Shoes

Amelia LOVES putting on shoes. Her shoes, my shoes, Dustin's shoes or Ainsley's shoes...doesn't really matter who they belong to. And this is her favorite position and location for putting them on.

Multipurpose Toy Box

This toy box just might be the best purchase we've made in the past year. Now instead of a mountain of toys on the fireplace always in view, they almost all are hidden in the toy box out of view. Ainsley is learning the new rule of one toy out, one toy in and she loves bossing around Amelia and making sure she knows to only take one at a time.

However, the girls think it just might be the best purchase we've made in the past year because they now have a new perch to watch daddy in the backyard or get a better view of birds and squirrels in the back yard.

Reese

My parents dog, Reese, passed away very unexpectedly. He was a sweet dog and the girls loved him.

Renaissance Fair

We visited Scarborough Faire in Waxahacie with Dustin's family. It was hot. The girls were red in the face when we left, but luckily a little AC did them good and no sunburns resulted.






















It was also interesting...as in good people watching. Very good people watching.














Ainsley, our little fraidy cat, actually got on some rides. We were pleasantly surprised. However, she panicked in the petting zoo when the turtle started following us around.

All Dolled Up!

Someone got into mommy's lipstick when daddy wasn't looking!

Up Close and Personal

Amelia is my little daredevil. She got a little too up close and personal with the side of the bath tub. Thank God for Aunt Michelle! There is absolutely nothing better than a cousin who doubles as a pediatric ER doctor in her spare time to talk you out of taking your child to the doctor on a weekend after viewing pictures emailed to her cell phone.

Perfect Pair of Pigtails

I love Ainsley's pigtails. They could not be more perfect. Her hair immediately falls into one perfectly formed ringlet when pulled up into a pigtail.

Dallas Blooms

We went to the Dallas Arboretum today for the last day of Dallas Blooms. Many of the tulips have started to lose their petals, but the azaleas were absolutely beautiful.





























On the way to the exit, someone fell asleep and drew a lot of comments from other visitors at the Arboretum.

Other Dallas Blooms Pictures

Here are some other pictures from Dallas Blooms without the girls.

Happy Easter!

We have had an exhausting day! Amelia ran a high fever last night thanks to her ear infections (she is getting tubes on Wednesday). So she was tired from the getgo this morning. The girls quickly picked through their Easter baskets before we headed to church. After church we went to Dustin's parents for lunch and Ainsley hunted for eggs in the front yard. She's a funny girl. She's very serious about hunting eggs. I know she enjoys it, but she had a serious look on her face the entire time. She posed for me once she was done. The girls were exhausted and both passed out on the way home.
