Atlanta: Me, Singne and a little Dingo baby!

Over this past weekend I had the opportunity to visit Singne in Atlanta! All by myself (thanks babe :)) Mike was out of town so it was just me, Singne and her little unborn baby girl who we now refer to has her dingo baby. I know this doesn't make any sense to anyone as to why we started refering to her baby as a dingo but every time we said it ( with a fun accent of course) we would laugh, so the joke continues....

It was such a relaxing weekend. Singne and Mike have such a beautiful home. There is plenty of space for visitors although I decided to bunk in her room anyways. We definitely had a lot of catching up to do. It has been so hard to have a lengthy conversation with her lately with the the time difference of 3 hours but we now have a set schedule as to when we will call each other so I am soooo excited for that. We stayed up late (really late) chatting, laughing, and remembering some crazy times. So fun. We registered her and the baby, looked at bedding and looked at furniture. We even fit some shopping for us in too. The weather was rainy most of the time but was a wonderful change for me.

I loved every second of my trip and can't wait to bring the entire family back in July!!! I love you Singne and thanks for having me.


Here is Singne in her nursery. Mike is so excited to get painting it....PINK! Here a few purchases we made while we were there.


We didn't take a lot pictures so when we decided we better have a few to document the trip we needed to set up the equipment!
And here we are!!!
Here we are on their porch...pretty view
And here is the picture that Singne will be mad at me for posting!!! But look at how stinkin cute she is.

Disney for a Day

We had the opportunity to go to Disneyland for the day with my sister and her family. Kevin's son is visiting from North Carolina for two weeks so for the first weekend we all headed to the happiest place on earth! We LOVE Disney so we couldn't pass :) We had such a great time. I took the two older P's while my brother and sister in law took care of the Cub! (thanks so much Seth and Dani). We were only able to spend a day and a half with the James' family while they stayed the entire weekend. We loved getting to know Braxton and the kids played really well together. We spent 13 hours at the park on Friday!!! What fun we had. We also got to see the the World of Color show which was very cool! Thanks for all the fun memories Lindz, Kev and B. We love you all so much!


After 6 hours in the car we were finally to Disney

Ok...are these kids 5 years old or a 16?






We loved the Mad Hatter...him and Alice spent 20 minutes at our table

Toothless

Big News in our house is that Peyton has lost her first tooth! It fell out while eating an apple (actually it was an oreo) at school. It was so exciting!!! I was a little late picking her up so when I did she was sitting with the entire teaching staff of La Casa and everyone was so great in sharing in her excitement. So we did contact the toothfairy and let her know we needed her to visit....which she did. It was the fastest Peyton has ever fallen asleep for us! The next morning was so amazing to see her face when she got her money!!!! I guess we enter the next chapter of of lives...

Dear Peyton: I can not believe you lost your first tooth!!! I remember exactly where I was, what we were wearing and who we were with the day that tooth came in. You were 6 months old, it was April 16 which just happened to be Easter, and we were with all our family and friends and Grayhawk for brunch! I got teary eyed that day thinking time was going by so fast and you were already getting teeth! And now almost 5 years later I am getting teary eyed thinking the exact same thing except you are losing them instead of getting them. You are so amazing! I love you so much and am so excited for all the fun things and awkward pictures that lie ahead :) muah! Love, Mom

Pretty Puppy

So we were watching football a few weeks ago at my sister and brother in laws when Kevin and I started talking about their dogs. I had commented that I have a hard time telling them apart and that he she make Jeter (the girl dog) a little more girly to make it easier on me. His response "Go For It!" So....I did. I went over to their house last night and performed a doggy makeover.

We started by giving the pup some pink highlights.....we want her to stand out! Then I painted her long toenails a beautiful red and then put some shining black bows in her hair! She looked so cute! I should of done a before and after picture but forgot. She was a good sport (and so were you Kev) and I think she likes being pampered!

Here is Kevin and Jeter mid dye

We had to let the hair dye sit for about 15 minutes
Pretty toes!!
close up
almost done
adding the bows
done!
Here hair actually looked cuter once it had dried.
Thanks for letting me come over and play!

Daddy Day X 2

This past Saturday was Daddy day at the girls school! This was Presley's first time and she was so excited to spend the morning with her dad. She was counting down the minutes to get to go. This year Trevor got to go twice because both of the girls go there. Trevor said its amazing to see the difference as they get older....this was his third time doing it with Peyton and he said she was really into her friends. But both girls soaked up their time with Daddy and can't wait for next year.

Here are Presley and Trev before they left
Same pose in the classroom

You can never shave too much
We love you Daddy!!
