Spring Training

My cousins Anna and Caity were in town for a few days. The girls were in heaven. We had so much fun! Kayleigh loved having them stay with us and spending so much time with them. Gma Gerre and Aunt Jean were in town for the weekend and we headed out to a Brewer game. The weather was great and we had a fun time running around in the grass.

    

Bike Rides! (finally)

The weather is perfect for riding bikes! One problem…Taylor refuses. We have this trailer cart thing that attaches to the back of the bike. Both girls can sit in it. Kayleigh likes it, but prefers to ride her own bike. Taylor flips out when we even talk about putting her into it. Who knows why? So we just take turns going on rides with Kayleigh and someone stays back with Tay. We saw this bike attachment at the store and decided to give it a try…and she loves it!! She looks so cute too!

Tempe Beach Park

We were all set to go to the zoo today, well so was half of AZ too! So we decided to try Tempe Beach Park for our picnic and play. The splash park is under construction, but we will definitely have to come back for that. We had fun playing with all our good friends. The kids ran around and played with cars. Kaykay and Carter played hide n’ seek.

Here is Miss Taylor and her boyfriend…

Carter was sure to fairly distribute the cars…

New friends Addie & GG…

Library Fun

We went to the Chandler Library with Auntie Carrie & Addie. It was Kaykays first time to the library (I know..bad mom) and she was really excited! It is a beautiful library and so much fun for kids. There were books, puppets, songs, and bubbles. The girls had a good time!

Ostrich Festival

We took the girls to the Ostrich Festival for the first time this year. Food, ostrich races, overpriced rides, amazing weather, family, and friends...what more could you ask for? I think this will definitely become a yearly thing we do.

Today was also our 6 yr anniversary!

Play Room Wall #3

The 3rd wall of our amazing playroom is done! It was actually done awhile ago, but I was a little behind with the camera. Stacie of course did an incredible job and we all are in total love with it. Kayleigh is so proud! Every time anyone comes into the house she makes them come look at her playroom (even the cox guy). I knew I was going to put the shelving unit on the wall, so I really didn't want Stacie to paint something, because I knew I would not want to cover it. She insisted every area had to be painted in case I moved furniture around one day. She of course is right, but I still have a really hard time covering any of her amazing work. We can luckily kind of see through the shelves to the artwork behind. The forth wall is started and looks great also (sorry no sneak peeks until it is done- you have to come over to see!)

Just like Kaykay!

Taylor has to do everything big sister does! She loves to sit on the big girl potty just like Kaykay. She says "potty, potty", sits on there, puts toilet paper in, then claps "yeah!" She never actually potties, but we are still proud of her. I love this picture. I took it with my phone and I just thought she looked so sweet with that big round belly!

Peek-a-boo!

Both girls love mommy's closet! I find them in there all of the time. They try on my clothes, put on my bras, put on my shoes, and go through my jewelry. Daddy's closet they leave alone! If I can't find Taylor- I look in my closet. This is usually what I see...
cute little chubby legs under my clothes...

Kayleigh's Dance Recital

Kayleigh had her big dance debut! She did excellent and we are so proud of her. She did 3 dances- jazz, tap, and ballet. After each dance she ran over to me and gave me a big hug and kiss. She really concentrated and watched the teacher. We signed up for more dance classes. Taylor loved to watch Kaykay and danced like a ballerina in the audience admiring her big sis.

Smart little monkey

Miss Taylor has learned a few things from watching her big sister. She now knows how to push the chair from the table to the counter, climb onto the counter and get anything she wants. This is so an ER visit waiting to happen!
