Babies in a Bucket!

Ali and Emily love playing in this bucket. Matt will pick them up in it and spin them around. Ali thinks that it is just like the ride Bulgy the Whale at Lagoon.

Crazy Day with Baby Jacob

Emily absolutely loves Jacob, she will not leave him alone when he is anywhere in her reach. If he is in the Jumperoo she goes up and stands right next to him and tries to lick his cheek. The poor boy probably feels tortured when he leaves at the end of the day.

My Little Cinderella!

Ali had princess day at dance last week. Of course she wanted to go as Cinderella, her most favorite princess ever. Unfortunately she was the only one that remembered that it was princess day, she was the only one wearing a princess costume. She thought she was mighty special.

More Lagoon Photos

We went to Lagoon again last weekend, I think that Emily is going to love it just as much as her big sister. I was finally brave enough to let her ride a couple of rides with Ali, and she absolutely loved it. She did not want to get off of them when the rides were over.




Ali loves to wink these days. It is rather funny to see her do it.



This is the new ride at Lagoon, It is called Odysea. It is pretty fun.

Water Babies!

I really think that both of our girls could have been born fish or something. They are so happy when they are in the water. Emily is fearless, she just splashes and kicks her legs the whole time. She is definately not afraid to get wet. She loves watching Ali run around like a mad woman on the slides and stuff.

Here are just a couple of pictures from our last trip to the pool.

Our Little Photographer!

Ali is loving to take pictures lately. She will walk around the house just taking random pictures of thing. These are some of her favorites.

 

Lagoon, Here we come!

We went to Lagoon this weekend. Ali had such a good time. We went with some friends that have two little kids her age, I think that she wore them out riding Bulgy the Whale over and over again. Every morning now when she wakes up she asks if we are going back to Lagoon today. I think the poor child could live there.

Ali's Swimming Lessons!

Ali started taking swimming lessons at the rec center last week, she goes every Tuesday and Thursday. She absolutely loves it. When her class is over it is so hard to get her out of the water. We all went swimming with her after her lesson last week. I think that Emily is going to be a little water baby just like her big sister. She loved splashing in the water and watching her Ali run around.

Matt's new hobby!

Matt has found a new hobby to occupy his time. He thinks that he is doing me a favor when he plays because he believes that the girls love to listen to him. As much as I don't like to admit it, he is right. If only they liked to watch me scrapbook, then I could get a lot more done. He is getting pretty good at it for never playing a guitar before. Mark and Steve would be very proud of him. I am now able to recognize some pieces of songs that he is playing.

Easter 2008

We had such a great Easter. Matt had to work so he slept most of the day, but we woke hime up to see what the easter bunny had brought the kiddies then he went back to sleep. Ali was so disapointed that the Easter bunny did not bring her candy this year. We did prizes instead of candy. She got a Princess Scooter and some little crafty things. Emily got some bongo drums that she can crawl after and dance to the music.




Emily was thoroughly happy watching Ali run around like a mad woman as long as she was holding an Easter egg.


Ali got a bubble blower gun that blows out a gazillion bubbles all at once. It is really neat, I think that I am going to have to take it over for myself.


While we were playing outside, I noticed a fuzzy thing crawling on the driveway. I had no idea what it was because I had never seen one before. Matt died laughing at me and told me it was a caterpillar. It was beautiful. It had really thick fur all over, it looked like it would be really soft, but it was kind of poky. Ali had fun with it and was amazed that it could crawl up the front porch steps.

We saw the Bunny!

At the mall the other day the kids got to sit on the Easter Bunnies lap. Ali thought it was really exciting, but Emily just kind of looked at him wondering what kind of creature he was.

Bowling

We went bowling the other day, I think it could be one of Ali's all time favorit activites. She did so good, she even beat me on the first frame, then on the second frame I came around and redeemed myself and beat everyone. Ali loves watching the ball slowly roll down the lane, and she dances to the music in the meantime until she hears some pins fall down.




Emily slept through all the excitement.

Beautiful Park Weather!

The weather has been so nice here it is perfect for playing at the park. We went to the park in Kaysville the other day with the huge slide down the hill. Ali loves it and kept trying to get me to let her take Em down the slide with her.
