Randy has been trying to get me to play Twister for quite some time. Right after I found out Delaney played at school, I immediately informed him so he could have a playmate. It was too funny to watch. Delaney doesn't quite get it but loves to play anyway. As you see, of course she plays in a princess dress.
Just trying to get some shots of the belly on my little one. She loves to flaunt it and poke it out.
The little stool in our kitchen serves as a snacking zone for Maya.
Loving bath time.
Maya shows off all of her new language skills while in the bath. Her new word is "Abby" which is her best friend at school. She says that much more than "mama" or "daddy".
Kiss!!!
Delaney and Maya love giving kisses and hugs to each other.
I am usually the one that takes Delaney on special mommy/daughter outings, whether it is to Target, Publix, or birthday parties. Randy has really been wanting a Laney Day so he took her to the circus. If you know me, you know I have a small little problem with clowns so this worked out perfectly. The two of them had so much fun and Delaney absolutely loved it. I am going to be a big girl and go next year.
**Sidenote: Bless his heart, Randy tried his best with pictures but they are a little fuzzy.
Trapeeze
Daddy and his little one.
Randy said there was lots of fire.
Tightrope
Fuzzy little Doodle face
Tigers
Shooting someone out of cannon on fire.
Apparently at the circus they shoot some guy out of a cannon and he is on fire. I love Randy and Delaney's conversation during this.
A little popcorn snack at intermission.
The elephants
The elephants doing tricks at the cirus. Randy makes me laugh with his "yuck" during this video.
A bit hit for Delaney at the circus were the elephants.
Randy loves to play video games and Zelda is one of his favorites. Delaney can sit and watch it for hours---not play it---watch it. She actually requests it quite often which makes Randy oh so happy. Apparently there is something about that game because Maya, as you can see, is fascinated by it too.
While Delaney took a long nap after the circus Maya got a little Daddy play time.
Grammy and Nutty stopped by and brought a huge bunch of clothes for the girls. Target was having a sale on not only Disney princess attire but the Harajuku Mini line, which is the clothing line designed by Gwen Stefani that is super cute. Delaney and Maya got hooked up with a lot of adorable new outfits and shoes. Delaney decided to try everything on at one time.
The girls got matching Snow White attire. Delaney, who is usually the tough one to get to smile for the camera was loving it today and Maya, who is usually hamming it up for the camera wouldn't smile a bit. My attempt for a cute sisters pic didn't go so well.
Even though Maya isn't smiling it's still pretty darn cute.
Because we have friends and family all over the world, I decided to post pics of our new house until all of you get to see it in person. Kimmy and Suzianners---this is especially for you because of your special request. :)
Dining room---and please ignore messes as I take these pics. With two children, two dogs, a cat, and two frogs (and now a snail!!!) things can get messy and unorganized.
Front room/piano room
Front room with lots of family pics and mom's first edition book collection
Office----this is where I see the kids that come to my house for therapy. I pull in the little table from the girls' playroom and we are good to go.
Downstairs full bath
Playroom minus the little table and chairs
Kitchen with corner stove.
Breakfast nook
Living room
Living room that shows how the house goes straight back and just flows. I love the kitchen being right off the living room. Makes it so easy while I am cooking. The playroom is right off of the kitchen too which is fantastic.
Back porch
Deck
Back yard
Randy's room/dog room/poker room/exercise room
Best laundry room in the world with tons of counter space, a sink, and a little bathroom off to the side.
BEautiful window in the stairway
Master bedroom with a little Mia thrown in
Showing built-in drawers in the master walk-in closet
Screen porch off of master bedroom
Bathroom with super tub and huge walk-in shower
Trying to show separate make up area. I thought this would help me more with my makeup application. Not so much.
Maya's sweet room
Girls' bathroom with a rubber ducky theme. They have about 4,000 rubber ducks in the bathtub from Mae West duck to Mr. T duck. It provides for hours of entertainment while bathing.
Mia's room/music room/not sure what to do with it room but it has a train set and a balaphone and stores my therapy equipment so that works for me.
Guest room----come for a visit!!!!
Laney Loo's room
I think one of the many reasons I fell in love with this house was all of the built-in bookshelves---we have them in the living room, front room, both girls' bedrooms, and the guest room. I just kept picturing how functional they would be for the girls at any age. When someone overbid us on the house I just kept picturing the bookshelves and how I had already planned for them. Silly....I know.
Just wanted to show you the house. We LOVE LOVE LOVE it and will be here for a very, very, very long time so come visit us!!!!!
