Random Pictures

I purchased Carlee her first pair of fairy wings. They came with a back pack I bought for her to take to school. We were outgrowing the diaper bag:( Anyway...Peyton of course thought he looked cute! I put them on Carlee and she screamed. She had just woke up from a nap and was VERY crabby. She must not have felt in the "fairy" mood. We will try again later!




Yesterday is was 95 in the East Valley. We went over to Paul and Katie's to enjoy their new water slide. Carlee was being Carlee. I put her feet in the water and she freaked! I ended up holding her the whole day. She is cutting more teeth; life is miserable for her right now!



Peyton always enjoys himself on the slide.


I forget why he had this face, but Dave says that this is what I look like when I am unhappy:)


The sun was a little bright!



She found her sunglasses. They were in the toy box. You can see a little silly putty on one of the lenses. She didn't seem to mind!



Dave left the bag of chips in Carlee's reach. This is what happened! They didn't seem to mind.



Carlee wanted to share with Mommy. I only ate the chips that were on the top of the pile!


We have beautiful nights here in Arizona. Peyton got a bike from Granny and Aunt Bibby for Christmas and just recently learned how to really ride it! He can now ride around the whole block!


Carlee and I follow along. You better believe she wants to be riding on Peyton's bike!





Here you see brother and sister watching cartoons together. They sat there for at least 30-45 minutes. It was precious!

Cool Camera

Most of you know that I have camera issues. Easter morning my camera decided, after years of capturing thousands of our family memories, to break!! UGH! Well, I have a wonderful friend you just bought a really cool camera....you'll see the pictures she took below....But she GAVE me her old camera! What a sweetheart! I am glad I have a camera that works now. I am really jealous of Olivia's camera. I have been asking for YEARS for a really nice camera. I love taking pictures. It has become a hobby of mine. I have been wanting to take a photography class for a long time. I must get a new camera!

Check out what Olivia's camera can do....

Preschool Days


Carlee and I are all decked out in our "Sports" clothes. It was wear your favorite team day at school. We supported our Colts! Poor Peyton stayed home sick that day.
















Peyton enjoys coming to Mommy's classroom. He doesn't seem to like listening to Ms. Allie. We are working on it!











Silly Daddy! Peyton has been going through a daddy phase lately. I like seeing the two of them together!











Well, say a little prayer for Carlee. She got several shots today at the doctor. Her poor little legs are tiny anyway....but to see 4 big bandaids on them makes me sad. She is growing up too fast. The doctor says she looks great! She is in the 27th percentile in weight, and 90th in height. Both of my kids had the same numbers. Tall and skinny! We pray that they continue to grow healthy and tall!
Must go....children are demanding mommy!

Spring Break


I am so glad that my mom and sister were able to come out to Arizona for Spring Break. It was an exciting trip because neither had ever been here before, and my mom had never flown. She was so excited. We had such a wonderful time. They stayed at a nice hotel with a pool, which Peyton really enjoyed. We did lots of shopping of course. Let's just say we spent 6 hours in the Arizona Mills Mall!!!! YES, 6 hours... I really believe that my sister could have stayed longer! The kids were real troopers, surprisingly. Libby, just know that I love you dearly to stay in a mall that long with two kids:) We got to eat at the Rainforest Cafe, which was Peyton's favorite part. He said.."This is the coolest, eating in the jungle" He probably said it 5 or 6 different times. We also took a road trip to Salt River Canyon....beautiful drive, if you are not all the way in the back of the SUV.....I might just have to start claiming that I get car sick. Oh wait a minute...Libby has already claimed that our entire lives:) LOL!! Dave and I are defiantly going back without the kids so that we can raft down the river...it was so amazing! I will share with you some of the photos from the trip...keep in mind that my camera's LCD screen is broken and I have no view hole thingy...so we just point and snap... and pray for a good shot!



Aunt Bibby and Peyton forever!
