Cousins

I have been slacking on doing my blog now that I am on Facebook. I need to work on it. We got the girls pics done last week with their new cousin Adele. This is my favorite, because they are crying. I love crying pictures.

Nat really hates getting her picture taken.

My little angel face!!

My beautiful little girl.

Catching Up and Camp Snoopy!!!

I just got a new camera for Mother's Day (thanks John), because my old camera wouldn't let me download pictures to the computer. That is why it has taken me so long to update my blog. We have been really busy. The kids are getting so big. Natalee is now almost 14 mos. She is walking and talking. She can say so many words, she amazes me everyday. Maycee is getting so smart. She has finished the alphabet, and we are now working on numbers. She is getting ready to go to preschool in the fall.

My mom, sister, and I decided to take the kids to Knott's Berry Farm a couple weeks ago. I was so impressed with Camp Snoopy for the little ones. We had a blast. Here is Natalee meeting Snoopy. Maycee was petrified of him.
The skateboard ride was so fun. Maycee did so well on this ride.

Natalee and Awmee riding on the cars. A lot of the rides Natalee could ride on, so it made it even better there!!

Maycee got a flower painted on her face. Maycee's favorite color is yellow. It was neat that the lady made her flower yellow for her. Maycee loved it!!!

Nat passed out after a long day of fun!!!!!!

We went camping at Yucaipa Regional. It was a crazy time. I thought I would try to play with my camera, and try the different color settings. I liked this one of Mace.
Me and my girls!!!

Natalee's First Birthday Picture

We went today to get Natalee's first birthday pictures taken. She hates getting her picture taken at a studio. She screamed and cried the whole time, so this is the only picture we got. She still looks super cute though!

Natalee is ONE!

Natalee has turned one!! This has been the best year of my life. Having two girls has really made my life a lot more interesting and busy. Natalee is the sweetest little girl. She loves to give hugs and kisses, and is a big cuddler. I really thought that she was going to be my quiet baby, but she has turned out to be the other. She is loud, and has the same personality as her dad. She is a crack up. Natalee loves food, and I don't understand why she is not huge. If she sees you eating something, she cries until you give her some. She loves sweets, and has never turned down a meal. I just took her to the dr. and they weighed her in at 17lbs 1oz, which is only the 5th percentile. She weighs less then Maycee at a year. It must be their daddy's metabolism.

She still isn't walking all the time. She is totally able to, but I think doesn't have the confidence to do it. Hopefully in the next couple weeks she will be. She is talking a lot. She says mom, hi, eye, Lailah, hair, baby, and yeah. Which is a lot more than Maycee did at her age. She is the most beautiful and wonderful little girl. The next year should be exciting!!

Natalee's theme to her birthday was ladybugs. My mom and I made these cupcakes.

Natalee did so well her whole birthday. This was her only birthday melt down. This picture shows what a baby she still is, even though she is one. I don't except that she is a toddler yet.

Maycee has quite the imagination now. She has told me she has kids named Tiki, Nooni, and Nina. She asked me to take this video of her kids. Tell me if you see them!! Haha

Here is a video of Natalee saying our dog's name Lailah. I posted it on my facebook, so sorry if this is the second time you saw it. I am just so proud of her, and can't believe how big she has gotten.
