Go Mommy Go!

I had the pleasure this morning of hearing once again my precious Addi chant "Go Mommy Go" as I crossed the finish line of my first Super Sprint Triathalon. I actually got to hear it several times as my wonderfully dedicated mother made out to watch the whole race start to finish with both girls in tow :) I was actually a great way to start out Mother's Day. Here is as pic with my awesome racing buddies following the race.

Happy Easter

The bunny never fails to treat the kids well..Addi and Pey both got a basket full of goodies and toys while Jordan got a basket full of lottery tickets and cash. All seemed equally pleased :)

First off dying eggs-Gramma came over to help

The week was full of Easter parties and lots of egg hunts. We finished off with an egg hunt at church and lunch downtown at an Indian restaurant-breaking away fom our traditional Easter brunch. Thank god I got this picture of the girls before the church service. Peyton had the most horendous bloody nose after church that kept going and going. I'm talking like 30 minutes while applying pressure. I actually had to call the nursess line for help to get it to stop! I never would have thought to have her blow her nose as it was bleeding??? Thank god for the wonderful nurses who had to work on Easter sunday!

Happy 2nd Birthday Peyton!

We had a fun filled weekend celebrating Peyton's 2nd birthday. We had her party on Saturday and lots of friends came over to celebrate with us. The girls had so much fun...they had to of spent at least 6 hours in the pool! Peyton was exceptionally cute when we sang Happy Birthday to her. (I was in charge of the camera and Roger had the video.) Instead of waiting for everyone to sing to her, she sang along...louder than everyone else :) Too bad Roger forgot to hit record!!! Here are a few pictures from her party.

These are from Sunday...her actual birthday. This girl knows how to make a MESS!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PEYTON...I CAN'T IMAGINE LIFE WITHOUT YOU. YOU HAVE MADE THIS FAMILY COMPLETE. YOU ARE MY SPUNKY BUT SNUGGLY LITTLE MONSTER AND I LOVE EVERY SINGLE BIT OF YOU WITH ALL MY HEART! XOXO MOMMY!

Picture Results

**I have tried a million times to save this with the right spacing but for some reason it will not let me...grrr**

First off...here is my proof that Peyton was less than cooperative! STINKER!

We did get some good pics though. Too bad Pey isn't really smiling in most of them but at least she isn't sticking out her tongue (like they say she did numerous times!)

Bluebonnets

Took the girls for Bluebonnet pictures this year...pretty pleased with the results :)

Spring Soccer

We just started spring soccer at the Y again. Each year we seem to have more friends on our team which makes it just as fun for Addi as it does for mommy :) She is working extra hard this year to chase after the ball and still jumps for joy each time she touches it during a game. No goals yet but she is actually a pretty decent goalie! Here are a few pics from this season so far...

Here are a few shots of the goalie in action. The second picture is of the ball deflecting off her leg from a goal she saved. Check out her perfect stance :)

Future soccer star?

Family Picture disaster

I love getting pictures taken of the kids but once a year I *try* to get pictures of the entire family together. A very head strong, do it her own way, almost 2 yr old made this task very daunting! Actually it was almost to the point of embarrassment. I was so focused on Peyton and her non-compliance that I am not even sure if I smiled. But one thing can be said for sure...my precious sweet compliant Addi was smiling the entire time I bet :) So, we finally leave and the photographers try to convince me they got a shot...the jury is still out if you ask me. We go on to lunch and look at his... a perfect, happy, smiling little girl..all on her terms! Too bad they are all on a weird miniature cow! GRRRRR!
