Princess "Camp"

This past week Sydnee went to day camp at her preschool. It was princess themed and all the girls came dressed as princesses. She absolutely loved it! They did lots of fun things. They made a crown, a princess hat with flowing ribbons, painted beautiful flowers, colored pictures of princesses, made jewelry, ate pink cookies and had a picnic with the cowboy camp. It's hard to believe she is growing up so fast. I can't believe she will be 4 next month!

4th/Swimming/Randomness

We have teeth! Aubree & Kilee both have 2 teeth now! Kilee got hers really close together. Aubers has had one for quite a while and her second one just popped through yesterday. They are growing so fast! As of their 9 month well baby check they are exactly the same height (almost 30 inches, 94th percentile!) and only 4 oz. apart in weight. I sure love these little girls!

The other day Sydnee & I were outside with Jake and she said "Mom!, look there's a rainbow!" It was so beautiful I just had to get a picture!

The girls all ready to go out swimming. It was the twins first time. Kilee loves the water, but Aubree screams if we even put her feet in. We'll have to work on that!

This year for the 4th we decided to just do fireworks at the house rather than drag the twins somewhere. Here's Sydnee with her sparkler. This is the first year she has been brave enough to actually hold one.

Fun in the Summer Sun!

Sometimes the kids and I go and have lunch with Sloan at work. This past week we picked up a pizza and all went to the park near his work. After we ate, the kids played on the playground for a while. They all had fun and the twins especially loved the baby swings.

Sydnee has been taking swimming lessons for the last 2 weeks at the Veterans Memorial Pool in Pleasant Grove. She did an awesome job! She passed her class (the preschool level) and is ready to move on to level I next summer. She had a really fun time and has become a lot braver in the water.

It doesn't get much cuter than this............

Random Pics from the last few weeks :-)

The pool at our complex opened up last Friday and Syd has been soooo anxious to go swimming. She seems to be a lot braver this year than last. She actually asked to go in the big pool. We plan to go alot the next couple of weeks to "practice" before she starts swimming lessons.

Goggle girl!

Our Little Graduate!!

This past Wednesday Sydnee graduated from her first year of preschool at Little Scholars Academy. We are so proud of her! She worked so hard to learn her part for graduation. I told her if she said her part in front of all the people at graduation, I would let her pick something out at the store. She ended up picking out a princess dress-up playset, which was good, because she is going to Princess day camp at her preschool later this summer and she has to dress like a princess. We are going to continue to work on her letters and sounds this summer so she is all ready for next year!

Happy 29th Birthday to my Honey!!!

It's a bit early, but Sloan's 29th birthday is this coming Saturday (Yes, he is 4 1/2 years younger) I am in my thirties, he call's me an "oldie, but a goody". I would like to take this opportunity to list a few things I love about the old man.

*He's a kind and patient husband that puts up with a lot from me
*He's a great dad to our 3 girls
*Even though he's already awesome, he continues to strive to be better in the above 2 things
*He works really hard to support our family, even working 70 hours at times
*I love his hairy back, (sorry too much info, but it's true)
*He willingly changes poopy diapers, even when I'm home to do it
*He's been dealt a rough hand in life, but has risen above it and will do anything to make sure his girls have a good life.
*He can clean a bathroom and mop a floor WAY better than I can

And there are many, many more!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY SLOANER! luv ya! ;)
