looky

We went to a photo party with homeshade photography this past Sunday. It was so much fun. We had a 30 min time slot and are going to get 1 8x10 and 2 5x7s for 40.00. She provided the clothes and bows for us to wear and then brought the backdrop and flooring. I haven't seen the pictures yet but this is a "sneak peek" of 2 she sent me. Reese of course sat very still and was a little hard to get a smile out of. Saige was the one running wild and trying to take the lights down :) I really really wanted one of them together but I'm not sure if we were able to. Saige wouldn't really sit long enough for us to try. Heres the ones I have so far of the girls. We can't wait to see the rest!

First haircut

After 2 years and 10 months Reese finally got her very first haircut. Aaron and I took the girls to the mall and we stopped by visible changes (and they really aren't that expensive) and Jenny cut her hair. Reese sat very still and watched. She did great. They gave us a special card and a lock of her hair to keep and Reese got a sucker as well! Heres some shots of her haircut (they didnt take much off...just shaped it some)

Summer fun crafts

We did a really fun craft I got from another blog. First we poured water into the ice tray and then I let Reese put food coloring drops into each cube. She had fun seeing how colors are mixed. She would say "it changed it changed" then I cut up some straws and she dropped one into each one. We put it in the freezer and this is what we got! :) She was able to "paint" with the ice. Saige thought it was a popsicle and kept saying "pop pop" but it was fun summer outside activity. The girls also thought it was fun to "paint" themselves.

Bradleys Birthday!

We had a great time at Bradley's birthday party!! There was a clown and REAL monkey. The monkey freaked me out but hte kids LOVED it!

TROUBLE

This is the kind of thing I walk into often. I keep thinking things are baby proofed and safe but Saige finds a way to climb :) This chair is now in the garage. The kitchen table chairs are basicly put away. I don't know what to do when she can climb the couch by herself. haha

Thanks Nana

Nana bought the girls these sweet little dresses. We love them and they are getting good use.

Aquarium

When we got back from San Antonio we decided to take the girls to the Aquarium down town. It was fun! Saige liked to run around and see the fish. If we tried to hold her she'd try and throw a fit. It was funny! :) Reese was a little scared at first until we showed her that the fish, snakes etc were in glass cages and couldn't get it. She then goes up to the big snake cage and puts her face near it and says "its ok mommy" but I didn't like that. I kept picturing this huge snake breaking free and getting my baby. We rode all the rides and the grabbed lunch. By the end of the dinner Saige was throwing things on the floor and screaming. We needed a nap!! We stopped by the water thing and had fun until Reese slipped and bumped her head. We took that as a sign to leave:) But it was a fun day! Aaron can't believe I go to these places with friends alone. He said he could never do it. haaha
