Name That Card!

Ainsley still loves her flash cards and knows most of them now! You may not recognize all the words, but we do!



And a little Amelia for your viewing pleasure! The little stinker has the biggest grins, but she turns them off as soon as she sees the camera. I think it's the little light before the flash.

I Love You, You Love Me...

I've always hated that purple dinosaur and swore I'd never let my children watch him. Ha! Ainsley met Barney via a stuffed animal at daycare and that was all it took for her to fall in love. She gets overly excited now when she sees him on TV. I caught her on camera so excited that she got dizzy and fell over. She also likes to give him kisses.

Rain, Rain, Go Away...

It may look like night time outside, but it was actually about 2:30pm. What good is a new toy in the backyard when it rains the entire first week after you get it?!

Sickie Poo

Here's the reason I'm way behind. Ainsley has been sick all week. Today she seems to be finally returning to normal...I hope! This is definitely the puniest she's ever been.



***No, she does not have swine flu, but she had just about every symptom of it.

Amelia's Baptism

Amelia was baptized at St. Andrew United Methodist Church this morning. Thank you to all our family who shared in her special day! Big sister was very very tired at the end of it all.

Daddy

Sharing

Ainsley is already sharing her stuff with Amelia. However, the next book that went on the stack sent Amelia into tears.

Ainsley's Clubhouse...Private! Keep Out!

After much research, I picked out the perfect outdoor climber for Ainsley and began several weeks of stalking Craigslist postings for it. I had no clue it was in such high demand and after several failed attempts, I managed to get one. The poor guy had over a dozen phone calls about it and over 30 emails before he was able to remove his posting. He called me back first because he heard a child screaming in the background and thought we could use it. Thank you Ainsley! She pointed at it a lot and walked a circle around it before climbing right up on her first try. She scooted around on her bottom for awhile before realizing she could stand up on it. I think it will be a hit.

Baby, Baby

What one baby does, the other baby does. Ainsley put her baby in the pack and play with Amelia for a nap. Amelia was a little surprised by her new bedmate and Ainsley was mad she couldn't reach her baby to get her out.

#1 Fan

Ainsley got down during American Idol tonight. I cut off the video when she got dizzy and a little too close to Amelia, but I did get it back on in time for her standing ovation for Danny Gokey.
