Daddy's clothes

Here are the girls trying on Tony's shirts! They had a blast!

Tony received the honor of becoming a deacon at our church!! Here he is all dressed up and with a couple of the people that were there to support him! We are so proud of him. Doesn't he look handsome?

Getting closer

Well, we are still trying the baby pool in the backyard. Kennedy will get in it, but Kailtyn won't. However, they will play in the sprinkler if we keep it low.

Thank you Ya Ya

The girl's Ya Ya sent them some fun colors! Thanks!! Here they are hard at work!

My little bugs

We got the girls new sunglasses (hope they won't break them this time!) I think they look like little bugs! (and check out those cheesy smiles!)

Nope

Well, we tried the baby pool in the backyard yesterday...they hated it! Screamed and cried...
Today we tried the BIG neighborhood pool. We brought their little blow up bloats that they can sit in....
nope...screamed and cried again. Clung to me for dear life. Kennedy would gladly sit in her boat on the concrete though. I should have brought my camera with me to get that pic...
Oh well. We will keep trying. They did look super cute in their swimsuits though. :)

Water!

The girls continue to surprise me. A few days ago, Tony turned on the sprinker for them to run through....we thought it would be fun. Nooooooo. The moment they got wet they screamed and cried! They were terrified of the water!
So, we tried another idea. I don't have a sand/water table, so instead I filled up a big tub (that you use to store things in) with water and gave them cups, toys etc. That was a big hit! Kailtyn loves it the most! She will stand in front of that tub and play for hours! Kennedy likes it too, but the moment the water splashes on her she runs to me crying. We have tried this for about 3 days now, and slowly they are getting used to being wet! (Kaitlyn will get soaked and not care a bit) I was planning on breaking out their little swimming pool soon..who knows how that will go. I will keep you posted.

Sweet Kaitlyn

Kaitlyn sat right down on the mat in the kitchen and decided to pose for me. Scooter too.

The many faces of Kennedy

She continues to amaze us with how many funny faces she can make...these are just a few.

Mother's Day surprises

Tony did great on Mother's day! He bought me roses, 4 books I have been wanting (on parenting etc), perfume and a spa day!!!! I'm so blessed! I have the best husband ever!
