Alessandra and the water...

Alessandra loves the water. It did not take her long at all to get use to it. She actually wanted to go in deeper and deeper.

Isabella and the water..

When Isabella first went to the beach, she did not like it. The water started to come up to her toes and she turned around, ran away, and was yelling "NO" at the same time. By the end of the weekend, she was enjoying the ocean.

Let's go to the beach!

We went to the beach this past weekend. The girls had lots of fun. These sticks really kept them occupied.

Happy Birthday Alessandra!

Alessandra had a birthday party one afternoon after Mother's Morning Out. She was really excited to play with her friends, eat pizza and cake, and open presents. Her cake had her favorite - disney princeses. She was really excited that everyone was singing happy birthday to her!

On Saturday 4/12, her birthday, we spent at home eating ice cream and setting fire works off in the back yard. Billy got some bigger fireworks than what he usually gets for her. The usual is little ones that shoot sparkles into the air like a fountain. This time, he got three that shot high
up into the air and were beautiful! We waited for Isabella to go to bed since she is afarid of the fireworks. We had lots of fun watching.

Opening Presents

All the kids had fun playing and eatting together at Alessandra's birthday party. Mom's enjoyed the beautiful day that they could relax and just let the kids play.

Sisters....Ahhh finally playing nicely!

One day, the girls were quite in their room playing. That could be danger because it usually means that they are emptying out their dresser (my Dad can attest to that!) Well, to my very pleasant surprise, they emptied out the toy box so they could get in together! I would rather the toy box be emptied than the dresser!!




Isabella does not always like to sit on her booster seat. When Alessandra is in a good mood, she will share her seat with Isabella. Today there are having their favorite - pb and jelly for lunch! Don't they look like angels!

Snap Shots of Alessandra

Alessandra was so happy when she got an umbrella and poncho for her birthday from Aunt Mandi, Uncle Tom, and Kelly. She loves it and wants to play with her umbrealla every day!

Horse Ride!

The girls love to crawl up on Daddy to go for a horse ride. Isabella just started to enjoy and hold on!

Easter Pics

The day before Easter, we went to Janet and Johnny's house for lunch. Johnny's family always comes the day before Easter for lunch, egg hunt, and relaxation. There were about 60 people there and the girls had so much fun playing with the other kids. I actually started my tan this day! It was a beautiful day.

The News...

For those of you who have not heard yet, I am expecting another baby! We are very excited for the arrival of the baby - should probably be in November. An early Christmas present!

Poor Bucky

Bucky is so good with the girls. He lets them do so much to him and does not even care. Today, Alessandra decided that Bucky needed to take a nap so she gave him a pillow and tucked him in. He did not move.

Snapshots of the girls

Finally...

I finally posted more pictures. It has been a rough time since we came back down to SC. Getting all unpacked then I got sick, the girls are sick and the only one healthy is Billy, and Alessandra has not been sleeping at night. Isabella's legs are looking great! The open area on her right leg is finally healed and I have been putting coconut oil on her legs. It is amazing how good they are looking. The pediatrician looked at her legs and he was pleased that the open area is healed. Hopefully we will all be back into our routine.
