We finally caved!

Bria has been begging us to get a puppy for the longest time now and we finally gave in and got a puppy. He was 9 weeks old when we got him. He is a shih tsu ( I think that is how you spell it). Dan wanted to name our first son Max but I convinced him to name the dog that and not his son so he wouldn't be made fun of. So we have a little puppy named Max. He is the cutest dog there is. I tell you what he is just like a little kid, he pees on the floor, he sticks everything is his mouth and chews on anything and everything he can find.

Bailey has been afraid of dogs for the longest time and now that we have him she carries him around all day long. Even when he is trying to escape her arms. The girls really love him.

Happy Birthday DAD!

The girls wanted to give you something special for your birthday so here it goes!

Girls Slumber Party

The girls and I decided that we were going to have a slumber party in our living room and have popcorn and watch a movie. It got off to a late start but it was a lot of fun. We watched Bolt and had sleeping bags and popcorn galore! It was about 11:15 before the girls got to sleep and they still got up at 8:30!

Bailey's 3rd Birthday!

Bailey's birthday was the day before Easter this year, so the morning of her birthday we went to an Easter egg hunt. We went to one that my parents ward was having. It turned out to be fun and really fun for the girls. Bailey was unsure about it at first but then got the hang of it and got a lot of eggs. Then we came home and had a friend party and I made her cake. They had a talent show and played around and ate cupcakes. After that party she wanted to go to applebee's so we went there for a late lunch before the family party began. She got way too much stuff but she had a lot of fun. My baby is now 3 years old. Here are pictures from the fun day!

Toothless!

Just to keep you updated Bria is on a role with the losing teeth thing. She now has 2 gone on the bottom and the top 2 are a little loose. Here before long she is going to have to eat runny foods because she won't have teeth left.

The end of the BINKI

We finally decided that Bailey needed to get rid of her binki so on Friday February 27, 2009 we told her that the binki fairy was going to come and take her binki's and give her some money. She was all for it so she went and got one her purses and put both of her binki's in it. She put it by the mickey mouse where she would put her binki everyday(so she couldn't reach them during the day). She went to bed for about a minute then decided that she wanted them back. We were not going to cave, so we listened to her until about 11:45 that night. In the end she is still without a binki and doing OK!

Bria's First Tooth!

Bria finally lost her first tooth on March 3, 2009. An historical day in her life. It had been lose for a week or so and we went over to Grandma and Grandpa VanZandt's house for dinner that night and Dan kept asking her if he could pull it out. She finally told him yes and within a few tugs with a napkin it came out. She only cried for a minute, she was so brave. I think that Dan was more excited than she was because he got to pull out his first tooth. The new tooth was already coming through so it was a good thing it came out. She was so excited for the tooth fairy to come she went to bed early just for that. She got $2.40 but only for the first tooth or at least that is what the tooth fairy told me. Now she has to work on her next one that is lose. It was her bottom right to her and the left one is coming out now.
