Chompers and a few more pics I forgot...

Hailey's been growing her incisors... all four of them are thru and growing in quickly...

I LOVE to watch my Boo boo sleep. She LOVES her blankies and stuffed toys. It's too hot right now for all her handmade blankies in the crib, so... she only has three of them in the pic.

Hailey, my "Burger King Princess..." Hee he. This was her first experience at a play place inside a fast food restaurant. She and Miss Marlee had a blast!

Hailey's little friend, "Marlee." The girls were Burger King Princesses for the afternoon. It was their first play date to Burger King :) Natasha (my good friend/neighbor) watches kids and Hailey just loves to have play dates with them.

Hailey on the strip... on our way to get my friend Megan... who came for a visit.

above is another pic of Hay in the garden at Bellagio

Those who've been to Vegas will recognize the pic above. It's Dale Chihuly's Glass Art in the Bellagio entrance... Hailey LOVES to see this exhibit. She points, claps, and jabbers all with a huge smile on her face!

Some pics from my phone while the computer was down...

While the computer was down Hailey learned some new things. She say's "A B C," and counts "1.. 2.. 3," she now can say "YES (while throwing both hands up in the air with real accomplishment)," she said "Mom... where'd you go?" and "Dad.. where are you?" She's turning into quite the big little girl too fast. We bought her a potty last weekend and to my surprise she's "gone" 5 times! All of which were her request... two of them during her nap time. Today She pooped on the potty for the first time. Sounds silly, but, I was excited! I am very proud of my little beauty and love having her in my life! Hailey and I spent a morning on the strip last week... She really likes the Bellagio flowers. Below is a pic of her in the Bellagio gardens.

Hailey has jumped in the pool twice now with her clothes and all!

water guns make the best toys!

Learning how to blow bubbles...

Hailey LOVES to drink from a straw!

I'm always finding new ways for us to keep cool... Hailey really liked this one!


Hailey's shoes of choice lately... Mama and Daddy's flip flops!


"Hay loves to wear our shoes"

"Mama" caught the ice cream truck and surprised everyone with yummy COLD treats. Aaron ate a Bomb-Pop, I had a Sour Apple Snow Cone, Allana had a Watermelon Snow Cone, and Hailey's was Bubblegum flavored.

I felt bad... Hailey's little face was extremely chapped in a few places the next day :( We had to make her stop eating it. She LOVED it!!!

Allana's snow cone was Watermelon... one of her favorite flavors!

Allana's snow cone got away from her :)

Allana and "Megan," Allana's friend from Primary, at Mission Hills Park splash pad. We all met there for a picnic and lots of water play. It was a great day!

Hay had just as much fun sitting and watching everyone as she did running thru the water at Mission Hills Park's splash pad. I would have taken more pics, but, I was just as soaked as the girls! We had a blast.

I took just Allana to the local Multi-Gen. She MADE me go down the waterslide, too! We had a blast.

Hay's first experience at a splash pad... she RAN and SCREAMED with complete joy the entire time! She was soaked and cried when it was time to go home.

Our monitor is finally working... here's some more pics:

The girls in the backyard on the 4th of July... Allana was teaching Hailey how to throw those "Pop-its" They had a great time.

Aaron, Connie, and Allana put this together... in the previous post you can see it in progress. We're going to frame it for Allana. She's going to hang it in her room in California.


My little 4th of July cutie:


For Allana's birthday, we had Macaroni and Cheese pizza (her favorite from Cici's). Then we watched "Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief. (a very good movie by the way... I didn't expect it to be that good.) "We celebrated with Popcorn, Birthday Cake, lots of love and laughter!

Allana has been dying to play Tennis for a very long time. We surprised her with this for her 10th Birthday. She's not 10 until the 16th of July, but, we won't have her this year on her birthday. So... we had an early but nice celebration.

Mmmm... chocolate cake

HAPPY 10TH BIRTHDAY, SIS!!!
