We have been pretty busy this last little while, which I love. Spring is finally here, and I love it! I am just not a winter person I have discovered.
Lizzy had her little dance recital and I would have to say that she is the cutest little Minnie mouse ever! She danced to "Hey Mickey, you're so fine" it was so dang cute, if I get ambitious I will post the video, but don't count on it. Nellie found her Minnie mouse ears from Disneyland and she had to wear them to the recital, it was really cute.
Kevin's sister Kristi moved out here, Hurray! And one of the first things she did was my hair, I was dying! The girls thought it was the coolest thing ever to watch and they helped her by giving her the foils.
I turned 30 this month, which surprisingly didn't bother me at all. I think because I am exactly where I always wanted to be when I was 30. It was a low key birthday, Kevy made me dinner and a cake and we just hung out at home. he took good care of me. It was a great birthday, I got to be with my favorite people in the world.
I loved this picture, the girlies found these glasses for Jane and so they all posed. So cute! I love having these 3 little girls.
For Mothers Day weekend we went down to Wichita to visit my brother Austin, who is doing some training in Oklahoma for the next month. It was so good to see him, it has been over a year since I had last seen him and he is getting deployed in June so I am glad we made the time to see him. The girls loved it, Austin was so sweet with them and helped out so much. I wish I had gotten a picture of him and Jane because he held her forever and she just loved it.
Nellie found a best friend in Austin, he tickled her and that is her favorite thing ever.
we promised the girls if they were good on the drive down we would take them to Chuck E. Cheese. It was pretty much all Lizzy talked about. They really enjoyed themselves,and since we had already eaten, we got out of there only spending ten dollars, it rocked.
Nellie was so exhausted from staying up late that she fell asleep with her sucker in her mouth. It was too funny, if you know Nellie and how serious she is about her candy you would know how rare this picture is.
My baby is growing so fast I can't believe it! She is already 4 months old. I took her to her checkup and she is 10 lbs. 15 oz. 4th percentile. She is actually almost two pounds smaller than Lizzy at the same age, so she may be my little tiny one. But she is healthy so I am not worried about her. I put her hair up in a little ponytail, it was so cute. I love having a baby with hair! After Nellie who was completely bald until she was almost two, it is nice.
I wish I could get more pictures of her smiling, she smiles all the time, but I just can't seem to get many of her smiling.
I bet you would never guess but Lizzy just loves her to pieces.
I just love these girls, what a blessing to be a mom!
We planted our garden again this year, I hope it does better than last year, we didn't get much from our crappy garden last year. I always find it so enjoyable to go out and see how everything is growing and get excited about picking the stuff and eating it.
It has gotten pretty warm lately and the girls were so excited to break out the swimsuits and run through the sprinklers. Nellie is surprisingly more timid around the water and hangs out around the edge.
Lizzy on the other hand is right up in the middle of things. I think it might have something to do with their ages.
She had hacked off about 3-4 inches on the side of her hair! I really wasn't too upset because I will be honest, I am a short hair kind of girl. Although I do enjoy being able to do her hair lots of different ways and pull it up and stuff. But she says to me " I wanted to cut it and you wouldn't do it." This coming two days after she told me she didn't want to cut it she wanted to grow it out! She told me she wanted to have hair like Aunt Chanelle , who has long hair, and I told her now she was going to have short hair like Mommy and she said "I don't want to be a boy!" What a punk. Well thank heaven that Kristi moved out here because the cut was going to be more complicated then the cuts that I can do so, when we took her over on Saturday Kristi cut it and did an amazing job! Thank you again Kristi! It looks so dang cute. She looks so grown up I can't believe it.
She did the back in an A line. I love it and I think Lizzy does too. I don't know if she will keep it this way, but I secretly hope she will.
We got a new van!! I don't know what I am more amazed about, the fact that I finally have a car that fits three car seats, or the fact that I actually made it five months in my Galant with three huge car seats in the back. I know people might think it is lame that I am so thrilled about a new van, but if they had ridden with Nellie and Lizzy and Jane squished in their backseat for five months they would know how I feel. 
We got them some new sunglasses and princess night gowns and they decided that they were rock stars, so they got out their play guitars and were playing for me. Notice Nellie's are Diego glasses, that girl is obsessed I tell you.
