Trauma Drama

Seriously, the day started out without a hitch.
Happy girls.
The sun was shining.
We visited Mimi and Mamaw.
Got our bangs trimmed, pee-peed on the potty for suckers.
All was well in our world.
We had lunch with friends.
Held tiny baby Patrick.
Snapped a couple pictures.
Drank Orange Soda.
Long naps.



Up from naps...
Small crusties found on little ear.
Shear panic sets in.
Several phone calls made.
One tiny, daizy earing found (PTL).
Super fast trip across town, speeding through lights.
Mommy hyperventalating.
Multiple attempts to make tiny daizy go back.
Lovingly gave cheetos to child to console.
Another frantic drive back across town.
Baby wants to breastfeed, screaming.
Met Daddy on golf course.
Tiny daizy forced back where it should be.
Popsicle to celebrate.
All is well, again, in our world.

Guess What?

Ayla

Got

Her


Ears Pierced!!





And We Think She Looks So Cute.


Don't You?

My little girl is growing up...

This past month has flown by and I am realizing more and more everyday how much
Ayla is growing up.
Its sad to say, but I may have taken advantage of the time I spent alone with her before Leah was here. Now that time is pretty rare. But, I love spending my everyday with her.

She reminds me to put her sunscreen on...

She's getting braver in the pool. AND wears the cutest bikini...

Last year she wouldn't ride these and buried her head in my shoulder...

Today we went to the mall with Mimi and sissy. We rode the carosel...

Today also marked another milestone... but we'll blog about that later....

Fireworks



Hello there.
I hope everyone had a fantastic Fourth of July.
As you can see we had quite the crowd.
It was awesome having so many of our close friends and family over for dinner and fireworks. We made a fire and hung out while Jeff and Dusty 'wow-d' us with their pyrotechnical abilities...
Really. It was kinda scarey. At one point I think a few of us thought we were going to be made sparklers when the tube fell over and the fireworks for coming RIGHT at us!
Some of the best parts were having all the babies! Lil Man, Patrick was the youngest at 10 days old. He was SO cute. Just tiny and curly and sleepy.
Leah and Abbi got to hang out again. It was so cute. They loved the mobile and cooed and smiled at the birdies. :)

Fischer and Ayla watching the fireworks. It was so late, but all the kids did a great job!
Check out the pile of shoes at the front door! I thought it looked hilarious. And most ppl were outside at this time.... it was a good time with good friends!

West Baden Gardens

I can't help it. I told you I like to match my family... with that out of the way. I also love to take pictures of my family. The weather was amazing the whole trip. But one night in particular it was so perfect! We went to the WB gardens and walked around before ice cream treats.
