Our day so far...

Here is a pic of Emma with all of her missing teeth.
Soph let Emma put some make up on and do her hair.
From the kitchen, I overheard her say, "I look gorgeous!"
Poor Lily fell asleep in her highchair while we were getting ready to go.
Feathers & Tinsel!
The girls got to go see Khari today and have feathers and tinsel crimped into their hair. They have been waiting a month to do this!

Teeth!

We have a lot going on with teeth in this household. Emma pulled out her second top tooth yesterday so she is currently missing 4 teeth. We joke with her that she needs to get the new ones in in time for corn on the cob! Lily has gotten her first two bottom teeth over the last week or two. She looks pretty darn cute. I'll post photos later.

I heart Walmart!

Yes, I'll admit it. I love Walmart! We always find the great stuff there and it's so inexpensive. Before I put groceries and goods away today, I thought I'd snap a pic of our favorite finds from today's trip.Miracle Grow single packs, Resolve pet stain remover (works well on baby spit up, too), Downy fabric softener in lilac, limited edition shave gel, glitter hair barrettes, "Wizards" Go-Gurts, pop-tarts case for Soph, pink zebra print wristlet for me (handy for cell phone for quick trips into a store), Fels-Naptha (97cents) and some extra girly glitter shoes. Also, not pictured was bubble bath in bottles shaped like Ariel and Cinderella. Huge find for the girls. They became my bargaining chips to get through the store with them. I have to say it worked. They were good during the trip.
This was the final test for Emma's class. She said that she knew she could do it because she had jumped from higher than that at tumbling class. Way to go, Emma!
Soph's class was a little shorter. She was watching Emma jump in while warming up in her cover up and towel. She did a great job in her first swim class. Proud of you, Soph!
Crying a bit as she walked to the diving board. Poor thing.
If you look closely, you can see that Emma is crying a little bit. She was just over being cold! I can't say I blame her. I walked over and told her she was almost done and she could get in a hot bath as soon as she got home. She bucked up, jumped off the diving board and finished her class. Good girl!

BRRRR!!!

The girls had a make up swim lesson today and it was a tad chilly to say the least! You couldn't have paid me to get in.Between shivering and teeth chattering, Soph did have some fun.
Can you tell she is shivering?

Practicing with kick boards.
Hi, Soph!

beach pics

Here are some photos we finally took at the beach with my new camera. Thank goodness for digital. We took a ton! Funny thing is that it's usually the first one that's the best.

Really?!

There was a shark attack down the road yesterday in Orange Beach, AL. A guy fell off his jet ski and was bitten by a bull shark in the foot. He didn't bleed to death because he got back on his jet ski and someone on shore applied a tourniquet. Looks like we WILL NOT be swimming the rest of the week!

Happy Fathers Day!

Here is a belated Fathers Day photo of Tim with his favorite little ladies. This was taken last night while we were waiting to be seated for dinner. We raised our glasses and toasted "The Best Daddy Ever." We love you! You truly are the BEST!
Poor Lil just couldn't fight the sleep anymore. The sound of the waves and walking around just did her in.
"Daddy, you look that way and I'll look this way."

Our condo is on the left on the corner. The third balcony from the garage levels.

Soph is not a fan. She had a look of utter disgust when I opened the box.
Emma was curious but not brave enough to try one.
Lil and her entertainer.
