Charlotte Rose

Charlotte is 17 months old now. She is full of energy.... she keeps on going and doesn't stop!!! Here are some of the things that she likes to do......
She likes to steal her sister's cups and gives her a sad face when she wants it back.
She loves to run! She has been walking since 9 months and she hasn't stopped since then!!! She is one busy girl!
She loves her babies. She really likes to bring them into our entryway and hide them from Emily. Her babies are the only things that she's sweet too!!! She loves to feed them and ride them around in her princess stroller!

I sure love this kid!!!!

Just some pictures of us for you MOM!!!!

Jesus Wants Me For A Sunbeam

Emily is a Sunbeam now!!! She's so excited to be in Primary! That's all she's talked about for the past couple of weeks! Ryan was on duty so I had to get the girls ready all by myself yesterday!! Emily was bursting at the seams ready to go to church when she took a sip of her drink and the lid popped off and went all over her dress, her shoes and the floors. She was devastated that she wasn't going to be able to wear her twirly dress to Sunbeams! She's a little sad in the pictures that I took of her. I don't think the change of dress made a difference to her sunbeam experience. After church I picked her up and she was grinning ear to ear! She got to help during sharing time and she loves her teachers! I can't believe she's old enough to be in Primary!

We've had a lot going on this month! We've decorated for Christmas, hung out with friends, had family come visit for a week, celebrated Christmas and the New Year! Christmas pictures will be coming soon.... While my in-laws were here we went to the duck pond in our area and the girls had a blast! We fed the ducks, both girls rode the scooter and had a leisurely walk.

The only picture we could get of the girls together!

My computer wouldn't let me rotate the picture!

LT JG

Ryan is officially a LT JG!!!! I am so proud of him!!!

Easter Egg Hunt

Today we went to our neighborhood easter egg hunt. Emily had a blast making a bunny mask, playing games, getting a badge from a police officer, eating pastries from panera bread and getting a balloon bunny. It was really hot but I enjoyed every minute of it. I'm glad we live in a neighborhood that has such cool community activities.

Spring in Texas

Spring comes very early in Texas! We have had beautiful weather the past couple of weeks. We have gone to the park, paint outside, play with bubbles, and ride around in the wagon almost every day. Last week I decided to put the girls in their new spring outfits and take some pictures. Charlotte of course didn't cooperate at all and Emily was her usual stubborn self. So we didn't get many pictures taken and they weren't that great. I love being able to get out of the house and enjoy time with my girls!!!

Riding with Daddy

So Ryan just decided that he needed to take Emily on her first motorcycle ride! Yes, I almost had a heart attack when he put her on it. She loves it!!! If Emily is with Daddy she will do anything! She is such a daredevil! At the end of the week we are making the 20+ hour trip to Breckenridge Colorado and Ryan can't wait to teach Emily how to ski! I will post pictures as soon as we get there!
