Swinging Away

The girls really love playing on their swingset. Kambry was not able to swing by herself when we bought in in July. Now she can swing as high as McKenna. Here is a video of what she can do. I am so proud of her for learning all by herself. Of course it helps to have a big sister to look up to.

Just like Mommy

Kambry playing with mommy's shoes.



McKenna from when she was 1 1/2 playing with the same shoes.

I guess I should save these shoes for Aislynn to play with too.

Halloween Fun!!

We all had a really good time last night. The girls were excited to put on their costumes and go trick or treating. I think that McKenna enjoyed handing out candy as much as going and getting it at other people's houses. Kambry was a little shy but followed her sister up to each doorstep. Aislynn stayed behind this year with some friends while Bart and I took the girls through the neighborhood. We even got a little dressed up this year too. Hope you all had a great Halloween too.

Silly Aislynn

We decided to have a short photo session today when Aislynn was in a good mood. She is doing better with having good days. I love my girls!!!


McKenna must of had a rough day at school. She passed out on the couch this afternoon.

Dallas wanted his picture taken too.

Fun at the Fair

On Saturday the weather was georgous so we decided to take a trip to the annual fair and enjoy the day. It was loud, crowded and full of wonderfully fattening food. Just what you would expect. McKenna loved it, Kambry wasn't so sure about it, and Aislynn just slept the whole time. We saw a few animals and rode a few rides. The girls really wanted spray on tatoos so daddy let them each get one. It was kinda cute. After getting home from the fair we got the girls dressed in their halloween costumes and took them to a "trick or trunk" at a local church. They loved getting candy and playing in the bouncy houses. It was a fun filled day. So Sunday, we relaxed and stayed around the house. Today I am really tired. I guess the weekend wore me out.

2 Months Already!!!

Wow, I can't even begin to believe how fast the last two months have flown by. It seems like just yesterday I was still pregnant and waiting for Aislynn to get here. And now, already two months old. I took her for her well baby check up this morning. Let me tell you, I just love military clinics. You would think that the military would be more efficient but that is far from the case. My appointment was at 0900 and they want you to be there early so I arrived about 10 minutes early. I checked in and quickly was taken back to get Aislynn's vital signs. Then they say, "Wait out in the waiting room and we will call you back shortly." By now it is about 0920. Twenty minutes later I am called back into a room only to wait for another 10 minutes. The doctor came in, checked out Aislynn, and went on her way. I do have to say that she was actually really nice and didn't act as if she was in a hurry though I know she must of been from the number of people waiting in the waiting room. After being seen by the doctor I was told to wait in the waiting area once again because Aislynn needed her first set of immunizations. Around 1020 we were done, but wait. The person that gave her the shots said I needed to once again wait in the waiting room for about 10 minutes before I left to make sure she wasn't going to have a reaction to anything. Needless to say, I stayed for 5 minutes and was on my way around 1030. My morning was shot by then because I had to get McKenna at 1200. So for the stats on Aislynn. She is now 10 lbs 7 3/4 ounces and 23 3/4 inches. She is long and lean, well kinda lean. Sorry about all the talk about my appointment but is does get old having to wait and wait and wait with a 2 month old and a 2 year old. I wish someone could organize them a little more.
Tommorrow I am planning on finding a place to take the girls for some pumpkin day fun. I know a lot of places around here are doing things for Halloween and I am sure the girls would enjoy it. So, check in later this weekend to see what we did.

All about McKenna

McKenna is loving her pre-kindergarten class. Today she is on a field trip and was so excited about taking her bag lunch. I am really glad that we found out about the program because it is really preparing her for school next year. She practices writing her name just about everyday and is working on her other letters of the alphabet also. I put a picture I took of it. They teach her spanish and some sign language too which will be great to know. The other day I overheard her talking to Kambry asking her "¿Cómo estás?" and "Buenos días." She was also saying "rapido" which she learned from Dora the Explorer. It is so funny just how much they absorb at such a young age. I can't wait to see how she grows and learns in the next few years. My little girl is growing up so fast.
