Girls Pictures

I decided it was time to get some updated pictures of the girls, since the ones on my blog were a year old. My friend, Allison, took the girls pictures. She is so talented and took some really great shots. You can check out her blog and see all the great work that she does!

Grandma in town and girls day!!

Addison was very excited to be able to spend the day with the big girls. She went with me and my sister, Marjory, to pick my mom up from the airport. And she wouldn't let go of Grandma's hand the whole time in the car. And while we were eating lunch, Addison couldn't stop hugging and kissing Grandma. I think she is happy to see her?!
After lunch, we went and got pedicures to celebrate my mom's birthday. Addison was so excited to get her nails done, until I put her in the chair, then she had no desire to do it anymore. We had lots of fun being pampered and getting our nails done. Ben was awesome and hung out with Caemlyn for the day, while cleaning the house (best husband ever!).

Sisters!

I heard lots of giggling and talking from Addison and Caemlyn, and then found them like this:

Sitting on top of their kitchen playing. It was cute and had to take a picture!

Caemlyn's growing up

Caemlyn is now in a big girl bed. I was not really looking forward to making this change. She was still doing fine in her crib, not even trying to get out of it. And I really thought that she would never stay in a big girl bed to go to sleep. But, I was wrong! She has been in a big girl bed this past weekend, and has being doing awesome. She goes to sleep right away and even leaves Addison alone (they share a room).

And the next thing to go, is the pacifier. We couldn't find any binkies last night so it was a perfect time to get rid of them. I knew this was going to be hard. Caemlyn is very attached to her binky. She only cried for about 45 minutes until she fell asleep. And she did wake up very early this morning and refused to go back to sleep without her binky. I think this is going to be a rough week!

The next thing is potty training. I had no desire to potty train Caemlyn or even start until after the baby was born, and she was closer to three. But, she has decided that she loves sitting on the potty. She asks to sit on the potty when she wakes up, all throughout the day, and before she goes to bed. I was ignorning her at first, but then she would just go and sit on the potty by herself. So I decided to just potty train her since she is so interested in it right now. She has never actually gone on the potty yet, but maybe that will happen soon!

Planting our garden

After Ben did all the manual labor for the garden, Addison and I planted all the seeds. Addison even made signs for all the rows. Hopefully something will grow and survive!! Ben and I had no idea what we were doing...so we will see :)
