Addie's Visit

Here are a few pictures from when Addie visited last weekend. We can't believe how big she has gotten. She is quite the little swimmer and ALWAYS happy. She is the cutest thing. Hopefully we'll have some more pics soon, that Mike took at the playground and pool.

New Addition to the Family

Well, we have ANOTHER new addition to our family! She is a 7 year old chocolate lab name Zasabelle. We adopted her from one of Scott's friends who was moving and wasn't able to take her. She is absolutely great with the kids and is very calm. Which is nice because it balances out the commotion that Diesel (our 3yrs old Chow & Lab Mix) tends to create.

Play Time

These are some pictures from the other morning when the girls were playing after breakfast. Allie brought down a doll from Lexie's room and thought that she would want to play with it while she was swinging. The things on the girls heads are soft buckets that we had from when Allie was a baby. We use to think it was funny to put them on Allie when she was little. Now we think we may have damaged her slightly because any time she sees a bucket it goes straight to her head. Its not to bad with the soft buckets because they are easy to get off. It is another story though when she tried to put a metal princess bucket on her head that was supposed to be holding her Easter presents. That one took about 15 minutes to get off. Of course it never fazed her because as soon as we brought out the soft buckets right on her head. Now she is passing on the tradition to her sister. Hopefully one day Allie will realize she can put other items in buckets other then her head.

More Pics at the Pool

Here are some more pictures of the kids at the pool. Scott was throwing Justin across the pool and he was loving it. Every now and then he'd wind up doing a belly flop. Allison was hanging on the side and walk her way around the pool. It was funny to watch her head bob up and down along the side. Lexie went in the pool for the first time. I don't think she really cared one way or another though because she was alseep within 5 minutes. When mom got tired of holding her she continued her nap in her car seat.

Gram's Pool

We spent the day a Great Gram's pool with Meme and Uncle David on Tuesday. The kids had a blast and seem to be getting more comfortable in the water. Uncle David was giving Justin rides around the pool in the bigger inner tube. Of course Justin loved it. Allie kept trying on all of the goggles.

Day at the Pool

We took our new camara to Lynn and Tim's to try it out. We got some really awesome pictures. These were some of our favorites. Scott took Justin and Allie down the slide. If you can't tell from Justin's face he didn't like it very much. Allie wasn't overly thrilled about it either, but they both had a blast swimming around all day. Kylie was doing a great job swimming without her belt on. Drew showed us his cannon ball, but wouldn't do his "sprinkler". It sounds really cool!

Welcome Home Lexie!

Here are a few cute pictures of the kids, after we brought Lexie home from the hospital. The kids absolutely love her. Justin and Allie both like helping feed and hold her. They actually fight over who is going to help.It becomes a mad dash to see who is going to get to the diapers and wipes first, with the occasional elbow along the way.
