Pool Days...II

I had to post this picture because it captures Kaylee exactly in the pool. Kaylee is now all about jumping in over and over again since she has learned to jump out. Yes she has known how to jump but before Kaylee thought jumping in the pool was to jump straight up in the air and then come straight down and hit her bottom on the edge of the pool......not making for much fun. She has it down pat now and this is what a dy in the pool with Kaylee consists of.

Today her little friends Alex and Reagan came over and they swam for a good hour and a half. After swimming they ate their lunch on the patio and then went into the airconditioning where they ran around the house screaming and having a great time. I LOVE to watch her play and have so much fun with her friends!!

Pool Days

This past weekend was Grand Prix weekend here in Long Beach. No I did not go :( JC went on Sunday with John and so we had Ali, Paula, Mimi, the kids, Shawn and girls, and Ang over for a day in the pool. Shawnna came over and was taking pictures of the kids swimming to practice her photography. These pictures of Kaylee are some of those.

This past weekend the weather was unbelievable here in LB reaching 95 yesterday and 100 today (too hot!). JC, Kaylee, and I had a great weekend hanging out in the pool, gardening, and going out to dinner. They were the days that reminded me of when I was a kid. Dad planting some plants in the back yard while jumping in and out of the pool, me being in the pool all day long, and then all of us either BBQ-ing or heading out for a nice dinner. I was so in my comfot zone for the weekend. ;)

Easter 09

Yesterday was a great day. Not only could we have asked for better weather for an easter egg hunt but we were able to celebrate easter with most of our family. We went to John and Paula's house and shared easter morning with Mom, Chad, Ang, Ali, Bill, Chase, Brayden, Reese, John,Paula, and ofcourse JC, Kaylee, and I. Kaylee wore her beautiful easter dress but I was disapointed when her adorable crochet shoes didn't fit her. That is what I get for buying a toddler shoes a few months before hand. Kaylee woke up Easter morning to a basket in her room left by the easter Bunny. He gave her a play tea set, books, and jelly beans. She was very excited to see the tea set that she has been wanting and immediatly started to poor JC and I tea in bed. We went to John and Paula's later in the morning and once everyone got there the kids easter egg hunt began. Kaylee was doing well, maybe that was because her daddy was right behind her the whole time snatching eggs from little boys hands and putting them in Kaylee's basket, LOL! The kids all got to dump out their baskets and discover the awesome things waiting for them inside. We ended the day with a plantingof a tree with Papa, a session of bubble blowing with the Dad's on the golf course, and Kaylee's favorite thing of all giving Annie (John & Paula's lab) a treat and letting her give kisses. It was a great day. It would have been even greater if we had all of our family with us in Long Beach still but we can't have everything...right? Miss Dad being down the street terribly.

Pregnancy Pictures 09

Shawnna came over Saturday morning and we did my pregnancy pictures. I figured since I did them with Kaylee I would highly regret it if I did not do them with Macie. I have known that Shawnna keeps getting better and better with her photography skills but I think that she did a really great job and in fact I like these pictures so much more than the ones that I did pregnant with Kaylee! So some might think that these are a little HELLO but I'm not posting the ones that she talked me into doing, laying on a bed.....ummm yeah. She got me to do it I am surprised but those are for my eyes only. LOL! We managed to get Kaylee in a few of them inbetween her running around in circles. Here are a few that I really liked and there might be more to come.

Pink Skirt

Nonna bought Kaylee this pink skirt for her birthday. Kaylee loves it and askes to wear it everyday. If she could sit in her carseat with it I don't think I could ever get it off of her. She has turned out to be my girly girl loving her pretty skirts, dressup shoes, sunglasses, barbies, and baby dolls. She does however LOVE her converse but of course those are pink as well ;)

March 2009

March we celebrated Kaylee Chase's 2nd birthday! She is a big girl now and in her big girl bed. She is anxiously awaitng Macie's arrival as are we all. Kaylee is doing great in her swim classes and is advancing with every lesson. She is going to be a little fish this summer in the pool.

School is going great for me and with all of my breaks that I have taken troughout the year I will FINALLY be done with my BS in psychology the first of November! YAY!

JC is busy at work and is doing great as well. We are on countdown and looking at 8 more weeks until we get to meet our newest baby girl, Macie James!
