Parks & Recreation

Having fun in the backyard...I love these beautiful late summer/early fall days!





Slide racing...it's fun!  We love Troutville Park...

Fearful mommy vs. Hailey's "mom, I can do it all myself!"  My girl's growing up too fast!

Hailey's 1st see-saw experience...a little timid, but had fun!

the slide is always the favorite!


...and Lindsey loves to "wing"...aka swing!






Hailey excited to start her fall dance classes!

Lindsey is too!




Decided to change my hair style...it was time, and I think every mom goes through this change.  Hailey wanted to take a picture with my new hair and her hair up in one of her new "dance" hair accessories.  I'm so proud of Hailey...she's been the biggest helper to me and such a wonderful big sister to Lindsey! 

Just for daddy...in her hand-me-down Cowboys/Romo jersey.  Lindsey is 15months now and is saying so many words it's unbelievable!  She's like a little sponge.  She loves to play with her sister and is litterally running instead of walking...just makes wide turns.  I love when you say, "I love you!" and she response with, "too."  So sweet!  Her favorite game is "Peek-a boo...see you!" so she calls it and loves to play in Hailey's toy kitchen.  I love to watch her at Hailey's dance lessons too...she trys to mimick everything Hailey does & is learning her Christmas dance recital routine just as fast as Hailey, lol!  Goodness, there's so much to remember...15months, she's around 27 lbs...still not big enough for a forward carseat.  She's a wonderful eater...her favorite food is broccoli and she'll eat beets & brussel sprouts, crazy I know, but wonderful!

Finalized! ~ Hailey's Ballerina Bedroom Redo

I am totally singing the  HALLELUJAH CHORUS !  After months of contemplating Hailey's bedroom redo and realizing after I started that this was harder than expected with tons of DIY projects...it's DONE!!   Well, at least for now.  Possible that I will continue with cosmetic procedures later, but for now...here it is... Just a walk down memory lane... even though it's totally embarrassing with overflow of clutter in which I strongly dislike... Oh my...look at the bedskirt, lol!  Felt a tad bit sorry for Lindsey who thought she belonged with her favorite stuffed animals in the hammock.... But anyway, after painting her walls pink and hand painting sillhouettes of ballerinas...it was on!  I have been so greatful that God placed the perfect people in my path to finish Hailey's room with one of the Dance mom's, Jenna Pratt who exchanged a ballerina comforter set plus pillows and curtains for a video baby monitor...absolutely perfect! ...

Down memory lane - Winter 2013

If there's one thing I love most, it's snow days!! Down time with fun in the snow and hot chocolate, cuddles and watching some of our favorites like Toot & Puddle, Franklin, Little Bear, The Berenstain Bears, Olivia, The Backyardigans, Sofia the First...or any Christmas movie, especially the Polar Express!  We love snow days!!                                   Nothing better than waking up to snow and homemade fun. The girls decided to dress up our snowlady and chose Snow White after looking through their dress-up clothes...neither of them wanted snow white to melt....   After thawing out and a warm bath, Lindsey always enjoyed playing with her playhouse and would always holler for me to come find her and let me know she was in her house. She loved how she could fit inside and imagination play.... . Lindsey started getting a cold but continued to smile....I mean, who doesn't love that baby...
