Mothers Day 2010

We had a wonderfull Mothers day this year. It was nice and low key, accompanied by a fabulous dinner and great laughs with some of our favorite people.

Charlie bit my finger - again !

The girls are obsessed with this video. They want to watch it all day, and they are starting to say it to each other. It is so funny because Emily can say it just like the boy. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

Jaime's Baby Shower

The girls were so excited for Jaime's shower last weekend. They got all dolled up and were more than anxious to pose for some pictures. The were perfect girls and sat and watched Jaime open her presents like little ladies. They loved having Jake there to talk to and play with. They are now calling him a big "Jokster."

New Hair Cuts

A couple of weeks ago I took the girls to get their hair cut. The girl did a cute braid for their bangs and they loved it. It is their most requested hair do now.

Sweet "Stone Cold" Emily, trying not to smile for us.

Ali, all ready for the camera.

Lagoon Competition

On Saturday we got to spend the day at Lagoon for one of Ali's dance competitions. The girls had a blast and Emily was so brave, I hope the she continues to be brave throughout the summer.

Ali and her friend Hailee A. on The Jumping Dragon. This was their favorite ride. They went on in 3 times in a row, lets just say how nauseating this ride is. I goes around really fast like the music express, but I'd way even faster and then half way through the ride it switches directions and goes backwards. It really makes me want to vomit, so I am so glad that she is old enough to go on these kind of rides with her friends.

Emily on The Dragonfly for the first time. She cried the first three times around, and then she started laughing and told me that she loved it when she got off.

Emily and Emma on the baby boats. This is Emily's favorite ride.

First time Emily rode these airplanes without crying also. She had such a good time that day.

Ali's feild trip to the Zoo

Friday was Ali's first Kindergarten feild trip. We all got to go to the Zoo for the day, well it only ended up to be 2 hours by the time the slow buses got their and when we had to get back to get loaded up on the bus. The kids had a great time, and Ali was so excited that we got to walk around with Lilly, Quintin and Isabella.

The sweet Gorilla, he kept picking his nose, but every time the camera flash light would start to shine he would immediately move his arm and stare at us.

Isabella, Quintin, Lilly and Ali

It was such a beautiful day. It was so much fun to be outside.

Ali monkeyin' around with the monkeys.

Of course the parkk was the highlight of the day.

Ali on the big elephant. She was so excited to sit on his trunk, and then after was so disapointed, I think that she must have thought he was going to take her on a ride or something.

We can't wait until the next feild trip. We will be off to Wheeler Farm.

My Little Mud Cat

Ali had her first two baseball games last week. She did awesome and is quite a good batter.

The first game that they played, Ali's team played all of her friends from school. I was worried that she would get upset that she was not on their team, but she did really good and hit the ball with a pitch every time it was her turn and she never needed the T. She was so proud of that.

Ready to catch the ball. She has not quite got down how to catch the ball in the air, but she can catch it great if it is rolling to her.
