The Zoo...

Yesterday we went to the Phoenix zoo with Corinne, Kam, Shanna, Porter, Hunter and miss Emma! It was a lot of fun and when we got home Preston told me he wanted to go to the zoo everyday haha! 

This was our group of boys checking out the zebra!

And my Miss Lylah girl being a sweetheart...

Preston and Kamden LOVED their water area. Its pretty cool with a tunnel that leads to a slide, though I don't even think any of our kids tried the slide haha! 

Preston splashed water in Kams face and thought it was funny but look at poor kams face! 

This picture was blurry but Preston took Kamden by the hand and was showing him other parts of the water place and it was so cute...

After all the water fun we changed the kids and got lucky when we saw a big orangutan monkey eating some lettuce. The kids (and us as well) just thought it was so cool.

Preston and Hunter on the Lizard...Preston just kept giving it hugs haha

On our way to the petting zoo little Kamden zonked out in his stroller and it was just so cute.

The big boys...

They had tractors for the kids to sit on at the petting zoo and Preston was SO excited. He loves tractors!

The boys went in to pet the goats...

We stopped at another play area so the kids could play and this peacock was driving us crazy haha it kept coming over and looking for food and making us nervous around the kids.

Lylah liked the break from her stroller

Lylah with her Aunt Corinne

And here is Lylahs little friend Emma...isn't she just a doll! We are just a little jealous of all her hair!

We couldn't get the girls to smile but here they are together. They are about 3 months apart but about the same size!

And before we left we let the boys ride the carousal. Preston of course chose the shark!

It was a fun fun day!!!

Me and Spencer actually got a babysitter and we got to go out on a date last night! It turned out to be a great day!

Brother and Sisterly love...

My kids love each other. Preston is beyond excited when Lylah wakes up in the morning and showers her with kisses and hugs and " Good Morning YyYah's ". And Lylah smiles so big you can see those 2 bottom teeth. Preston loves to share his toys and Lylah actually likes the cars and tools more then she does her stuffed animals and dolls. I just absolutely love the little bond they have and I just hope it stays this way forever...

Today Preston decided to jump in Lylahs crib with her when we went in to get her from her nap...she was pretty excited to have a friend in there with her. These two are pretty silly to take pictures of...I tell ya it is HARD to get one picture of the both of them smiling normally haha!

Well facebook made me switch to the dumb timeline profile and so I was in need of a cover photo and since my kids were being smiley and sweet to each other I decided to try and get a cute picture of them together...lets just say it took a LOT of time and a LOT of effort. I was jumping, make weird noises and being seriously just a crazy person trying to get them to both smile. These are a few of the pictures I got...

I don't think a night goes by that me and Spencer don't talk about how adorable and funny our kids are. We couldn't possibly love them any more then we do now. They are just perfect. xoxo.

It's hot enough for water!...

It got to 100 degrees this weekend. We were planning on going to the lake Saturday but when those plans fell through we decided to get the slip and slide out and have a BBQ with Danny and Alyssa. It was a fun night! Preston LOVED this slip n slide...

I realized after a little while that I was filming side ways and turned the camera to fix it haha so sorry for my horrible filming but I had to share it anyways because Preston is just too cute in it! My favorite part is " Lets do that again!" 

7 Months...

Lylah is growing too fast! I'm seriously complaining right now. 7 months...seriously!? Time goes WAY too quick for my liking. I REALLY would LOVE it if it would just sssllloooww down. 

But here we are...My sweetest little girl is 7 months old. I love her. I love her smile. I love her sweet personality. I love her laugh. I love her roundness. I love squeezing her. I love those thighs. I love her 2 little teeth. I love her super short and chubby feet. I love how she loves to be held. I love how much she loves me. I just love being her mom. 

We saw her doctor in between her 6 and 7 month check up and these were her stats:

• Weight - 75% -17 lbs 13 oz...Im sure shes 18 lbs now haha
• Height - 65% - 26 1/2 
• Head Circumference - 60% - 17 "

Miss Lylah can now roll around the whole house, shes even picked up her knees a few times but shes not crawling just yet. 

She has her 2 bottom teeth and they are sooo cute!

She says "MaMa" and she says it a lot and really good now! I tried catching it on video yesterday and she stops as soon as i turn the video camera on and she just stares at the light haha but I'll get it soon!

Shes in the fun stage of wanting to put everything in her mouth...

Shes been sleeping WAY better. She goes down around 8:30 and then wakes up at 4 am and then again until about 8. 

She loves playing (eating) cars with her brother.

Loves her dada to death, she gets so excited to see him when he gets home and in the morning.

Shes ticklish.

I can't help but squeeze and kiss her about a million times a day.

I don't know what we ever did without this girl. We love her SOO much!!

My head in a book...

I love to read. But I honestly just hadn't had time to read a book in such a long time until just a few days ago. Have you heard of Nie Nie's book " Heaven is Here "? I honestly couldn't get myself to stop reading it. This was me every spare second I had for probably 2 days...

It made me stop and think and look at my life a little differently. I am extremely blessed. If you can, I would HIGHLY recommend to read it. :)

Oh and here's a picture of that sweet girl of mine...don't worry I think I squeeze her enough for everybody ;)

 

Egg decorating and an egg hunt...

We decorated eggs this year...it was more of a hit with us adults rather then the two boys that I had originally bought them for. haha. It was fun and boy did Preston have a blast finding the eggs in an egg hunt in the backyard. I think we had to of hid those eggs at lease 10 times. He wanted to play again, again, and again!

  

Yes my Mom, Dad and sister Courtney were up for the weekend. My kids were in heaven they got to spend time with their Grammy and Papa. We love and miss them so much already. 

And here is a cute video of Preston counting his eggs...he's too cute for words so just watch :)!
