Violets 1st Baby Food!




Yup, I decided to start on the baby foods already, I still cant believe we are already doing this and she is close to being 5 months old...WAAAAHHHHH! This morning I cleaned off Scarletts old high chair (it brought back memories of her - she said she wanted to sit in it) and had it ready for lunch time. She had booby for breakfast, lunch was booby and prunes and dinner was booby and sweet potatoes. She wasn't to keen about the sweet potatoes but she gave it a few more shots and really enjoyed it at the end:)

Violet also touched her toes on her own on June 17th! We were all enjoying dinner and there she went touching her toes so I rushed to get the camera and I captured it! yeah!

As for Scarlett we are still practicing her letters, numbers, etc but we are working a lot more on opposites and she is enjoying her books from the library. We also have been hitting story time at the library too. My princess!! And on June 6th, we enjoyed a day in the pool and so after nap we promised Scarlett we would get her a snow cone, her 1st. I got her the pink bubblegum flavored snowcone...and I had to get one for Violet (everything I eat goes to her,lol!) a strawberry and boy were they yummy, so yummy!!

Happy Fathers Day!




Today was Violets 1st Fathers day and Scarlett's 3rd Fathers Day and it was a great day for Daddy:) After breakfast this morning Scarlett and Violet made brownies for dad - he loves his chocolate. I got all the ingredients out, placed Violet in her baby coozy and we jumped at it! Scarlett really enjoyed making brownies for her dada and Violet was her Big Sisters supervisor,lol! Then Daddy and Scarlett had breakfast together and then later on that afternoon we had lunch at his dad's. I also called my dad early that morning to wish him a great Fathers Day (wish we were there to be with ya!).

WOW! We had a busy but very FUN weekend!!! Saturday we went to our good friends, The Brown's, new home in Magnolia. We spent the day at the lake, Scarlett had a blast playing in the water and with Chloe, Mikey, Jordan and Kaliegh. They really enjoyed playing with her:) We then headed back to there place for burgers and dogs. It was a fun day and it was so great to finally meet Jewel and Derrick, The Browns twins:) They look happy and very healthy.
