Playpen Fun

I love love love pictures of when both of the girls are smiling ans looking at the camera. Luckily it hasn't been to hard since Tori loves the attention and Macy is one of the happiest, smiley babies ever.
Macy isn't one to sit on the sidelines. This girl is ready to be playing, running, and getting in on the action. One way she likes to feel bigger than she is is by standing up in she playpen, and shimming around.

Tori likes to get in the playpen with Macy from time to time. Macy doesn't mind this at all except when Tori starts to Jump around.
With all of Tori's jumping Macy was ready to get out.

Scooter

Macy is scooting around now a days! It is so exciting to see get her get around. I know every one says this, but just like all the other moms, I can't believe how fast my little baby is growing. The second child seem to grow so much faster than the first.

Tori Fish

Say hello to Tori's pet fish Tori Fish. Tori picked this guy out, and you guess it, even named him. Tori Fish has proved to be a survivor. While I was bringing him and his tank to the kitchen to be cleaned I dropped him. At first I wasn't to worried about the the fish because all I needed to do was pick him up and put him in the new water I had prepared. However when I went to pick him up I could not find him. I was thinking, How could I loose a fish? I looked under the fridge, dishwasher, the pile of little peddles on my floor, but Tori Fish was no where to be found. At that point I started to worry that this lost betta fish was going to die in some unseen crack of my home and stink up kitchen. I called Jake to make sure Tori Fish hadn't die and been flushed the past day. Of course Jake hadn't done anything to the fish. Then it dawned on me to look in the vent. I did and low and behold there was Tori Fish laying still at the bottom of the dusty vent. I took the vent off, reached for the fish, and he wiggled all around when I touched him. I was so happy he was alive and found, and not dead.

Little Old Lady

Tori reminds me of a little old lady in this picture sitting in her stroller under her blanket.

Dreams

This is my dream stroller. Literally! I have been having dreams about this stroller. Probably because I want one so dang bad. I would feel so cool walking down the street with this sweet thing. If you must know this masterpiece it is a Phil and Teds Sport. It isn't long, it isn't wide, it is perfect.

Zoo Day

Tori, Macy, and I went to the zoo, and met up with Grandma, Wendee, and Brockston. We had so much fun! Of course Tori loved seeing the animals. When she is asked what animal she really liked she has a different answer each time so I guess she really like all of them. However on the way to the zoo she really wanted to see a piggy. So maybe we will have to take a trip to Thanksgiving point sometime soon.

Cute smiles

Crazy faces

I don't think B-rock was to excited about sharing his stroller

Tori looks a little scared of this Orangatang but she was not. She loved Him! He was a very active and very fun to watch as he ate apple sauce from a jar and played around.

The elephants were another of Tori's favorite animals. The baby elephant was especially exciting to see.

Tori saw the giraffe poop and that is what she remembers about him.

Zoo was zonked after our visit to the zoo. She slept the entire way home, got home then slept on the floor for two hours. I was a little worried that she wouldn't sleep well through the night from taking such a long and late nap, but she slept soundly all night long.

Dance Head

HAHAHA... I had so much fun with Odessa doing this Dance Head recording thing. I have to recommend going to the Provo Towne Center and giving this a try. Being able to move your head all around and make facial expressions is extremely entertaining

Building a Gate

When I told Tori it was time to go to bed she decided to build a gate in between her self and her room with the huge bags of protein and pancake mix.

Macy's Treat

Oh, Hi Mom.

Hmm, I wonder what these are.

Lets see if I can eat them...

Oh my heavens these are so yummy. How many can I get in my mouth

Crawfish Again

This is my forth year to be invited to a huge company party at which delectable crawfish are served. I enjoyed my self very much.

When Tori saw the crawfish she said, "Look, Mommy, Sebastien!" I was a little worried she was going to be a little traumatized be me twisting off the Sebastien's tail, peeling it, and then eating him. However, she wasn't traumatized at all. She just laughed when I told her I was going to him, and then didn't care at all after that.

I tried to get Tori to tell me again who I was about to eat on video, but it is never quite the second time around. I hope you enjoy it anyway.

Tori had a lot of fun with all the other activities going on like the train ride and the rockets, but wasn't convinced to try the crawfish. That is okay, because I think it would have been a little to spicy for her anyway.
