Paisley's Christmas Program

Pais had her little dance program at dance last week and she did great!! She loves to dance and it is so cute to see her progress in just the past 2 years of taking dance. Her little class showed us the technique they have learned so far this year, and then they did a little dance to "Up on the house top" They also learned "silent night" in sign language. Avery kept saying how beautiful the little girls were:) I would love to see Paisley stick with dancing, she is just so fun and cute to watch!

Perfect first position form:)

Avery wants to be just like Pais!

Avery turned 2!!

Avery turned 2 on Oct. 24th....I have been slacking in my blogging, so here are the highlights of Avery at 2 years old!!!
She had a Halloween themed birthday party, and the kids got to dress up in their costumes.  Avery was Tinkerbell, who she absolutely LOVES!!  Avery is such a sweet and crazy little girl, she always has us laughing!  She can be a little rough, especially with Paisley, but for the most part is loving and kind.  She loves, loves, loves anything girlie, she is always trying to get family to give her their necklace or bracelets or rings.  I have to hide my jewelry from her or else she would have it on all day long!  She loves to play with Paisley, some days they are the best of friends, and others not so much;)  She loves princesses and especially dressing up like one.  Not a day goes by that she doesn't have on a dress-up and high heal shoes.  She is most definitely a mama's girl.  Where ever I am she is not too far behind.  At home she is always hanging on me somehow.  She loves dancing and singing, it is so funny and cute to watch her and Pais put on little dance shows for us.  She hates the potty!  And will NOT be talked into doing anything she does not want to do!  She has a strong personality.  Avery is in the 89% for her height, so yes she is way tall, almost as tall as Paisley!!!  We thinks she is just so smart and sweet and we love her to pieces!!

               She enjoyed the pinata, especially when candy came out- her most favorite food;)

                     She got so excited to see the necklace, bracelets and rings she received

Rings- check, necklace- check, bracelets- check, purse- check, Binki- check

(what more does a girl need?!)

Paisley is 4 years old!!!

(Avery was a little sad she didn't get presents;)

I totally dropped the ball on posting Paisley's 4th birthday when it was actually her birthday:( But yes she is 4! I can hardly believe it has been 4 years, and that she will be attending pre-school this fall. She is growing up way to fast, but she doesn't seem to mind, she is so anxious to get big! We always tell her to stop growing and she gets so serious and says that she wants to. Paisley has such a sweet personality and is very loving, a little sensitive, but what girl isn't:) She is very concerned for her little sis Avery, anytime Avery is being watched and I have Paisley she always asks how I think Avery is doing, and is always looking out for her when playing outside or with friends. For her birthday we had a family party just at our house, because the weather was so bad. She wanted a princess party with an Ariel cake, so my mom and I attempted the cake and it turned out OK:) We love you Pais!!

Our little vacation

Has it really been 6 months since my last post?!! Well we have missed out on a lot of major postings, and I'm not going to post it all, I think that would kill me, so I am just going to pick up right here.....

Me and the girls along with my family went to St. George for the weekend, Tyler was of course out of town working:( But we still had fun! It was really nice the first few days we were there and was hot! We went hiking, played at the park and went swimming.

The main reason we went was to go to my niece, Ashlee's Baptism. It was very special, and Paisley was very interested in the entire experience, and looks forward to being baptized when she turns 8!

My wild child! She truly is the wildest thing I have ever seen, Paisley and I renamed her to-Wild Wilda(hope daddy doesn't mind:)

After we got back I decided to bring the car seats in for some much needed cleaning and after the long car ride in them they still insisted on eating dinner sitting in their seats!
