITED! Mommy is a little sad...I know it is just a car seat but it reminds me have how fast she is growing. It seems like she barely fit in her infant carrier just the other day!

Best Buddies





The girls are the best little buddies and partners in crime! I took a few pictures of them together today in their normal element of hugging and kissing (a little bit of wrestling)! We love you and Miss you!

Saturday Morning Painters




The girls were up at 7:30 this morning ready to PAINT! They were cracking us up! I told them they had to eat breakfast and get dressed first...so they hurried through that and got busy painting! :-)

I can Do my OWN hair do!

Mallory does NOT like having her hair fixed however she insists on growing long hair like all the "princesses, barbie, and Rapunzel" The other morning she came in and said "Look Mom, I don't need you to fix my hair today I can do my OWN hair do!"

Little princess



Whitney is cracking us up with her new princess addiction! She wants to be in a dress with fairy wings all the time and she says..."Mama I wanna be a pincess" she picks out everything she wants to wear and has me help her get them on and then she wears them for hours! (Even when she is playing hopscotch!) HILARIOUS!

Day at the Zoo





We had a great day at the zoo yesterday as a whole family! :) Scott was off and we had an amazing 80 degree January day. The girls favorite animals at the zoo were the monkeys and the fish. Mal was pretty excited about the flamingos and anxious to bring her Mimi to see them! :) We all had so much fun! Love to all!

Beautiful Day!






We enjoyed playing outside today in the gorgeous 75 degree weather! :-) We went to the park and then out on a walk...Mal was practicing "controlling" her Dora bike! Scott was having a good time telling Mal that she drives like her mom :) Very funny! :) We had a wonderful weekend and are looking forward to having another day all home together tomorrow! :) Love to all!

My little finger painters





The girls were busy this morning doing all kinds of arts and crafts! You can see them finger painting and then Mallory is working really hard cutting out a heart! She is doing so well with cutting! Now I just have to keep the scissors up high so we make sure only craft paper gets cut! :)

Our Kansas House




We received notice from our current renters yesterday that they are going to be moving out at the end of their lease March 1. So, Scott and I are now trying to find new renters to take over...it throws a twist in things trying to do it from Texas. I am going to be home for 2 weeks in March so I am going to get the house ready and show any interested renters during that time. I am just praying for an easy transition and for really good tenants to take over. Pass on our name if you know anyone that would be interested :) Love to you all! Miss you so much!

Princess Party






On Saturday Mallory and Whitney had a birthday party for their friend Peyton. It was so cute and they had a lot of fun. There were about 25 kids running around dressed as Princesses and Knights having their make-up done and doing a treasure hunt. It was a really cute place and a great time! Happy Birthday Peyton!

Beautiful January Day

It was 70 degrees outside today! As much as I love winter and miss the snow I must admit I did LOVE playing at the park with the girls and feeling that sunshine on my face! I have only experienced this kind of weather in January on a vacation :) We had a great time playing and I had to persuade them home after 2 hours so they could play in the back yard while I made dinner! I am very thankful for today....as I sat there laughing and watching the kids I just had an overwhelming feeling of complete happiness. There is something about children that will do that to you! :) Love you and Miss you!
