Savannah's new tricks

She will fold her arms for prayers and can do a flip all by herself. She is such a big girl.

Girls night out!

For girls night out we went to Lenny's sub shop for dinner. We didn't leave from there until they were sweeping and pretty much kicked us out. Then we went to Joleen's house for some girl talk, treats and strawberry daiquiri's.

Then Catherine decided to get crazy and chug a red bull for the first time.

At 11:45PM we drove to the movies. Valorie and Catherine in the car.
While we were driving there it started pouring, so we had to run into the theatre before we got soaked. The cool movie gang, minus Celest who is taking the picture.

We saw Baby Mama! It was really funny. We all enjoyed it and stayed awake from all the laughing.

Play date with Morgan

The dad's went to play golf while the girls played at Morgan's house. Look they match how cute.
Saige and Morgan are the best of friends.

and get in trouble together. This is Saige and Morgan in the pantry throwing oatmeal all over the floor. When they are being quiet we go to check on them and usually find them in some kind of mischief.

Dinner Time

Savannah Loves to eat dinner. Actually she loves to eat anything at any time. Tonight she really loved her dinner.
Want some?
Saige on the other hand would rather sleep than eat. This is what happens when she doesn't get a nap. I got Savannah down from the table and got her dressed for bed. Then went to get Saige and she was passed out.

The weather

Friday cold and raining, but we had a blast playing in it.

She loved running around in the rain.
Saturday it was a breezy 76 degrees and we went to the park. Sorry no pictures.

Sunday it was sunny and 79 degrees, so we went on a walk around the complex after church.

Monday it was a nice sunny 80 degrees, so we hung out by the pool.

Tuesday after we got home from the gym we played outside with the Polly pocket pool and water table. It was a nice sunny 80 degrees. Savannah getting ready to take a dip.
Saige got the pool party for staying dry for 2 weeks.
Then it started to rain and the temperature droped to 67 degrees. It amazes how fast the weather changes here. I don't even think rain was in the for cast. Here is a video of the rain.

Workout Time

We'll I have no more excuses for not working out. I kept saying I would start when I stopped breast feeding (that was in Dec.) or started gaining weight (5 pounds since we moved), so it is time to hit the gym. A couple of weeks ago I went to a stroller strides class with Jamie and it kicked my trash. I knew I was out of shape, but not being able to walk for 4 days afterwards was an eye opener. On Saturday Jarom and I signed up for the YMCA. This way I can bring the kids while I workout and not have to worry about trying to workout around Jarom's schedule. Today I used the elliptical machine for 30 minutes, exercised my abs on the ball, then went to my 1st yoga class (I want to be cool like Nikki and be able to do the Dwi Pada Viparita Dandasana) and have the rest of the week planned out with:
Tue, Pilates and abs
Wed,Fusion Yoga/Pilates and 30 min of cardio
Thur,SS Yoga Stretch and abs
Fri,Yoga and 30 min of cardio
The Y is awesome because it has a ton of classes you can take and the child care are all included in the membership price. I am very excited to start getting into shape. Then I don't feel so bad when I eat my junk food that I cannot give up. Wish me luck!

Atempt #2 at the zoo

When we woke up the weather said it would be in the upper 60's and wouldn't rain until the late afternoon, so we decided to try to go to the zoo again with Morgan, Savannah, Christine and her nephew Chandler. It started off great it was around 65 degrees when we arrived and partly cloudy.
Morgan and Saige walking Saige said she wanted to see the alligators, so we saw them first with all the reptiles.
Then we went into the aquarium where Savannah loved looking at all the fish. We also saw the hippos, Komodo dragons, and tortoises.Saige and Christine peeking out of the hole like a prairie dog.Savannah in an egg shell Saige and Chandler in an egg shell
Then it started to rain so we took shelter in the Farm expo building, played for awhile and ate our lunch. Savannah eating her sandwich in a big girl chair.
When the rain stopped we went back out to see more animals.

Then it started to rain again and the animals were all hiding so we left around noon. It was 57 degrees and raining, but still not as cold as Monday and we were able to stay longer this time. Thank You Christine for the invite. We will go with you again any time. We all had a lot of fun.

Outside

What a beautiful day! It was 75 degrees yesterday and sunny my kind of weather, so we went for a walk in the wagon.
When the girls got tired of the wagon they walked holding hands. How sweet!

New Fun with Jenna Grace

Saige's new favorite thing to do is throw water balloons over the porch and try to pop them.

Then I lift her over the rail to throw the balloons that didn't pop on the first try.
Savannah came up to me holding a caterpillar. She squeezed it so hard that it was bleeding and later died. She likes anything that moves.
Jenna Grace and Saige went exploring outside and found some beautiful flowers they just had to have.

When mom's away

When I came home from shopping all of the couch cushions were in a pile on the floor. Jarom told me to look at the camera for pictures of what they have been up to.
climbing all over and jumping off the couch onto the cushions.
Later Saige fell asleep in the middle of them. Too much FUN!
