Spring is just about here!!

We are so glad that Daylight Savings Time is this weekend. The girls are ready to start spending the evenings outdoors playing.
She is not supposed to be playing in the rocks ; )
Lacie is not loving the sun in this pic

Rodeo 2011

We went to the rodeo with Daddy on Friday morning, and when we first got there, we went straight to the petting zoo. Right as Cas walked in, a goat nibbled at her ankles, so she was scared the rest of the morning. Well ... we went back this morning, and thankfully she did a 180, as she had a blast!! She even had a little melt down when I told her it was time to move on to the next exhibit.
Fun times!!

Debating on whether she wants to go on a pony ride or not!!

Touch a Truck

Even though the title sounds like something only a little boy would like, Cassie really enjoyed the truck "rally" our neighborhood recently hosted.

This girl never stops smiling, and I LOVE it!!

Lacie's favorite - Bath Time

Lacie would stay in the bath all day. She gets so giddy when we bring out her tub.

Stiff as a board!!

"Flying" with Daddy

Sisterly LOVE

These days, Cassie is doing much better with Lacie ... and she now thinks that she is her Mommy. She tries to burp, feed, provide the paci and even brush Lacie's non-existent teeth.
So sweet!!

Causing trouble

Oh my!!!
I just can't resist these wild hair pics ... you can tell she does not mind ; )

Ponytail time!!

You all don't see her hair in a ponytail often, because I am doing
good just to get us all out the door these days ; )

Why oh why Mommy ...


Tears of sadness ... all because of having to wear that cute hat!!

Not minding this hat as much.

Random pics

I am really sorry that I have not updated the blog in 2.5 months!! I have received many requests, so here is a quick stab at it (I just added 8 posts ... LOL).

Having two babies this close in age is very challenging, but I must say, each day gets better. Cassie gets a little more mature, and Lacie sleeps a little longer. In the beginning, I only got about two hours of sleep each day, but that has since increased. Cassie is talking more and more, which reduces her frustration, but at the end of the day, she is still very young and requires a lot of attention. God answered my prayers, and gave us an easy baby (so far) ... unless it is feeding time, Lacie is pure happiness and full of smiles.

After 9 years in the corporate world, I decided to take a little break from work and focus on being a Mommy. It was a very hard decision, but the best for our family. I already miss my co-workers, but I hope to return to Anadarko when the girls are a little older. I am such a high energy woman, so my days are already full with a Mom's bible study, MOPs, Gymboree, Baby Boot Camp and LOTS of fun playdates with friends (I never sit still).

Wade of course is the best Daddy, and I tell him everyday that I could not do all this without him!!!
Lacie loves tummy time (Cas hated it).
I love those cheeks.
Mom ... stop taking pics of me ; )
Blue eyed beauty!!

Me and my girls : )

Daddy and his girls

Twins!!
Cassie is very excited about seeing the giraffes.

Christmas

We had a wonderful Christmas with our new family of four!!
