Buddies

My good friend Natalie is in town for a few days so yesterday we grabbed some Cafe Rio and took our little peeps to the "Cinderella" park. We decided it takes us A LOT longer to just get some lunch and have a picnic now that these babies have entered our world. But we made the best of the little time we had.

Taryn was so funny trying to be a mommy to Lincoln. She kept trying to put his binki in his mouth and feed him puffs. But when it came to him playing with any toys she made sure to snatch them back. We'll have to work on the sharing thing.

There were some older kids swinging on the other side and they were all bummed out when Lincoln's swinging motion was in sync with theirs..."Oh man, I'm married to the baby!" Ha, Natalie and I thought that was pretty funny, she even caught it on video.

Dangit! We were talking about the fact that there aren't many pictures of ourselves on our blogs - we shouldv'e taken one! Guess that's a good reason for us to see each other again before you go!

UPDATE:
Here's our picture! Yay for us...

MOHAWK

That's Hot.

I'm playing too!

Mags posted this and I'm going to copy, I thought it was a fun one!

I am... generally a happy person.

I think... eating chocolate is the best thing ever.

I know... that my Heavenly Father loves me.

I want... to be a good mother.

I wish... money grew on trees.

I hate... when I open a cup of yogurt and it squirts on me.

I miss... my little honda accord. It was a good car - thanks Dad.

I fear... spiders of any size and earthquakes.

I feel... dirty and sweaty from weeding my flower beds.

I hear... crickets

I smell... probably not very good considering my answer two rows up.

I search... for cheap sales everywhere I go.

I wonder... when Taryn will figure out how to walk all by herself.

I regret... hurting anyones feelings - ever.

I love... when Robbie comes home from work and Taryn yells Dada with a huge grin on her face.

I care... about my house being clean more than I should - I'm a little OCD that way.

I always... open the blinds in my kitchen first thing in the morning.

I am not... a very patient person.

I believe... in eternal life.

I dance... in front of Taryn, a lot.

I sing... the national anthem by myself and I think I'm pretty good :)

I don't always... brush my teeth before I go to bed.

I write... too many lists that get crumpled up in my purse.

I win... random drawings like free meals, concert tickets, slippers....ya random.

I lose... my temper when I am clumsy.

I never... read my fortune before I finish the cookie. (ever since I met Robbie)

I listen... to church music when I feel down.

I'm scared of... hot air balloons.

I read... Stephenie Meyers books and I love them.

I am happy about... my life exactly how it is.

I tag YOU... if you want to play!

So you thought you could talk trash on us???

I love moments like this in the Olympics when it looks as though there is no hope for the gold and then a miracle happens right before our eyes! Robbie and I both jumped and screamed as we watched this world record breaking relay race. The French team had said they were going to
"smash the American's...that's what we're here for."

Well I guess they screwed up on that one!

The moment I have been waiting for....

DRUM ROLL PLEASE!!!

Yes this may be pushing it, but I have been
waiting for this moment for
15 months.
I had an extra teeny baby elastic lying around so I thought, maybe just maybe I could see if pigtails would be possible.

And here are the results...

Yesterday at my parent's house - Amy had many more baby elastics!

And today after a trip to walmart...

more baby elastics and itty bitty clipies!

Then this
happened
after eating
lunch and
experimenting
with lasagna
as hair product,
so it was
time for a bath
and another
go with
the new
hairdo!




Yes, that is a toothbrush in her mouth...lucky for me she loves to brush her teeth!




I don't know if we'll keep these an every day look because now I'm afraid all the hair she does have will rip out! But maybe every now and then we'll give them a go! :)

Thirsty???

I'm not quite sure if Taryn get's confused by all the water around her or if she knows it's entertainment for the rest of us, but this has been her new thing to do at the pool!
What a goof - and check out the sweet comb over she's got at the end.

Classic.

I'M IT!
