Little girls are made out of... piggy tails..

I really did not ever believe that I would be dressing up a little girl, doing piggy tails and fun girly things. Don't get me wrong, I love my son "to the moon and back" but I am loving the girly stuff. Here are just a few pictures of Jenna and her hair styles!

The first picture was my first attempt at piggy tails.. ever with Jenna. She looked more like an alien and less like a cute little girl. Second picture is my second attempt at piggy tails and they worked!!! But as you can see in the fourth picture.. that is what they look like after a 3 hour ride to the cities, with a bonnet on and a good nap! The third picture is just soo darn cute and my first style I tried on her for the wedding we attended for my step sister Cindy on Saturday.

Roller Skating and Butt Rash....

What a combination right! Jackson was sooo excited to get his roller skates out... and he did GREAT with them. We went up and down the road and visited our neighbors driveway which is really slanted so Jackson got a fun ride down the hill. On the way back he saw his speech teacher Patty and her daughter walking. "Who is dat girl Patty". Its my daughter. I said, her daughter is cute.. Jackson pipes up "YOU A HOT CHICKIE".... laugh laugh laugh!!! Her daughter loved that and asked if she could take Jackson home! Jenna went with us but just had fun watching her brother and taking in everything around her. Jenna is on her last day of antibiotics and just like last time she got a bad butt rash...BAD. So the last picture is of her sitting on a towel on our kitchen floor eating a gluten free muffin.... naked from waist down... Trying to give her some time to air out. Poor thing... it looks soo painful!

Dance Dance Dance

First I have to apologize for my constant laughing and the wiggling of the camera during this video but I had been watching Jenna dance and every time I got the camera out to film it she would stop. I finally got her on video. Watch her right leg.. she shakes it and it just cracks me up. After she figured out I was videoing her she started giving me attitude. I was laughing soo hard!

Soo many pictures... so little time

So this weekend we added some cypress mulch to our flower gardens, played baseball, enjoyed the sun and wonderful weather, baked and cooked a TON of gluten free stuff... yum and took our first of many trips to the ZOO!! It is 5 minutes away if that so we are frequent visitors through out the summer. Jackson and Jenna enjoyed it throughly!!! At one point I was nervous the bear was really trying to figure out how to eat Jenna for a snack. He kept coming right over to us and checking her out. Enjoy the pictures and video's!!!!

Spring is finally here????? I DO say that with some hesitation.

I have said it before... and we just got 15 inches of snow... dare I say it again.... spring is here?? Yesterday we were able to be outside for the better half of the day and enjoyed ourself soo much. We even got come cypress mulch for our flower gardens. We have wanted to do that for a long time. The kids loved being outside despite it is still a little wet. In some of the pictures you will see the pond behind our hedges.. hopefully that will dry up soon. Jackson is practicing up for t-ball this summer. I am excited since this is his first "big boy" activity. We have done swimming lessons and gymnastics.. but this is all about him!!! Jenna helped me plant my hanging flower pot. I KILL everything so I am going to give this a go. We'll see. And finally, pictures of toes in the grass.... my FAVORITE thing. I HATE HATE HATE shoes and socks... so in the summer we all go barefoot as much as possible.

All Done.... yes she really says it!

So Jenna is learning and imitating words all the time. Her new one is all done. The other day at breakfast she had devoured three gluten free pancakes and some watermellon and said out of the blue... all done. We caught her on tape doing it a bit after that.

My favorite kind of night.. home with the kids!!

Although dad was MIA (working) we had a GREAT night! Got home, ate leftovers, took a bath, then Jackson said... lets have a puppet show. He found two boxes, drew doors and windows on them and I cut them out. (In the first picture you can kind of see one of the boxes behind Spiderman.. I mean... Jackson) We then proceeded to have a puppet show and his friends (webkins and star pals) watched. Jenna wasn't too into it but rather wanted to look out the window. She loves to be outside but our weather is not allowing it. Very wet and chilly yet. Where o where is SPRING!
A sneak peek inside the house. Stripes (his tiger webkins) had the remote in there, an empty cup and motrin... just incase.. A tiger has to always be prepared.
Jackson taking a picture of me.... taking a picture of him!
Smiley girl looking outside. She was saying... da da... as she was looking outside... (excuse the no trim work around the windows.. blessing I have a contractor as a husband.. curse because they start projects but have to move onto ones they get paid for doing)

Awwwwe!!! Gotta love that face!
