Family fun

Yogurt Mama as a familyi helped the girls build a teepee out of some bamboo we had laying around. I loved building forts with my siblings as a kid. Now I get to help my kids do it!
The girls love to wrestle around with their dad. I swear it's one of their favorite things to do. Here he is giving them a piggie back.

Fun with friends

Carley was showering in the rain that was pouring down from the roof. Then when her friend Nikki came over, she Taylor also joined in.More fun with friends. They had bubbles and water on the trampoline.
This weekend marked the start of spring break so we went to the beach. When we got home, jimmy helped fill up totes with warm water for the girls and Bubs to warm up in.
Carley loves to see and to bake. Here is one outfit she made for her doll "Cheese". She has also baked brownies, a peach upside-down cake, and a flourless cake almost all by herself this week. She is turning into quite the baker!

Spirit week at school

Spirit week at school. The girls had a "throw back" day. Taylor was an 80's girl and Carley was a go-go dancer from the 60's.They also did a crazy hair day. I bought a can of colored hair spray at Halloween and saved it specifically for this day. They wanted hair that stood up so we stuck sucker sticks in their hair. Taylor was dissappointed that her hair wasn't as fluffy as Carley's even after we brushed it out, but because Carley has wavy/curly hair and Tay doesn't, there wasn't much more we could do about it.

An abcessed tooth

Taylor had mentioned a few times that her tooth was hurting her. I didn't think much of it because we had just gone to her dentist a few weeks prior and got all her cavities filled. Until, on Sunday morning she told me that it hurt her to bite down. I decided that we needed to take her back in then, but by Sunday night, she started to get a swollen cheek! I thought, "oh no! An accessed tooth! So I took her in on Monday morning and sure enough, she had an accessed tooth. The dentist gave her laughing gas because that really helps her with her anxiety there and I let her lay on my in the examination chair. I think she ended up getting a partial root canal. She was a trooper though.

Little Bubbas

The little face I see in the morningHe likes to play with the pots and pans and whatever else he can pull out of the cupboards when I'm in the kitchen cooking or cleaning. One of his favorite things to play with is the dishwasher. He loves to pull out all the silverware from its basket. He even reaches over the babygate when he is in the living room so he can play with the dishes he can reach in the dishwasher. Sometimes my cooking/cleaning is like taking two steps forward then taking one step back, but I still love it.
He likes playing with the wooden puzzle that the girls used to play with. I brought it out for him the other day.
Asleep on Daddy
Playing with his sister's big eyed animal in the car. He likes to make it kiss his face.
He also likes to "help" me do laundry. He loves to climb into the laundry bins and loves to be silly and try to pull down my piles of folded laundry that are on the couch while I am folding.
I've been closing both the gates on the patio and letting him play a bit outside when I am working in the kitchen since I am just right there. One time, I peeked out to check on him and I didn't see him. I immediately thought, "oh no! He must have escaped!", but both the gates were still closed. Then I heard a noise, and guess where I found him? Yep! He had climbed in the dryer that's out on the patio :)
He is just the happiest little guy. People tell me all the time that he just seem so happy and chill and I tell them that they are right! He is so fun and such a happy little guy. He still will let other people hold him a bunch and he likes to smoke at people. He doesn't complain much and I even tell people that one time he had the stomach flu and he was still a pretty happy baby. He would throw up and then be happy again! He is also breaking through a top molar tooth right now. He's 14 months.
