Julia & Justin's Wedding

Julia and Justin's wedding was one to remember.  Dad, Mom, Laura Hope, Boomer, and I went on Saturday.  I think the picture may sum up how much fun we had.

Dustan stayed at my parents house with the girls, and allowed me to have some fun with my parents sis, and bro. 
Love you Dustan-

A few funny pics


So, Dustan and Sophie were playing in the Living Room.  I had to take a picture. 
As you can clearly see daddy has passed out, and Sophie has lovingly covered him with all the blankets she could find.  Sophie has then taken it upon herself to entertain herself.  I love these guys!

Cute

Why do kids think so hard over all things!  Sophie and Lily both give me this kind of concentration all the time.  













Lily got sick on Monday at school so I left work half done, and went to pick her up.  We had a quite afternoon, until Dustan brought sister Sophie home. Lily has a massive cold (she seems better today), and hopefully I don't get a call today.  I also hope neither Sophie or I catch this thing. Yuck.
BTW: no movie and cereal for dinner, Lily would not hear of it:)

Hummm,

Yesterday we had Church in the morning, and then the end of the year ATS party at our house in the evening.  Yard work, cleaning the house, and just getting dressed seemed to wear us all down.  We were all exhausted this morning, and I got to work a half hour late (Not bad for waking up an hour later than usual).  The girls and I need a break this evening.  I think we may just eat cereal, and have movie night.  Yes, Yes I think that is a plan:).

Great Time!

I wanted to post some of the pics from the Library on Tuesday. We had a great time.





We also got to go dress shopping yesterday with my oldest sister Julie.  If I can take a minute to brag on my kids they were amazing, and allowed me to be there for my sister while she picked out a wedding dress. Awesome Time!

So, I realized after I posted the video of Sophie on her bike that I should put one of Lily on here. (Please excuse the coughing in the background Sophie is still not quite well.)  Lily is moving and shaking!  She will be crawling before I blink I am sure.

We went to the Library yesterday, and enjoyed a new children's display they have up.  The display consist of giant padded books (perfect to climb on).  Sophie loved it! Lily giggled, laughed and rolled all around.  We read about 6 books, and just had a great time.  I think Sophie would have staid all day if she had her way, but sadly we had to leave to nap.
Art Lesson came next, and as always I had a great time talking "art" with my kids, I even wrangled my babysitter into sitting as a model for a few minutes.
Then we went and had dinner with Daddy at the Field House here on campus. Hot Dogs and  Hamburgers always taste better when I don't have to cook them :)

Woo... what a weekend

Sophie came down with a fever on Thursday afternoon, so forgive me missing posting for so long.
For the record; I do not like my daughters being sick, but  the one on one time we get together is pretty wonderful.
On Wednesday night I took a video of Sophie riding her bike.  She is doing pretty awesome if I do say so myself.  I do need to work on getting her going straight soon.  I don't want her getting too dizzy.

On Thursday I went to my annual docs apt. and Soph stayed with Nana.  Lily came with me.  The nurses and Doctor made a fuss over Lily like they always do over little ones.  When I got back to Nana's, Soph went down for a nap, and woke up with a screaming fever. (No fun).  We stayed for dinner, so I could hold Sophie while Nana watched Lily, and made dinner(Yah for mommas!).  Then we got home, and Sophie fell straight to sleep.  Friday she still had a fever, so I took Lily to school, and came home to a house with just me and Sophie.  We played, cuddled, and watched TV.  For lunch she was feeling better(Tylenol), so we splurged on a happy meal from McDonalds.  Daddy was gone all day Saturday, so I was just me and the girls.  We played, but Sophie mainly slept.  By the evening her fever had broken.  Sunday was tiring, but Sophie was a champ and made it through 2 hours.  When we got home, she was ready for another nap.  We are all back at school and work today.  I hope both girls are having a great day!
