Victoria's 1st haircut

So, I know she is 2 yrs old but she is a girl and did not need her haircut. I took her to my best friend and her Auntie Kari. She got about a half inch cut off and her hair came back with more curls. she did so well. She sat still for her and then she got her candy for being such a big girl. She was so excited to get her haircut and she kept asking me if I was done yet, as I went first for a haircut. I think that she is good for another 2 years. I took some pics hope you enjoy.

My Birthday

So, I am 32 now. I do not feel that old at all and as a matter of fact I was told that I act older than my age...that is good. My girls, mom, best friend, her kids, her mom and another friend went to lunch like we always do. I got some shirts, earring, shoes, scrapbooking kit, scrapbooking gift certficate, pj's and my Cricut carrying bag. It was a good day.

My Beautiful Girls

Elizabeth is now 7 mos and doing great. She is cutting 6 teeth in and 2 are already in. Victoria is also doing great and still loves being a big sister as you can see in the picture.

Still sucks that thumb sometimes

Zoo

We bought a Zoo pass for this year and I have taken the girls every month since February when we got it, sometimes we go twice or more a month. We have been having so much fun. We have to see the Elephants, Giraffes, Rhinos, Turtles and then ride the Carousel two times. If we see other animals it is OK but Victoria has to see these ones. Here are some pics from three trips ago. And luckily the only thing that Victoria wants to buy are tatoos and they are chaep...so as many trips to the zoo that we are making I get out paying nothing really and that is good.

All the kids

A lot of firsts

Elizabeth is cutting her first tooth and another one is right behind it. She getting ready to crawl soon I think. Louis left us for two weeks on a business trip. The girls and I went to our Uncle's house in Wyoming. I got stung by a wasp in my boob....that REALLY hurt badly. Victoria can count to 15 by herself and 20 with help. She knows her ABC song and can recognize some of the letters.

I have been trying to teach Elizabeth to say mommy and she just looks at me and smiles. She is so dang funny. Victoria is still the best big sister that anyone could ask for. She is such a little mommy. She tells me that Elizabeth is her baby and if I tell her she is mine she will respond with we all share her. It is so cute.

We are planning our first offical family trip to Disneyland in October. My mom and God daughter, Ashely are going with us. I am RELALY excited to go and so is Victoria. She talks about it a lot.

Time is going quickly

My baby just turned 7 months and my oldest is 2. It seems like yesterday that I had Elizabeth and it seems like ages since I had Victoria. My girls are growing up way too fast even if I do not want them too. I do find myself holding Elizabeth back a little such as; I just started to let her sit in the high chair at resturants and let her feed real food by herself and not feed her. I just want them to stay little for a longer period of time. I find myself looking at pictures of Victoria when she was a baby and I can hardly remember that time in my life. She is so mature for her age and is such a lovely little girl. Elizabeth just loves to watch her sister and learn from her. It is hard for me because we are done having babies and I love being pregnant and going through labor. I would have a million if I could. I enjoy my girls more than anything else on this planet and I am so VERY thankful that they are in my life. I just recently cried when I heard a song on the radio...it is called My Cinderella. A boy is asking a father for his daughter's hand in marriage and I bawled because someday a boy will take both of my girls away from us and it will break my heart. Victoria heard me crying and wiped my tears away and told me not to cry. She is so darling and caring. I think of their future so much and at times I am so excited for them to experience all that life has in store for them and other times it breaks me heart to think of them all grown up. I honestly could not be any happier in my life. I have the best husband who allows me to stay home and take care of our girls. Then I have the best two little girls that a mother could ever ask for. I am blessed in so many ways and I could never put into words how I feel about the 3 of them. As the saying goes in, Guess How Much I Love You..I love them to the moon and back.

Elizabeth's Funny Face

Elizabeth does this funny thing with her face and it is so cute and funny. She will scrunch up her nose and snort. She loves it when you laugh at her and do it back to her. She will keep doing it as long as you either laugh or do it too. She has been doing this for months now and I just kept forgetting to video it. She is growing up so fast and it is sad. She is my last baby and I want her to be a baby forever but she wants to grow up.
