Daddy's Girls

The girls are all about their Daddy these days! Riley goes around the house saying "DAD-EEEEEE" "DAD-EEEEEEE"! And then both go running to the door as soon as they hear the little ding ding of the alarm, they know that sounds means Daddy's Home!!! I am pretty sure it is the highlight of his day seeing those faces light up at the sight of him! They are both yelling his name, giggling, and trying to jump in his arms. I just sit back and watch them in awe! And then we have the nights where they beg to go and wait outside for him, so that is what we do and they get so excited when they see that white truck drive up! Even Roux starts going nuts!




They love their Daddy! Probably because he lives for making them happy and loves to see them smile! For example, this was their entertainment the other night-






And oh how we all laughed!!! It was wonderful suprise to the weekly night ho hum! And the girls just ate it up! That's their Daddy!!!!

July 4th Weekend

Our long Holiday Weekend started out with a sleep over at Emery's House. The girls were so excited and talked about their sleep over all week! Ya Ya was there babysitting Em and Harper while Kyle and Erin were at the beach. Ya Ya bought the girls some Toy Story Popcorn which they loved and ate while they watched Toy Story! They had alot of fun, but boy did they wear us out! I think we all finally collasped around 10p!



The next morning I took Ella Kate and Emery for a little outing together. We went and purchased dance shoes, made a trip to Pigtails and Crewcuts for a haircut for Miss EK, and then to Walmart. I made a promise to the girls if they were good, they could have a treat. They decided they wanted marshmallows, no idea where they came up with this, but this Mama said "easy enough" and we grabbed us some mini marshmellows from Walmart and were good to go! Next stop was McDonalds drive thru for some happy meals for lunch, but wouldn't you know it, both girls were snoozing by this time in the back seat. They were so sweet together and it was a treat for me to spend the morning with them!




We had a low key but fun 4th of July! The kids got to hang out together and we did a little swimming over at Emery's house. Later that night, Scott and I loaded the girls in the car and drove around the neighborhood looking at all of the fireworks! Riley did not seem that impressed and fell asleep but EK loved it, Scott let her sit up in the front with me and put down the sun roof for her and she "ohhhhed" and "awwwwed"!





Ella Kate had her first dance class yesterday! EK and her BFF Emery were all smiles for class and reminded me so much of Erin and I so many years ago! They were too cute and were pretty good if I do say so myself!




And here are just a few random cute pics of the girls and a funny video of Riley in action!!!

Our Little Blueberry Picker

MeMe invited Ella Kate on a little Blueberry Picking Adventure last week! Her Nanny and Parrain and cousins also joined in on the fun! She had such a great time and loved picking as well as eating her little berries!

Here is a pic of the lil diva en route to her Berry destination-
