Just because I thought it was cute!

I checked on Rylee yesterday during her nap and found her asleep, totally covered except for her little feet sticking out and she had them crossed. It looked so sweet so I had to take a picture and just thought it turned out cute!

Just Stuff...






As most of you know, it snowed on Monday. So these pictures are for our out of town family! It was a lot of fun to watch, we had massive flakes falling from the sky. We told Emily it looked like we might get enough for her to play in a little but it melted fairly fast after it stopped, but it was pretty white in our neighborhood for a while. She was a little disappointed. I know the mushroom is a funny picture but it looked nice with it's little white covering!
Ally is super into hats right now. She puts her coat on in the morning and isn't satisified until she has her hood on! The other night she asked to put the pink baseball hat on and wore it all night, it was so cute.
Excuse me while I gush for a minute but Ally is so stinkin cute right now. She is so fun. What happened to terrible 2's? I haven't experienced them with her yet. The most she does is get into things, mostly my makeup, lotion and her love affair with toothpaste! But other than that she is so cute. I just love when she talks and sings. She STILL loves "Holy Is The Lord" That is all I get to listen to. But hey, it's an awesome worship song for an awesome God so I can't complain! If I get the itch to move to the next song I just tell her, "mommy is going to listen to this song now" and she says, "Kay" and we're happy! If you want to have a fun day, borrow Ally, she won't disappoint!
She's also potty training right now. Someone please pinch me, because I must be dreaming. This has been so easy so far. In a couple of days she's done so so well. Asking to go, mostly staying dry, dry after her nap yesterday and today after an hour in the gym playing she had waited until I came back and asked to go. After Emily who could have cared less, she's so easy. I'm loving it, (if you could love to potty train, which I think is impossible. Most of you know how I feel about this task ).
That's all for now! Hope you enjoy the few pictures! We'll have some new ones of our big girl Rylee when she turns 6 months in a couple weeks.

Toes and Makeup











Here are a couple of cute pictures of Allyson and Rylee. Rylee loves her toes right now. She'll lay on her back forever eating her toes. It's the cheapest entertainment! I also included a couple of other cute photos of her lying on the floor.






Allyson, on the other hand, likes to play with my makeup and after her bath I was helping Emily and she came out of my room with mascara all over her forhead. She did actually manage to get some on her eyelashes. She didn't however, like the taking off process and since she had already had her bath, she got a baby wipe instead.

Happy Birthday Allyson!




Ally turned 2 yesterday. I would love to say I can't believe she's two already but to be honest it feels like she's been 2 for six months. So now we can officially say she's two.




We spent part of her birthday going to Sacramento with Mike, who had a business trip. I took the girls to the Arden Fair mall and let them ride the merry go round, which she loved, go to the disney store and toy store, and then shared an ice cream and a cookie. After Mike got done we went to IKEA, where we bought nothing but had fun. For those of you who know us that's a big thing not to buy a picture frame or something there!




On the way home Ally was a little cranky and the only thing that would make her happy was listening to the same song, Holy Is The Lord, for the last hour home. She finally fell asleep in Cottonwood and we were able to move on to the next song!
