Mally Pally 1/2



I just had to share a picture of Mal's name! She wrote it for the first time over the weekend and has been writing it on all her papers this week! I of course took a picture of the first time she did it! I am so excited! We have been working hard on it for awhile and I am just so proud that she finally got the hang of it! I also just had to show Grandma Terri a picture from dance class today...Mal insisted on wearing her new Valentine's tutu to dance class and everyone loved it! Especially the other little girls!!! Mal was the hit of the class today! We are leaving for Kansas City tomorrow and we are SO excited to see everyone! Love to you all! Please pray for safe travels and for Scotty and I being apart for 2 1/2 weeks...that's a long time for us :(

88 Degress today!!!!



Today is is 88 degrees out! I never imagined turning on the air conditioning and going outside to play in shorts and tanks in FEBRUARY! I must admit....I am not complaining :) I am LOVING the weather today! During Whit's nap time I usually take Mal outside to play to keep the house quiet and today we put on bathing suits and made a little mini pool! SO FUN!! Don't you just love Mal's little belly hanging out! So cute, cracks me up!

Funtastic Playland






We went and visited Funtastic Playland for the second time on Tuesday. The girls had a BLAST! They just run crazy and they LOVE all the different activities they have to chose from...as usually Whitney was loving basketball and slides and Mal's favorite is the pirate ship and the climbing wall. They could stay all day if you let them! We will be back again soon....Mal is going to have her "Cinderella" birthday party there next month!

Beautiful Day!







The girls enjoyed "hanging out" in the back yard over the weekend. They were picking "flowers" aka dandelions (time to start doing weed treatments for spring....okay I guess we never really quit having spring here.....we are just behind on the weeds!) The love just relaxing together! They were cracking me up chilling in their chairs! Too funny!

Thank You Grandma Terri



Here is a little clip of the girls dancing in their new tutus and saying thank you to grandma! :-) Listen closely you can hear Whitney saying "Thank you Grandma" she is talking so much these days I LOVE it! My favorite thing is when I am out of sight from here she yells...."OH MAMA ERE ARE YOU?" So, of course I like to hide from here just to get her to say it :-) Love to you all!

New Valentine's Tutu's






Grandma Terri sent the girls ADORABLE Valentine pink and red tutus with matching pink leotards! SOOO CUTE and the girls LOVE them! They wanted to put them on right away and have been doing shows for me ever since :-)

Valentine's Day!!!!






Here are some pictures of our Valentine's day! My sweet husband brought me gorgeous red roses and we went out to a family brunch. Scott tried to get a picture of all three of his Valentine's but you can see it is hard to get a good one of all three of us at the same time! :) We hope you all had a wonderful love filled day! :-) WE LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU!

Mallory's Valentine's Party






Mal had a GREAT time at her class Valentine's Day Party....she made a super cute craft that she was very proud....decorated a delicious heart cookie....and played with her best buddy Peyton! It was a great time and I enjoyed being there....I LOVE being a room mom!!! :-)

Happy 2nd Birthday to our sweet baby Whitney Grace!

Kitchen





Whitney LOVES her new Step 2 Kitchen from Mimi and Papi and Grandma and Grandpa! She was SO excited and is still busy playing as I write this! I think we couldn't have found a better gift for her! THANK YOU GUYS! We love you!

Whitney and Mimi




Whitney loved having her best bud Mimi with her for her birthday celebration! She wakes up every morning calling for her and all day is "mimi...mimi..." She loves her SO much! I am afraid tomorrow morning is going to be very sad...We love you so much mom! Thanks for being here and for everything, we miss you already!

Happy Birthday Whitney






Whitney LOVED her fabulous Barney cake that I made her :-) It was my first attempt at a home made decorated cake and I guess it was a success because Whitney knew what it was! :-) She had a great time eating it and would have kept on but we told her it was present time!

Whitney's Birthday Party 2






We are so blessed to have met a wonderful family here that have become such dear friends to us. Amy and I met at MOPS and became fast friends. She is so wonderful and I am just so thankful to have here in San Antonio! Her family joined us for Whitney's birthday party! It was a great time! Whitney had her 3 of her best friends with her on her special day Mal, Mimi, and Benjamin! :-)

Whitney's Birthday Party


o



On Saturday we had a little mini birthday party for Whitney Grace... We were SO blessed and EXCITED to have Mimi with us! It was hard not to be surrounded by everyone we love so much but we were thankful to have our Mimi.We had a little celebration to make Whitney's day special! We had a great time at Incredible Pizza! Whitney LOVED it! Aunt Amy and Uncle Adam sent a cute little dog book that she loves and Grandma and Grandpa sent a doggy movie...somehow I think her family knows how much she LOVES dogs! :) You can see that Whitney is really into Barney right now. Mom and I had to do some searching but we were able to come up with Barney party wear, a Barney cake, and Barney balloons. Whitney was SO happy! Love you all and Miss you!
