Big girl Bath

Christmas Rocked! Ainzley got lots of cool toys - Campbell only tried to steal a few of them :) To name a few:
  • a cool table that makes a lot of fun noises from Daddy
  • A cool CPK (Cabbage Patch Kid) named Bernita from Grita...We might have to do a name change.
  • a cool musical top from Beck
  • a pooh phone with a light up honeypot antenna from Melva and Omar.

But one of the best toys she got was from Campbell.
She got some really cool "Little People". She even got a set for the tub. She has graduated out of the baby blue tub to the real deal. She had her first big girl bath in the big tub. She LOVED it! Check her out...


Then check out the video...Quack Quack Quack!

Turkey



It was our first Thanksgiving! We spent the whole time in Austin with Auntie Poopsie and Uncle Al...and of course Campbell. We had a great time! It was not without stress though. Ainzley had an allergic reaction to something Tuesday before we left. Broke out in hives and the whole deal. So of course that gave me something to obsess over all week. It didn't seem to bother her much - she was still in her wonderful mood. Although we pretty much all have digital cameras and iphones, I do believe this is the only picture that got taken...

smallest billy goat gruff

Well I am a little behind...I have been meaning to put up or Halloween picts for a couple of weeks now and just haven't got around too it. But I think Renee's blog deserves a rebuttal...But first, check out what a cute goat she is:

Taking pictures was quite an experience. Although they were both cute as can be, they were not very cooperative. Well one more than the other...Campbell was in her cute little bee costume and would simply have no part of the goat. Quite frankly she would have no part of being told where to stand, sit, or pose. Renee prides herself on being the 'Queen', but it is quite obvious Campbell is the Queen Bee.

This is the one picture we managed to get of the both of them...Way to go Zeke (photographer)!

LIttle Inchworm



Well I have a couple of things to add to our blog. First, we now have a tooth. Yep. One big tooth right in the front on the bottom. She won't let you see it, but you can feel it - I mean if you are willing to put your finger in her mouth. haha

The other really funny thing is Ainzley's crawl. No she can't actually crawl yet, but she has your own way of moving around. She does what I call the inch worm. There are really no words to describe how she does this. You just have to see it...so check out the video! (She lays on her back and uses her legs to push her around - like an inch worm) Poopsie (renee) thinks it is hilarious. But you really have to see for yourself. Too cute.

You dirty dog

Every time Ainzley takes a bath Earlene is soooo annoying!!! She tries to climb up to see what is going on in the tub... So Haylie tossed her furry butt in!!! Neither Ainzley nor Earlene cared all that much. Until Ainzley started splashing,then Earlene bolted!

First stroll

Ainzley had her first ride in her stroller. Much overdue I might add. After a couple of shopping trips me and mom decided that we were tired of carrying her heavy booty around - are arms felt like they might rip right out of our sockets. She loved her stroller anyway :) It was a win win situation...

Ainzley's BIG bite!!



I am so excited...Ainzley got to start eating cereal yesterday. She wasn't too sure about the whole thing, but most of it went in and stayed in. Check it out for yourself...and the video too.

Play date

We had our first play date yesterday. We went to Reese's (mom: Lindsay) house to play before we went to the doctor...that is a story for a later blog.

Reese is 3 days younger than me. She was born on April 5th. At first they didn't know what to think of each other, but with some encouragement they were really cute. Even 'holding hands'.

Long trip to Ennis










Well, we are back from our very long trip to Ennis. It was quite the experience - 6 hours in the car. Ainzley slept almost all the way only waking up for a snack now and then. Then it was back to sleep. She slept with Gezibelle most of the way. What a good baby she is to put up with the long car ride.











We had fun hanging out at the lake. Mostly we just hung out - some people fished, played washers/horseshoes, and other outdoorsy type things. We mainly tried to stay cool and out of the sun. Swinging on the deck was our favorite outdoor activity!










MY DADDY LIKES PIE...




Well Melvin is not normally a big dessert eater. But he does like pie. One of his favorites happens to be pecan pie. He has been on the search for the perfect pecan pie for a while now. I will mention at this point that 'perfect' means (and I quote) "just like my grandma used to make." The best contender so far has been Bill Millers.




It just so happens that there was a pecan pie this weekend. Melvin finally got around to eating a slice and instantly fell in love with it. "This is the best pecan pie I have ever had since grandma." On and on he went about the damn pie. "And the crust is so flakey..." (here comes my favorite part and again I quote, "And I know good crust."



So I decide to ask Judy if she made the pecan pie, which she did. Then I ask her the million dollar question...did you make the crust. She said "no, you can buy it in the frozen section - its pilsbury" So I guess he does know good crust, its made by pilsbury. hahaha men are so stupid :)



So the ride home was even a longer one than the one up there. We stopped about half way to grab a bite to eat. I took Ainzley in to do a diaper change and let her stretch a bit. We stopped off at the DQ. I do not want to step on the Bathroom Goddess' toes so I will not mention the condition of the bathroom (unique smell, overflowing trash can, etc.) But when I put Ainzley on the changing table, she she stretched out and just layed there. I think it is safe to say she was sick and tired of being in her car seat. :) Glad to be home!!

Doing wash



Grita says she never gets any help around the house...but I am clearly helping her fold clothes!!

Swimming is cool


We went 'swimming' today. She wasn't sure about the whole thing...she liked it I guess. She still can't sit up by herself so someone (dayce) had to hold her. I have a little video too, so check it out. Isn't her suit cute?

competition

Well, I guess we have to keep up. Renee always says we are Campbell's competition...so here goes. So far I can only post about how cute Ainzley is. She has a fabulous smile and she LOVES bath time and the hammock. No tricks yet...unless kicking your foot into (every) dirty diaper is considered a trick. I don't think so :( More later
