Playdate at the zoo...

MAY 2009

The 1yr olds headed off to the zoo for a playdate. We had a blast! Every single one of you was awesome!!! It was such a great day :)

Me and you playing in the river...

You had a blast in this room. You were walking around to all the signs and talking like you were reading them. It kept me laughing for a while!

You saw the birdies and started chirping (I think you must have heard a kid do it because I didn't teach you that!). What's funnier is that when we got home you saw a bird fly by our house and you started the chirping noise and this funny hand/arm thing. You put your hands on your nipples, made this movement like you were pinching them, and chirped. I couldn't figure out what you were doing. I finally realized you must have seen a kid put their hands in their armpits imitating a bird flying. Somehow you interpreted that to what you were doing...haha! So, we've tried to teach you the right way since then. You still do it your way, but instead of the pinching nipple thing you just pat them ;) It gives everyone a good laugh!

The butterfly exhibit was going on, so we decided to take all of you in there.

Here you are watching the butterflies flutter around...

Riding on your puppy!

You absolutely LOVE Texas to death. When you wake up in the morning you say Te Te Te (You pronounce Tex's name, Te). You giggle when he's near. You love to give him hugs and kisses. He's the most tolerant of you which I love! I can't wait to see how you guys are together as you grow up ;)

Easter 2009

This Easter you actually knew what was going on ;) When you woke up that morning I had your gift sitting in your playroom waiting for you. Once you saw it you got so excited!!

I had to open it immediately because you wouldn't stop crying out of excitement...haha!
Mackenzie 044 by you.

Here's your dress that was VERY short lived. And when I say short I mean like 5 or 10 minutes short!!!! I wanted to cry.
Mackenzie 045 by you.

Here's what it looked like once you decided to destroy it :(

So I pulled the bottom off and let you wear it like that for a bit until it drove me bonkers.

Ben showed up to Nana's house and you greeted him with your version of a bear hug ;)
Mackenzie 053 by you.

Nana got you and Emmawyn the exact same gifts, so you wouldn't be jealous of the other ones gift. BUT...look at both of you. You're looking at the other ones gift to make sure it's not better! Crazy girlies!! (notice the outfit change...haha!)
Mackenzie 059 by you.

Nana also got you a stroller, so you would have one like Emmawyn. You don't like it when she has something you don't have. Oh boy...the teenage years are going to be fun ;)
Mackenzie 070 by you.

You girlies went outside to play a little later. You're so darn cute together!!

St. Patty's Day 2009

I'm going a little backwards here. I realized I forgot to post your St. Patty's pictures. And I think you looked oh so cute, so I couldn't pass them up ;)

Look at that smile! You melt my heart sometimes!!!

We went to the clubhouse with Nana & Papa to have lunch. And lets be honest...so they could show you off to their friends. I think it's their favorite thing to do!!! haha!

You were too busy playing with Papa to keep your eyes open for our picture. Silly girl!! Notice that Mommy and Nana showed up wearing the exact same hoodies! I know...DORKS!
Mackenzie 032 by you.

Papa walked you around, so you could show off your outfit to everyone...

After lunch, Papa took us for a ride in the golf cart. You loved it!

Carole Anne & Lucien's visit

Carole Anne & Lucien came to visit us in April! It was so great to see them. We went to Arboretum and had an Easter party ;)

It's always such a bummer to say good bye to them :(

On Thursday we went to the Arboretum with the other 1yr olds...
