Memorial Day

We had a great day with Daddy home! First, the girls stayed home with him while my friend Missy and I team taught a super kick-your-butt class. This was after class... should have gotten one before all the sweat!
Sunday night we attempted to go to our neighborhood pool. Unfortunately, swim diapers don't hold much water and our girl drinks a TON. So, as our internet guy was here fixing our computer, she went through two diapers, peed on the floor, and then we didn't have any more swim diapers left! So sad. Look how cute she looked!

So, yesterday I got her a new inflatable pool from Walmart for $15! It's huge, too! I think Scott actually had just as much fun as Addison. Hopefully this made up for the night before when we couldn't go! Later we went to Missy's house. She LOVED the trampoline!



Baby sis as always-just hanging out!

Tulsa Zoo Trip


We went to the Tulsa Zoo this morning. We went early, but it was still HOT!! Addison loved petting the goats and enjoyed the camel ride. She wasn't afraid AT ALL-she walked right up the steps to the camel and hopped on without even looking back to see where I was!



Yes, they have a place where you can thoroughly wash your hands!





Emma didn't even know she was at the zoo!

Outside Pics

After I finished mowing the grass tonight, I got a few pics of Addie playing outside. (YES, I mow the grass sometimes! It's one of the few times that my pale body gets to see the sun!) She loves this big car. She was too busy to sit still for long!

On another note, I have been super busy lately that I haven't watched much TV at all. Scott has been loving it-he is watching basketball every night! So, what am I doing?
It's been a week since I started and I'm already on the last book in the series. I'm really enjoying reading and I don't even like reading! And, it's a little crazy how 3 of my friends and I talked about this book for a good while at dinner last night!
Anyway, loving Edward. Loving their love story. Can't wait to see how it ends.

Rain Boots and Tornado Siren!

We had some rain today, so Addison decided she needed to put her rain boots and hat on while she played inside.

She still loves her baby dolls and plays with them constantly. She even pretended her little toy vacuum was a baby yesterday-she flung it over her shoulder and was trying to burp it!

Tonight we've had a good line of thunderstorms come our way. The tornado siren has gone off twice so far, but not for long. I can't remember the last time the sirens went off near our house. I think it was before Addison was born! So, we piled into our guest bathroom, making sure that Addison had something fun to do while we waited!

Yummy Lasagna Rolls

Do you ever find yourself fixing the same things each month for dinner? I do! I've been searching for new, different recipes on foodnetwork.com and came across this delicious meal from Giada De Laurentiis. I was actually looking for another recipe of hers that I didn't find, but this was great!

*I love this website because you can read everyone's comments to see how you need to change it before you try it! I made twice the amount of white sauce (as everyone suggested) and instead of using whole milk, ricotta cheese, and proscuitto I used 2% milk, low fat cottage cheese and deli ham I already had in the refrigerator.
Enjoy!

Two months old!

Emma turned 2 months old this past Saturday! We had her Dr. appointment today and she is 11 1/2 pounds now, a half pound heavier than Addison was at the same time. She is now smiling and talking to us, which is a lot of fun.


This one cracks me up-I can see her giving me this smile later when she is older and is trying to get out of being in trouble!


Someone else wanted her picture taken. Trust me, it is VERY hard to get her to smile now! I kept saying, "No, don't you give me a smile!" It worked!?! She thought I was so funny! I loooooooove those curls!

It's HOT!

It was HOT here in Tulsa today... 90 degrees! Thankfully, it will be in the low 70s tomorrow. It's crazy how quickly the weather can change out here, and to such extremes! I'm not quite ready for those temps yet! I decided to make the most of it and get Addison out in her swimsuit. I tried to introduce her again to the sprinkler, but when that cold water touched her foot, she would have nothing more to do with it! Such a girl:)
Isn't she a cutie? She looks so big!

Emma: ~8 weeks

Here's our cutie...she's almost 8 weeks old! You can't really tell from the picture, but her hair is a little curly/crazy after she gets a bath. It straightens within an hour, but it's definitely curly for a little bit!
Here is Addison around 10 weeks old. I still think they look a lot alike, though Addison definitely had much longer hair! I'll have to take a picture in a couple of weeks of Emma in that same outfit and then compare the two girls:)
