Visits from the single Siblings!

Oh, how we love when family comes to visit. The joys of living at my parents' house, is getting to be here when my siblings come visit. We get to enjoy the awesome weather, hang out all night long, and snuggle with our favorites!
Sadee warmed up to Jordan really quick and was his little buddy!
Jayla was so excited to see her Aunt Ju-Ju! Can't you see it on their faces!!
Jayla loves to snuggle! The pictures tell all!


We, also, went boating too. I was injured this time as well, but I ignored the bummed ankle and went anyways. Totally worth it!!




At the movies with the family that weekend! Sorry April, my photo taking before the lights went down cut you out of the picture!!

Easter everything.....all involving eggs!!

We really got into Easter fun this year. Josh's parents sent us a bunch of fun Easter toys and a princess egg decorating kit. We took about twenty minutes to set up, about five minutes to actually do it, and another twenty cleaning it back up! Oh, the efforts we make for a few minutes of fun!
The set-up and watching the eggs change colors!

Proud little decorator!

Sadee didn't want to color her eggs, just hold them!
The saturday before easter, we went to a community Easter egg hunt. It was so much fun. The girls got free balloons, Sadee had her face-painted, (Jayla was too scared), played with bubbles, and they even got to go hunting for five eggs each. They loved it.




Searching for more eggs!
Loving her balloon hat, and the sucker!
Our little bunny and her balloon corsage!

Showing off the loot!

Last, but not least, we did our own Easter Egg Hunt in my parent's front yard. Sadee didn't really understand the concept, and took off across the yard to pick up one egg, passing the other ten eggs in her path. But she still gathered enough to keep her little greedy hands happy.

Waiting to go outside! and showing off our new outfits from Grandma K and Papa Coy!

Sadee was very impatient and tried to hard to get out!

Papa was worried about little ones getting sunburned! So he put them in "special" Easter hats!



Showing off their findings!

Sadee's basket was too heavy to carry, so she dragged it back into the house. She dropped the her eggs along the way, but don't worry, Jayla picked every last one up for her!

New Easter Dresses and new Candy

I know we are a month behind, but I am catching up. My mom bought Sadee a yellow easter dress last year on sale, and I spent months searching for a matching dress for Jayla. After several stores, four different dresses, and a very anxious three-year-old, who loved every princess dress she tried on, we finally found the perfect one at JCPenney! Yeah!! If you look at the above, picture you will notice Sadee holding her little bag of candy very close. Her nursery leaders gave her this cute little bag of treats, and she would not part with it, nor would she share it. Not even Jayla's sweet little voice could convince her to.


Sadee running away from Jayla so she doesn't have to share her candy!!

Sadee and her faces


I can't tell you how much I am loving this little sweetheart in my life. Yes, she is very demanding and cries more than a child should, (she's very sensitive!) but she makes me laugh all the time. I love to walk in a room and have her smile and yell "mommy, mommy, mommy." I find it hilarious that one of her first words was dinosaur. Yes, my little almost two-year-old is obsessed with the movie, Night at the Museum, and I mean, obsessed. If she could choose the movie, it would be that, and we probably watch it everyday while I am showering. It's the only way to keep her still while I do!
She loves strollers, purses and cute things in her hair!
May I take your order, please?

Learning how to undress herself during naps!

Did I mention she loves things in her hair or on her head??

I like to move it, move it...I like to MOVE IT!!

We finally started Jayla in dance!! She loves it! (most of the time!) It usually takes a little bribery by the end of class, but she is a good listener and is catching on fast.
Showing off her dance moves! Not sure, which ones, but once we got the leotard on, I could barely keep her still!



This is their Tap Dancing Routine. She gets to do lots of fun performances once she learns it!

We LOVE the beach....






or maybe NOT!!


Chilling out, relaxin'!


We loved the sand though!

Maybe too much!

Sadee even ate way too much!
Thanks Jessica, Kylie and James for coming to visit so we could enjoy the warm weather and the beach for a day. It was lots of fun to see our old friends and play together at the beach. Even if we didn't really enjoy the water side.

Happy St. Patty's Day!


My plan to do fun things for Holidays has been holding up, sort of! We ended up doing these green rice krispy treats a day late hence why neither of them are wearing green, but I at least did it, right?? Better late than never!!
