Happy Father's Day!!!

Happy Father's Day Daddy! We love you!!

This is what happens when Kylee doesn't take a bottle! Best Daddy Ever!!

So my good friend Jennie turned 30 and her husband planned a wine trip weekend n Austin. I knew about this trip before Kylee was born but decided just to go for the day since Kylee would only be 2 months old. I have been trying to give Kylee a bottle since she was about 3 or 4 weeks and she just wanted nothing to do with it. I had Chris, my mom and my neighbor try and no luck. I was going to cancel the trip when Chris said he woud figure out a way to feed her that day. This is how he fed her from 8:00 am to 7:00 pm. He is AMAZING!! How many dads would feed their children from a medicine dropper??? They spent most of the day at my parents so they could help out with Olivia. They all had a great time and I was very thankful to spend a day with my good friends! It was a nice get away but I was glad to get home to see my baby girls and of course Chris.

For Father's day I made the girls matching shirts that said "Daddy's Girl" which we surprised him with as well as a round of golf with my dad and brother. I also thought I was being creative and bought him a nice bottle of wine from the Becker winery and Chris informed me he has had it before from HEB. But, he did make me feel better by saying it was better than what he had from HEB! We went to Double Dave's pizza for lunch and of course Olivia LOVED it! I think she was more excited than Chris. It was a great family day!!!

We love you!

Summer Fun!

Our Family June 6, 2011

Olivia and Kylee playing babies together!

We have been staying busy so far this summer. I started a work out group called Baby Boot camp where I take the girls and get a good work out and spend time with my two babies. Both girls do pretty good in the stroller but we have our times where we need a break. The other moms have kids around the same ages as Olivia and Kylee so it is nice to get to visit with the moms and Olivia get to play. We go to story time on Wednesdays and tomorrow Olivia starts the Little Gym. So until August we will be pretty busy over the summer.

Now that Kylee is getting older I am going to start potty training Olivia. I am going to wait until Chris takes his week of vacation to start so I have some help. It was very easy taking away the pacifier and putting her in a big girl bed but, I am thinking that potty training is going to be a little more difficult. Since I have been home, Olivia has really stated talking a lot more. We are so proud of her and it is making her seem so much more grown up. It is hard to believe that Olivia is already 2 1/2! She is so much fun and full of personality.

Our favorite line from Olivia, "Daddy fish pole." It is so cute to hear her say that. To bad that when Chris wants to take her fishing it better be some where the fish bite right away!!! She is not one to sit for very long!

Kylee is 2 months

I can't believe that it has been 2 months already! Kylee is growing so fast and already has so much personality. She is 13 pounds 11ounces and 24 inches long. She is smiling and cooing all the time and is such a great night time sleeper. As for a day time napper I can't comment since she doesn't really nap as much as little rests. Her head is very strong and she loves sitting up. She is not a big fan of tummy time but we work on it a little bit each day. It is weird looking at pictures of Olivia at this age. She was already balding! Kylee is not showing any signs of losing her hair but, it looks like it might come back lighter.  We are working on Kylee taking a bottle but like her sister it is not going well. It is so odd how Olivia was a soothie(pacifier) freak! She LOVED them!! Kylee wants nothing to do ANY type of pacifier. Kylee is very laid back and just kind of hangs out. The only time she cries is when she is tired, hungry or when mommy is not holding her. But, we are working on that. Chris and I are so very blessed and thankful for our girls! They are so amazing!
