McWane Center

Saturday, my mom had her company picnic at the McWane Center. We decided to make it a family event (minus Joe -- he was playing golf!!), and take the kids. Reese had the most fun....here is a picture of her and Mimi dancing on some kind of foot game thingy.....not sure what it was exactly, but Reese loved it!!



Poppa and Chalie
Charlie driving the car!!

This car was obviously made for little people -- not mommy's!!

Today's Project

HOW CUTE!!!!!!! I am having so much fun with this!!! I've made a couple of other things too, but I can't post them because I'm giving them as gifts......I LOVE my machine!! =)

Last Day of Gymboree

Sporting the shirt mommy made me!!
Sniff, sniff.....today was our last day of Gymboree. Reese and I have had so much fun at our Mommy and me class. We have made friends with the teachers and other children and parents, and Reese has learned so much. She was just a mere crawler when we started, now she climbs, runs and conquers any and every obstacle they have set up. Next Tuesday is our first day of MDO so that is why we are no longer going. We are moving on to the next chapter in her little life and it makes me sad. =(
On a lighter note, Reese I am soooooo proud of you!! As of Sunday night, you no longer want a bottle before bedtime. That's right, my 18mo old was still taking a bottle -- so shoot me!!! So far, so good.....I don't even think she misses her bottle! Yayyyyyyy, Reese!!!


A final "hip, hip, hoooooraaayyy" at Gymboree
(See Charlie sitting up so big? He loves Gymboree just as much as Reese!! I'm going to start him in a class just as soon as he starts crawling)

Our class was small today -- probably because it was so yuck outside. There's usually about 7 or 8 kids in her class.
Here's Liz and Maralyn, Me and Charlie, Miss. Nancy(the instructor) and Reese, Andrew and his mommy and Sammy and his mommy.
Goodbye Mommy and Me class!!!!

Oh my gosh!!!


Look at what I did!!! Yayyyyyy! I love it -- Reese is going to look so cute. I will post pics of her running around in her shirt tomorrow!!

Memorial Day at Mimi and Poppa's




See this face? We're seeing this a lot latetly -- we are in super WHINE mode these days. And when we're around Mimi, it's WORSE!! She wants nothing to do with anyone but Mimi and if Mimi doesn't hold her and love her the entire time Mimi is with her, this is what happens......whine, whine, whine. I hope this ends soon!! =)

That's the face I like to see!!

We went to my mom and dad's house on Memorial Day to cook out and let the kids play. We had so much fun. Reese played in her pool and Charlie watched from his walker!! We made homemade ice cream and a good time was had by all!!! Happy Memorial Day!!!
(The picture of Joe throwing Reese in the air makes me gasp, but she seems to like it....they do it all the time!!)
