A whole new world

I just thought that Kirbee was a handful when she was little- not really. From the very beginning Saydee has been the opposite of what most say there second child is, she has always been very layed back- go-with-the-flow type girl. Kirbee was an easy baby too just a little more high maintenance. Ever since Saydee started crawling she can get into everything and anything! She watches and copies everything that Kirbee does and gets very mad if she can't do it. We have stairs in our house and I don't think Kirbee discovered them until after she was one, not Saydee we have caught her up the stairs at least twice. I know what you are thinking why don't you put up a gate? Tried that and caught her climbing up and almost over the gate!! She is a very fast crawler and is starting to walk but most of the time can go fast enough so she just gets down and crawls. I say all of that just to say that I have some cute pictures of her to post.

I have a cute video to go with this but I can never seem to get it to work. I am not sure if it is the computer or what?!

She can fall asleep on the hard floor and have Kirbee walk and fall over her one hundred times and not wake up but don't try laying her in her soft bed all by herself!! Don't you like her matching pj's? I am not one to have unmatching pjs (for my kids anyways) but lately it seems like I find the top and not the bottoms or the bottoms and not the tops!! Oh well we are just sleeping!

Enjoying the well needed rain...

OK- Maybe I am back now!

I just thought I would have more time to blog this summer-WRONG! I don't even know where to start so I will just post summer pictures. Corey is officially deployed now and I am working on new bedtime routines for the girls so that MAYBE I will have some time to myself in the evenings when school starts(next week) we will see how it goes- lots of prayers please! Although I would like to say that Kirbee has now slept all night in her own big girl "Little Mermaid" bed!! YEAH KIRBEE!!! Will post pictures soon.

Enjoy these for now...

Mommy and the girls!

Kirbee playing mommy although Saydee is just about as big as she is!

Saydee showing Kirbee she can do anything she can do (and that is an understatement!)

We took a trip with Mimi and Grandpa to visit family in Branson, will hopefully post a video and more pictures later!


We got to visit daddy in Arizona for a week. Here is Kirbee and daddy playing on one of the many playgrounds out there! She just adores her daddy!

Here is Saydee going down the slide with daddy- although she doesn't really need help- she can do it all by herself! She loves her daddy too!

There is a small taste of what we have been doing this summer- will post more soon! Sorry for those of you who actually check to see what is going on and you keep seeing the same things. Oh and by the way Saydee is walking so I will try and show a video if I can get it to work- I haven't had very much luck with videos. Have a great day!

Pictures

Saydee enjoying the pool!

Kirbee at Chuckie Cheese.
Kirbee and Saydee riding a ride together- Saydee loves it, maybe more than Kirbee!
Trying to take a picture of all of us- notice we are all looking different directions and one is screaming!!

Saydee standing up.

Cute girls- posing for pictures.

Can you get into anything else?

I love being home with the girls although we have been on the go this week. I am a JH cheer coach so I have been busy with practice this week. However Kirbee loves cheering with the girls- if she has asked me once this week she has asked 100 times for some "pom-pons mom". She is so cute she is in the phase where she wants you to watch her do everything-I love it!

Saydee is also busy getting into everything. She is now at the stage where she pulls herself up and wants to walk so bad that she can't stand it. Of course sometimes she gets up and goes right back down with the help of big sis! She follows Kirbee or myself everywhere and if she can't find us then she just finds something to eat or get into. Here is an example of her getting into the clean clothes I was folding.
Just joking the pics aren't working will try again later!

School is Out!!

School is officially out...YIPEE!! Hopefully I will have more time to blog now. Will try to start up again soon- however I will still be working with my cheerleaders so I will still be busy but not EVERYDAY!! Chat again soon.

A Busy Weekend

We had a very eventful Memorial Day Weekend. We got in a lot of family time in just a few days. I won't bore you with words but just wanted to show you some pictures and a video!

It began with a trip to the Dallas Zoo! (Those of you from DBU we saw Zach there!)

Paitently waiting to get started!

Saydee loved watching the penguins!

Kirbee cracked up when the penguins dove into the water!

After running a few more errands in town we headed to Grandmommies house to go swimming!

And then it was bath time!!

On Sunday Kirbee went to her first dance recital- she did not get to perform on stage but she did get to go up and get a perfect attendance medal for our Mommy and Me Class. I will have to put the video of her dancing on later. I tried today but I think my computer might be tired- I don't think it is working but for some reason if it shows up enjoy!

We did lots of other things too- like visit Mimi and Grandpa's donkies, went to two cookouts, rode in the wagon and of course went swimming some more. I will update with some more pictures later this week. Hope you enjoyed!

"Poop Daddy"

Oh the joys of potty training. Kirbee for the most part is potty trained now. I can't believe I am saying that- it seems like she was starting to crawl- it goes so fast! We had a funny incident happen on Sunday. It was Corey and my 6 year anniversary and because Corey is the best husband in the whole world he went with me shopping after coming back from our weekend away (where I shopped some more), Corey decided to take Kirbee to one store and I took Saydee to a different, we were not there long when Corey and Kirbee came back because he said she needed to go potty. She never said anything when she got to me so I just thought she was just wanting to test out the bathroom, like we do every place we go, I continued to shop and had gone into the dressing room when I heard this voice "Alicia, can you come out here please." I went out, in the clothes I was trying on, and to my dismay I say a "poop" lying in the floor!! Kirbee had told her daddy "poop daddy," Corey thought she was saying that she needed to poop, but what she was saying was that there was poop on the floor! She had pooped in her panties and then it fell out I guess. I told Corey to hurry and take her to the potty and I would change and be there as soon as I could. When I got to the bathroom, just one in the whole store, I saw Corey standing there- door wide open, with Kirbee trying to get the poop off! What a sight and a great daddy for helping! Daddy left and mommy took over- we got it cleaned up and checked out. Of course at the counter I had to tell the lady that I thought their toilet was overflowing. I didn't mention it was our fault! I won't mention what store we were at just in case we aren't asked to come back! By the way I did clean up the poop that was on the floor before we left. What great memories!
