Nose like her Mama!

So we were our Jellybean friends on a field trip at Calder Dairy! As we start the tour of the farm animals Jojo throws up mid-stride. She takes a few more steps and throws up again. I ask her if she is sick or her tummy hurt. She replied in the most innocent little voice, "That stinky smell made me throwed up! "

My poor baby, I guess she has that blood hound nose just like her Mommy!

Cheerleaders!

The girls enjoyed their

Cheerleading Class.

After 5 weeks of practice they performed a nice routine at the end! Layla of course was the leader of the entire group since she remembered more of the songs and routines than others. Jojo was all over the place, loved to be LOUD and shake those pom poms! Their teacher won them over with candy or stickers at the end of every class!

Daddy's Smile

Kayden's Smile

All Daddy has to do is sing, "Smile for me" and Kayden does so. If you heard how bad Daddy sings you would smile too!

1st Tooth Out

October 12, 2010

Layla pulled out her 1st Tooth during nap time at Jellybean. Miss Jenn went above and beyond the call of duty as always and took a picture and sent it to Mommy so I could share in the moment! Layla was brave to pull it out all on her own!

October 26, 2010

Daddy helped Layla pull out her 2nd bottom tooth! Then she lost it in the white carpet, Daddy found a lemon seed and gave it back to her as her tooth. She put that seed under her pillow that night and woke-up the next morning to find absolutely nothing under her pillow!!! She then realized it was a seed not her tooth and was sooooo... mad at her Dad. Layla said with tears in her eyes, "Daddy it's all your fault the Tooth Fairy didn't come because she knew this wasn't a real tooth!" Thankfully we found the tooth put it under her pillow the next night and she awoke the next morning to $1 :) Man that Tooth Fairy is smart, no fooling her!!

Layla Riding Big Girl Bike

Miss Layla,

Always saves the good stuff for Jellybean! She rode a bike without training wheels all by herself. :)

Layla the Cook!

Layla has been driving me a little crazy lately, every time I go to the kitchen to make them something to eat she runs in behind me pushes a chair up to the counter and begs to help. Breakfast, lunch, snack or dinner it doesn't matter she is there and wants to "Cook". I learned that she has been given cooking duties at her daycare every Tuesday! Layla and her best buddy Riley get to stay in during playtime to help Mrs. Jenn prepare lunch for all the other kids at daycare. This was something I had to see once I heard about it! :) So I dropped them off one Tuesday afternoon and stayed to watch this much talk about event. I was so proud of my Big Layla, she is actually quite helpful! Since then, I have let go of the fear that she may hurt or burn herself and allow her to help me in the kitchen. And once I started looking back at some pictures, I realize that Layla has had a fascination with cooking for quite some time! I think it all started being in California, cooking Oatmeal with Papa and muffins with Auntie J! Here are a few pics of Layla doing what she loves to do way back in 2008!
