San Antonio Trip

Birthday Kiss

Going to Dance

I asked Amelia if she wanted to smile or frown for the picture and she said frown.

Giant Veggie

We bought this at the mini Wal-Mart, reminds me of the veggies in El Salvador.

Project Becky

So when I first moved into the house I knew the bathroom needed a makeover but it was going to be a lot to do at once. One day I looked up and the wallpaper was falling off the wall so I ripped it off. Matt felt that made it look worst, which it sort of did. I did it to motivate us to remodel I asked him if he'd be okay with me beginning the remodel of the bathroom and he said it was fine. On August 4th I began and here is what it looked like.

Pa Pa Stokes

Here is a picture of Amelia and her Pa Pa Stokes.  She just loves him! Very sweet connection.

Cadillac Ranch

I took Rosemary to the Cadillac Ranch while visiting Amarillo. We didn't get to do as much as I would have liked but had many belly laughs!! Gosh she's funny or maybe the things she does that crack me up?

Jackson & Amelia

Here they are at Hurricane Harbor.

Helper

Amelia enjoys helping so I usually give her a chore. Here she is doing the dishes while I cook. She actually did a pretty good job.

Swimming

Lots of swimming this 4th of July week!

Happy 4th of July

Mejico!

I took my mom to the Brazil vs. Mexico soccer game at the Cowboy stadium and of course the majority of the people were rooting for Mexico......so there were a bunch of sombreros there.....this one was my favorite though! hehe!

After Church Picture

Amelia 2 years and 7 months old today!

After church I've been taking a picture of Amelia near a tree so now she's ready to take pics.  She asks me if we are going to take pictures.  She's such a silly girl (2nd picture)......we are at the nursery buying shrubs, we tell her that it's a jungle.....so we pretend we're in the jungle.

At the Playground Today

Recital Preview

Here is Amelia with some of her classmates from dance class.  It was picture day yesterday so we had to have them in their recital costumes.  We weren't in the room to take pictures so I have NO CLUE what these pictures will end up looking like.

My Belly Casting

The casting is currently being displayed at the Fort Worth Arts Center.

Happy Easter

At the playground

We have become "regulars" at all the local fast food playgrounds during the winter. Our favorite Chick Fil A, with healthy food options, Grilled chicken, fruit and juice I'm planning on going to the park more now that the weather is nicer Also, I figured out how to blog via email so I hope to update more often!

Pintando

Here we are with our final painting. I really like this picture of the Stockyards.

Amelia at the Library

3D Movie

Bonnie and I took Madison and Amelia to the movies to see Beauty and the Beast in 3D.  It was Amelia's first time at the movies and on top of that it was 3D.  She pretty much kept her glasses on throughout the show but towards the 2nd 1/2 she wanted them off.  Both girls did great! No crying or wanting to leave in the middles.  Pretty impressive with 2 two year olds! :D
