Monster Slide!

Kaylee going down the huge slide at Pa's Pumpkin Patch!

Let the Halloween fun begin!

For those who do not know, I am a Halloween Junkie!! The pumpkin patch opened here on Friday October2nd and we were there!! I have gotten Kaylee to love Halloween as much as I do so she was so excited to go and play. She got the sit on the pumpkins, ride the ponies, go on the carousel, ride the flying elephants, chase the lambs around the peting zoo (poor lambs), go on Pa's train, and go down the enormouse slide. SHe is so brave when it comes to fun rides especially slides that she was so determined to go down this huge inflatable slide that even I wouldn't dare go down but she did it and had a blast!!

Our girls today

Our girls are getting so big. Macie is now 4 months old and Kaylee is 2 1/2. Time is going by so fast and we are trying our hardet to take in every moment with our babies. Kaylee has turned into such a ham and keeps us laughing all the time. She is such a sweet, nice girl that my heart melts with any look of hurt on her little face. She has a best friend, Jenna who lives next door an is 6 months younger so they play everyday outfront together and Kaylee loves to stand on her bed and yell out her side bedroom window, "Jenna where are you?!" It is definatly a sign of days to come with those two.

Macie is getting so big and is the happiest little girl I have ever seen. She wakes up with a huge smile every morning and all you have to do is look at her and she is smiling or laughing. We are so entertained by her on a daily basis. Her personality is coming out so much and I can tell she is going to be really fun and she and Kaylee are going to have a blast together. Kaylee is very anxious for that day to come.

Friends

How lucky am I that I get to stay home with my girls while they grow up and have fun play dates with friends! These are the kids of friends that I was lucky enough to know through working at the Fish Tale all those years. We all ended uphaving kids right around the same time as one another and that brought us back into eachothers lives. The kids have so much fun playing together and we have a blast having everyone over for swim days!! Poor Maddy has been the only boy so far but now there is Leighton who is a couple weeks older than Macie so he is finally not alone! We will work on getting you another boy to play with Maddy!! ;) Kaylee, Macie, and I say thank you daddy for working so hard so that we can be together and have so much fun!! :)

A Little Birdie Told Me

Ok....here goes nothing! I have started my own shop on Etsy.com! The direct address to my shop is www.weeg002.etsy.com. I am still getting it together and only have this one mobile listed thus far. I am making another one tonight, hopefully, and will have it posted. I am waiting for some more shapes to get to me in the mail so that I can make more that are not butterflies and some that are boyish. I can make them though in any color scheme so if you know someone who is expecting or a little girl who would love one let me know or check out my Etsy shop! Kaylee wants me to make her one for her room so they aren't just for babies! I am having fun making these and I hope that someone out there likes them too, enough to buy one ;)! Wish me luck!! Now I just need a camera to take better pic's of my mobiles, better yet I will have Shawnna do it :)

Kaylee's survival test!!

Kaylee has been taking swim lessons at Water Safe swim school in Seal Beach since July of last year. She pretty much cried for the first 6 months of it and once the tears dried she caught on to swimming like a pro. She has done such a great job in the last year and because of all of her hard work she arrived at the time to take her survival test. This test is where her instructor, Heather, throws her in the pool with her clothes on. The goal is for Kaylee to bring her head up out of the water, float on her back, and swim the the wall of the pool where she can get out. This is done so that if she ever falls in a pool or any body of water she has the tools to float on her back to save herself. Kaylee did an exceptional job and passed her test within seconds.....literally. She did such a great job that she even asked to do it again! JC and I spent the night before with worried tummies for no reason! :)

OC Fair 09

This was Kaylee's first year at the fair. She wanted to pet every animal they had there. It took a while for her to warm up to getting on a ride and playing any of the games there but once we got her going she was all about it! She and I went on a boat ride which I wouldn't have gone on at her age and she had a blast swing back and forth and spinning. Her absolute favorite part of the fair was riding Lolly! She loves horses and was so happy and a little cocky when they put her on LOL! I told her that we will have to go to cousin Joan's and she will put her on a horse to ride. Her repsonse was "now mommy...pleeease!" I am so glad that she had a great time and mom, dad, and May May did as well. The summer is never complete until going to the fair, playing games, the rides, and of course the carnies!!! ;)
