Why Do My Kids Look Like Their Daddy?

GREAT WOLF LODGE

Me, Abby Grace, Papa & Gigi went to Great Wolf Lodge on Wednesday. The night before we left, I asked Abby Grace if she was excited and if she knew what a waterpark had. She said, "Yeah, it's a hotel with a big swimming pool!" She had no idea about the slides, etc. We got there and she was quite overwhelmed. It took a little while to get her to do some things, but after every ride she wanted to go right back. I was so proud of her for not being scared. After about 3 1/2 hours at the waterpark, we went on to the magic treasure hunt, dinner, stuffing an animal, story time, arcade, etc. I left and let Abby Grace spend the night with mom and dad.

The next day mom told me a funny story. She took Abby Grace down to get some breakfast at a place that had every sweet you can imagine. (donuts, fudge, cookies, etc) Abby Grace picks an apple! :)

Abby Grace Graduates from Pre-K 2010

Abby Grace graduated from Pre-K at Legacy Learning Center on Thursday, May 20th at 4pm. Out of the fifty kiddos, she was the second tallest. She was so beautiful and graceful as she proudly walked down the aisle. She sang some songs and recited a poem. Justin & I are so very proud of our big girl!!

Abby Grace chose to go to Asahi's restaurant (Hibatchi) afterwards. Justin, Abby Grace, Ashlyn, Gigi and I had the whole place to ourselves. They treated Abby Grace so well and made it lots of fun. Gigi got Abby Grace notebooks and pencils with her name on it for when she starts school. Abby Grace wanted to sharpen her pencils all night!

Mamaw & Tom come for a visit

Mamaw & Tom told Abby Grace that they would be here for a one night visit on Sunday. Well, the doorbell rang Saturday around lunch and Abby Grace went to answer it. She doesn't think anything of the doorbell because we are always having packages delivered to our house. She opened the door and there was Mamaw & Tom with presents and pink roses. We had such a good weekend!

PS- Thanks Aunt Bran & Uncle Brad for Ashlyn's outfit!

Mother's Day Lunch with Papa & Gigi

Ashlyn 2 month check-up/Abby Grace school registration

Thursday morning I registered Abby Grace for school. She will attended EP Razor in Lantana. (a couple of blocks from Papa & Gigi's house) The first thing I realized when I got there was Abby Grace is about a foot taller than all the other kids. She will go in early August to meet the teacher and meet her new friends.

Ashlyn had her two month check-up this morning. She weighs 10lbs 8oz and is 22 1/2 inches long. She had to get three shots....ouch!!!

"Mommy, why do you wear makeup?"

As I was putting on my makeup this morning, Abby Grace asked me why I wear makeup. I told her that I wear it so daddy will think that I am pretty. She said, "Well, I don't think that he would think your shirt is pretty." After a few seconds she added, "....and you might want to change your pants!" She is such my little diva fashionista!!!

The other day when we were going to go to lunch with mom, Abby Grace asked said, "Are you wearing pajamas again to go out?" I guess after having Ashlyn, I have spent too many days in sweats and t-shirts. :) That is one of the beauties of living here versus WM...no one knows me! Unfortunately, I don't have a closet full of beautiful clothes to choose from like Abby Grace has. Thanks to her Mamaw, she could wear a different outfit everyday!
