Too Cute
Annie looked so cute today with her 'pigs' that Daddy put in - with an almost perfect part! Had to throw this on real quick before bedtime!!!

The Third Child
Well, Emily already has a great shortage of "alone" pictures compared to Ben and Annie, but she is getting to a really fun age! These are a few of my favorites.
The wide open grin that comes with a deep chuckle...
Sitting in her bumbo seat (Did they even make these when the others were still 'little'???). Emily is really quite lucky when she gets a chance to sit there because both Ben and Annie LOVE it! We set up toys for her to look at and the child is just so content!
Yes, Emily is a thumb-sucker! She started this all on her own and loves that little thumb. We've debated between the thumb or trying to get her on a pacifier since she 'needs' it. The pacifier didn't work because she just gets *REALLY* mad after about 10 seconds of vigorous sucking when nothing comes out. We now burrito her with her left arm out (because it has to be the left thumb) so she will sleep - otherwise she will lay and scream her guts out for a LONGLONGLONG time. I know because I tried... Although our average night sleep is around 8 hours, our best time was 11 hours and 30 minutes. Girl, you can have that thumb all you want - until you are about 18 months and then would you please give it up with no fight? Pretty Please??? She still looks so precious with it because her hand just curves around her face. Love that girl with all her rolls! Next time she has a bath or just a diaper I've got to capture her squishy body that we LOVE to squeeze on! I can't believe my baby is already 3 1/2 months old!

Some Favorite Parts of Addy's Trip
Cutting out pictures to make "projects." Please notice which hand Annie is using to color with. :)
When I needed everyone in one place, I would call out, "Attention!" and they would come running and salute. This was especially helpful when it was time to do everyone's hair, get shoes on, or finish a few tasks before leaving the house. I love how hard Annie is trying to salute! They are all soooo much fun!
I hate playdough - it makes a mess, Annie eats it, and it just feels funny. Thankfully for my children Addy enjoys playdough... however Annie was still in the corner eating it.

Campbell Green Water Park
While Addy was here we went twice to the water park close to Grandma's house. It was a great way for the little ones to run around and for Addy to get cool!Monday, June 25, 2007
Zoo Trip with Aunt Jamie
Well apparently the Dallas Zoo is a lot more fun with Aunt Jamie than plain old Mom. We bought a zoo pass a month ago and have already used it three times, however those trips pale in comparision to this one...
Each person got his/her OWN cotton candy!
I was just happy to finally get a picture of Emily smiling - probably beacsue she also enjoyed all the cotton candy. :)
We haven't once gone into the bird house with all our trips, but now that the kids know it is there I think we will pop in every time! This was in addition to horseback rides, carousel rides, and playing in the stream! What a blast!!!
