Sooo BiG

I can not believe how fast these girls are growing! The time has literally flown by! My baby is huge, now she is a jabber monkey, with lightening speed! I swear she says Hi, she might call me DaDaDaDa every now and then, but she definitely knows that I am her MaMaMa!
Addie is so funny. I has turned into a BiG girl! She was once my itty bitty hip attachment! She is a knock knock joke, "angee birds" addicted big girl!
Avery wants so badly to be just like her big sister. I am going to be in big trouble when I'm out numbered. Paul and his mini-mes are not know for their healthy diets. Noodles and Pop Tarts seem to be the only food that Avery likes to eat.
With warm weather frequenting our afternoons we have been thoroughly enjoying the backyard. Avery Loves LOve Loves her swing. I swear the swing is laced with something. It totally makes Ave mellow. She has even been known to fall asleep in it.
Addie has put a whole new meaning to sliding into 1st. I honestly don't know how she comes up with this stuff, we aren't even baseball fans. She taps the plate, throws the bat, and runs the bases. She even made mitts out of her water wings. Smart little cookie.
Avery is also a smart little nut. don't be fooled by her attempt to eat the IPad. She knows how to play her pond game and loves to watch, "angee birds".
I have two beautiful little girls who can light up a room and charm a stranger. But even divas need their beauty sleep.
Especially when they are busy crawlking around the house. Today I watched her walk with her toy for the first time. Avery and Addie are turning into cute little buddies. I absolutely love when I walk into a room and hear them laughing and playing together, it makes all the "No Baby No's" worth it!

Never a Dull Moment

Every morning starts with a smile at our house. Avery wakes up every morning with a gummy smile big bright eyes peeking over the top of her bed ready for an adventure.
The rest of the family is a bit slower and less anxious to start the day. Addie was more than thrilled to have her morning snuggles with Auntie MoMo. MoMo never hesitates to enjoy a chance to be lazy, especially when Addie is around. Addie can wear a person out, just by looking at you!
Addie conqueror of all! She may look like a sweet innocent girl, don't be fooled.
Speaking of being fooled. I know, I know how could I possibly be a day over 25. But it is true, I just celebrated my first of many 29th birthdays! Addie loves birthdays, whats not to love! Cake, presents, singing, what 3 year old wouldn't want to join in!

Miss Avery has officially graduated to the giant baby cage! We tried playing outside, but Addie wouldn't share her toys, Avery kept eating the dirt, and Mom couldn't get any yard work done! Thank You Trampoline, I will take whatever I can get!
Miss Addie June has been begging us to play Rock Band, and finally we gave in. By the looks of it we are going to have two little rockers on our hands. Avery was our back up dancer, while Addie was our drummer/dancer/singer. She is really talented.
Documented for the nonbelievers out there! Addie and Avery actually played together! It is true, they shared a bath without tears, and shouting "No Baby NO" miracle I say.
Just when I think that I have made progress, I end up 2 steps back! Avery has figured out how to climb up on things. She hears me doing dished and hustles on over to "help".
Addie likes to help too. She thought that she would help me water the yard, by chasing her with hose. Not exactly the yard work I had in mind, but why not!

It was a sad day when Auntie MoMo had to hit the road. Mostly I am amazed that there was even room for Addie to get into the car! MoMo's car is very carefully locked and loaded. Cross your fingers that she doesn't get a flat. She would have better luck calling AAA and having them bring her a new tire than digging her spare out! Did I mention that the drivers door is the only openable door. Good Luck MoMo we will miss you!
