Football Season Begins

Our poor girls are so confused! Are they Bears Fans?


Or Steelers Fans?

Princess Party

A couple of weekends ago, Mikaiya went to her friend Taverly's fourth birthday party. Braenna got to go too! It was a princess themed party and all of the girls were told to where their "most royal attire". Let's just say that is right up Mikaiya's alley and she had a lot of fun picking out her princess outfit. Here she is all dressed up for the party:




Here is Braenna (and Daddy!) at the princess party:

Here are all the girls at the party:

Daddy's Birthday

We had a fun day on Jeff's birthday. He got to open presents in the morning, we went out to lunch and then Mikaiya and I made him cupcakes to celebrate. Here are some birthday pictures...





Mikaiya's New Trick

I am once again playing catch up! Here's a video I've been wanting to share from the weekend of Jeff's birthday.

This is Mikaiya's new trick, we are so proud!:

Braenna 1 Year Photos

I'm a little late with these, but here are Braenna's 1 year photos and some family shots that we had done. The ones in the beginning are the ones that the photographer modified, the rest are all the proofs. Enjoy!

August 2009

Yet another month has passed. It's hard to believe how fast time goes these days. Our little angels are getting bigger and bigger by the day.

Braenna is getting cuter and cuter! She is still obsessed with the stairs and is getting very quick at climbing up them. She hasn't figured out the down thing yet...mostly because we haven't let her try. She is getting to have quite a few little personality traits. For instance, when she is done with her food, she tips her plate over (if she hasn't already done it earlier in the meal) and proceeds to "sweep" all the food off her tray. You'd think we'd catch on, but she is QUICK! She has also become our dancing queen. She loves music and as soon as she hears it she starts clapping and dancing. It's so fun to watch her come up with her own little moves. She is getting to be pretty quick on her feet these days too and loves when Mikaiya and daddy chase her around the house. She also moved up a class at daycare this month. She has entered the world of "Young Toddlers". She likes it...I'm still adjusting : )

Mikaiya is doing well also. No big changes for her this month. She's been loving her swim lessons with Amy (our neighbor across the street) and is getting really good at going under. She is still really enjoying preschool and she's really getting into her letters. She can now recognize a lot more than just the ones in her name. Yay Mikaiya! On to reading next month...haha! I know it will be before we know it!!

Here are the pictures from this month...

A trip to the park...

We took the girls to the park last weekend. It was finally"cool" enough here that we could go...less than 100...woohoo!! They really had a great time though. Here's some pics I thought I'd share:
