PICTURES

So I was holding Mckinley and Takoma came up to us and wanted to hold her! I couldn't resist I had to take a pic of this of course we needed daddy's help but it was so cute to see Takoma hold her baby sister. Takoma just loves her today she gave her like ten kisses on the head and cheeks way cute. I can't believe Mckinley will be 3 months on the 14th and Takoma will be 20 months on the 29th. My babies are going to fast!!!!
sleepy girl


This is the first time I let Takoma have ketchup with her tots and once she tried it she only wanted to eat the ketchup.Yuck!








I usually have Takoma wearing clothes but for some reason I just didn't want to put any on her. I guess I was just having a lazy moment. Anyways this is her chair and this is how she sits in it when she watches a movie.




Mckinley is 2 1/2 months






I love her leggings!!!
















It Cameron's Birthday he turned 25!!! Happy Birthday babe I love you so much. I'm so blessed to have you as my husband and being the father of our girls.










Cameron wanted to try this mexican cake that they have a cafe rio I can't remember what it's called but I guess they fill this cake up with some sort of cream inside so the batter is really really moist. I thought it was a little to moist but Cameron liked it and that's what matters.










I just love watching her sleep I could watch her all day if I could.











Mckinley is going bald on top!!! How sad.












We just bought this sectional and it's super staticy













Takoma loved riding the pony I think that was my favorite part out of the whole circus experience. We left a little after the half time or whatever you call it. Takoma didn't like when the motorcycles came out and rode in that ball thing.

UPDATE

Well it's time for an update! You become very busy when you have 2 kids. I have been wanting to post about our family and put tonz of pics up everyday but something gets in the way so I decided that Sundays will be my blog day! Cameron will be home all day so I will be able to have time away from my two little sweet angels. I know today is Friday but my girls are both asleep which doesn't happen very often.
Cameron, my wonderful and amazing husband is loving his job @ flint. He is a safety manager which is perfect because he is getting his degree in emergency management. He has been working for them since November. He is GRADUATING IN APRIL, YES NEXT MONTH!!!!!! I'm so happy and so proud of him. He was thinking about graduating in the summer but he just wanted to get the whole school thing over with. So he is taking 17 credits this semester. I can't wait for him to be done with school then we can spend more time together as a family. I'm so proud of him and I love him very much. He is the perfect husband for me and my best friend and the perfect daddy for our girls! Thank you so much sweet heart for working so hard I love you very much!
Me: So this afternoon I had to go to urgent care because I was in the process of getting mastitis. Yuck I had that two weeks after I had Mckinley and it was not fun but I'm glad I recognized it before it got worse.LOL so that was the highlight of my afternoon. I'm trying to be the best mother I can be for my girls and the best wife for my husband. My goal for last year and this year is being a better cook. I did alright last year but this year I want to do really well and get out of my comfort zone. So far I've been doing good but I'll keep you posted on that. I'm going to see if I can start school in the summer and try do get my associate in a couple of years. I do about 95% of it on line so I'm pretty excited about that. We moved into a house in the middle of Jan. and we are loving it! We love how much more room we have and we love having a garage. Since it's a bigger place I have a hard time keeping up with my chores. Sometimes I feel like all i do is clean and then Takoma gets it all messy again but then she gives me this look and my heart just melts. I'm going to be working at the pool again this summer teaching the mommy and me class and I'm super excited for it. Takoma just loves the water we actually went to the pool on Thursday they have a toddler time from 10am-11:30am and they have that big water toy on and the lazy river. Takoma loved it she was going down the slides and dunking herself, blowing bubbles, and kicking her legs. All of you who have little kids should come it's alot of fun and it's never crowded. There was only ten people when we went and half of them left after 40 min.
Takoma: What a fun girl she has the funniest personality she knows how to make us laugh. But when she's mad you better watch out because she throws the biggest fits in the world. I've been putting her on time out alot lately. I don't know what her deal is but all of a sudden she will just start screaming and throw herself on the floor and start kicking the ground. I have to tell her if she doesn't stop then she will have to go on timeout. If anyone has any suggestions please let me know. But beside that she is a great blessing in our family. She is being a wonderful sister and loves to tickle Mckinley. When Mckinley starts crying Takoma will say "uh oh baaby" and sometimes when Mckinley is to noisy Takoma will say shhhhhh to her and put her finger to her mouth. She has this doll that we bought her when Mckinley was born and she never really touched it till about a couple of weeks ago. She carries this doll everywhere she goes. she likes to feed it and she likes to burp her too. It's really cute to watch. I love her so much and I'm so grateful to have her in my life.
Mckinley: well Mckinly will be 3 months old on the 14th. It's gone by super fast but I'm kind of happy about that. Mckinley was kind of hard at the beginning. She always wanted to be held and she was always colicky but since Feb. she's been really good. She eats every four hours and she goes to bed around 8:30 or 9 and then she'll wake up about 5:30 or 6. I'm loving it! She loves to talk to you and smiles all the time. she'll watch Takoma play and if I need to do something and I can't hold Mckinley sometimes I'll put her on the couch and turn on Dora the Explorer and mute it but she'll just watch the bright colors and sometimes she talks to the TV too or I'll turn the fan on and she'll watch that. She has the sweetest little spirit and I just love watching her grow. Sometimes I'll sit and just stare at her for ever and not want to do anything else. I love her so much!
I'm so grateful for my family and so grateful for there health. I don't know how I became so lucky but I'm super grateful. Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend! I'll post pics up this Sunday!!!
