Twinners!

Mommy and Daddy got Maycie and Haizlie matching dresses in Mexico and had a great time with all of the compliments at church on Sunday. Look at these adorable sisters!

Goodbye Grandma Karen

Grandma Karen was an absolute ROCKSTAR with the kids while Mommy and Daddy were gone. In fact, so much so that the kids really would have been fine saying goodbye to Mom and Dad if they could just go home with Grandma. So on her last day, we went to the park and then actually took her into the airport. We had several races on the movie walkways(all of which Mommy and Grandma lost), we rode the elevators several times, got to push the buttons on the screens to check Grandma in for her flight, then waited with her just outside of security until the absolute last second she could possibly wait. The kids really are going to miss Grandma and can't wait for her next visit!

Haizlie is 4 months!

Little Num Num is officially 4 months! This month she has been all smiles! If you just look at her she gets bashful and smiley and STICKS HER TONGUE OUT! That adorable little tongue peeks its way into nearly every one of her sparkling smiles. She really does have a smile that can light up a room. She is the easiest, most predictable baby there ever was. She has learned how to roll from her back to her tummy now so although she can roll both ways, she typically gets stuck on her tummy and squacks until you roll her over. This month she definitely found her hands and her feet so she's always holding one foot and always has a hand in her mouth if she doesn't have a binky. She's been our little squish ball all month long! She is happy literally all day long except for about the 3 minutes before she falls asleep for a nap. But Mommy has found that if you put her binky in, wrap her in her fussy pink blanket (and yes, she can tell the difference between blankets), and hold her close to you, that she instantly calms down and falls asleep. At night Mommy puts her down awake and she falls asleep on her own, and usually sleeps from 9:30pm to 9:00am! We couldn't ask for a more happy, loving, and loveable baby!

Kingston's 5th Birthday!

I still can't believe we have a 5 year old!! Kingston is growing up so fast, but it is so fun to watch! This year he wanted a Star Wars party at his house, "like Maycie's last time". When the kids arrived they got to make their own light sabers with pool noodles, different colored duct tape, and stickers. Then we went right into Jedi Training by starting out with "Using the Force Within" and playing pin the light saber on yoda. Then they worked out their jedi skills by making their way through the lazer challenge without touching the lazers. Then they got hungry so we ate dinner which was Padawan Pizza, Jedi Jello, Wookie Cookies, Space Chips, Hans Rolos, and Yoda Soda. The kids thought it was funny, but Jess just thought I was cheesy. Ha. After their Force Fuel, they became official Jedi's by getting their robes. We then fought the Storm Troopers (balloons), then fought the pinata(Darth Vader), then Darth Vader and a Storm Trooper came to life and the kids got to fight them. We opened presents and had some cake and before we knew it the party was over. Kingston had a great time and is still having a great time with all of his fun presents.
