Puter

So lately Addy loves the computer more than anything. She loves to find and play new games from barbie, tinkerbell, sesame street, and lately nick jr. games she loves it all. I found that she will be good for me for an entire week just to get a few hours of computer time. And like wise if she miss behaves she gets grounded from it. It has been a great source of motivation in our house. Maybe I have been using the computer as a barter tool a little too much because Addy caught on and decided to do a little bartering herself. When she happened to be grounded from the computer due to a massive fit she realized what I have been wanting more than anything, came into my room around 7 am and whispered really close to my face, "mommy I will let you sleep if you let me play puter."

Photos

As you can see from my pictures below I love my new camera. Caleb got it for me right as Lyla was born and to be honest I don't know how I lived without it before. Pictures turn out so much better and are so much more fun to take. I guess it also helps to have a new little model to pose for me too. Lately I can't get Addy to take any pictures unless it is with Lyla. But, babies I just can't get enough of. Hope you enjoy our last two months of photo shoots.

Me: What?

Addy: You know I was just eating them.

Happy Easter

Just hopping your Easter weekend is as good as ours!

Lyla Sue Jones

Lyla was born yesterday at 3:14 pm, she weighed 6 lbs 11 oz and was 18.5 inches long. Both Diana and Lyla are doing great. So far Addy has been in love with her little sister and loves holding her and kissing her. Here are a few pictures.

Our Busy Week

It was Addy's Birthday last week and we celebrated pretty much all week long. We got her a trampoline for her present. She couldn't be happier. She will jump outside until her face is bright red come in out of breath and say mom I need a drink and go back out.

She got pretty spoiled and loved every minute of it. We took her to Disney on ice. She got to sit by Tayla and they were both in heaven.

Sue came to visit...see I told you she got spoiled.

She was so excited to have a Tinkerbell birthday so I got busy making a Tinkerbell cake.

Surprisingly, the Tinkerbell cake was much easier than the Barbie cake from last year.
Last but definitely not least, we found out Tinkerbell is going to have a baby sister. I am so excited they will be such good friends. Whenever Addy was asked she told everyone it was a girl from day one. She came to a quick doctor visit with me about a month ago and said, mommy I forgot to tell the doctor I want a girl.--she thought you could put in an order like at a restaurant. So when I came home and said Addy guess what the doctor said. She yelled "a girl." Like "of course mom that is what I have been trying to tell you." Here is her cute feet and cute face.

Catching Up

HALLOWEEN SNEAK PEEK:

The library puts on a Halloween parade for the little ones. I am so excited this weekend for my little snow white.

CAMPING: We went camping with just our family to double lakes last week and had a blast. We were lucky and got the last spot. Our neighbors next to us were drunk and a little loud. Addy was convinced they were pirates and always had her eye out for peter pan and tink.

I know you are jealous and wish you could have ridden with us on the Jones family circus bikeAddy became our photographer. It's a little crooked but both of our heads are in the picture. She loved taking pictures of everything up there, her chair, the fire, the pile of wood.

Wouldn't be camping with out gooey marshmallows that fill your whole mouth

NIKI'S VISIT:

Caleb's sister came to see us and we had so much fun.

We made carmel apples with green apples and dipped them in white chocolate and sprinkled them with cinnamon sugar just like the ones from the Rocky Mountain Candy Factory. SO YUMMY.

We went to Sea world. Here we are waiting for shamu to come out. Addy is to excited to see shamu to look at the camera. Example #1

Example #2 : Still managing to keep the corner of her eye mainly on the pool.

Example #3

Addy loved these guys and followed them around for about an hour while Niki and Caleb went on the fun rides.
