A big ole mess...

My poor blog is just a big mess... Turns out this mobile blogging ain't as easy as I thought it was gonna be. I try daily to take funny, cute pics and videos of my kids daily and thought it'd be so easy to blog right away. But life gets in the way and I'm behind. So what I've decided to do is go through pics and videos and post till I'm caught up. Some pics will be repeats of course but maybe I will be able to share a story instead of just blank posts. Try to keep up!!!

Potty training...

Potty training is harder than it looks but when it all comes together, it's totally worth the frustration that Ryan and Joe and I went through. This video says it all...and if anyone who reads this blog ever needs a good laugh, just play this clip over and over. It gets better every time. The video is about three months old but we are still proud that she has accomplished potty training!!!

Ryan's 3rd birthday...

We celebrated Ryan's 3rd birthday this year with a strawberry patch theme!!! She picked it out and changed her mind once or twice but finally settled on the strawberries. Thanks to everyone who helped me stay on task and on budget (for the most part, anyway) and all those who celebrated with us. I hope Ryan had as much fun at the party as I did putting it all together!!! Can't wait to get started on Brittyn's first birthday, it'll be here before I know it!!!

Stuck...

Being stuck was one of Ryan's first words when she was younger...from being stuck in a fun way to being stuck in a bad way (timeout, trouble, etc). I guess some things never change...


I guess Brittyn is gonna be following in Ryan's footsteps too...getting stuck or left in small spaces. Except Brittyn is gonna have a snack while she's stuck
:-).











And after being stuck, sometimes it's just nice to spread out and relax...

Easter 2011

How could I forget to blog about Easter? It's Brittyn's first Easter, after all. I'm trying to catch up on my blogging, especially since now I can blog on my iPhone. I'm so excited about that because I snap so many pics from my phone and while I can
Follow all the steps to get pics from the phone to my desktop and find the time to sit down and write an entry for the pictures, I am always welcome to new ways of making my life easier. Thank you iPhone for the app for that.

So, Easter has come and been gone for a while so I will try to recall as much as possible. We went to church in Bristol and ate lunch at Papa's then we wet home, changed clothes and geared up for another meal at the Longfellow home. I got Ryan a precious Easter dress and let Brittyn wear the dress that grandma made for Ryan's first Easter. I love that she is able to do that for my girls. Now they have both worn the same dress for their baby blessing and their first Easter!!! We took pictures at both houses, had a good time and came home with full bellies!!!

Happy Easter 2011!!!

Man, it's hot...

So what do we do in FL when it gets hot? And by hot I mean hotter than 75, which is more than hot enough for me. Of course, we go SWIMMING!!! This is Brittyn's first time in the pool, so we tried to take things slow. Britt loved the pool, these photos were taken back in May, so she's a big fan of the pool now. She wasn't a fan of the coordinating hat that i made her wear but we gotta be safe in the sun!!! As always, Ryan is loving the pool, jumping in and out on her own, with the assistance of her life jacket of course. She's gonna be swimming on her own before we know it!!!
