Our princesses today...

Here are our little princesses today. We found this Cinderella dress at a garage sale this morning for $1. It's way too big so I pulled it together in the back and tied it.. to say Taylor LOVES it would be an understatement. I love this little Gymboree romper of Hailey's. Too cute.

Happy Birthday Logan! Last Night...

We went over to Justin & Heather's last night for some more birthday ice cream cake on Logan's actual birthday. It was delicious and a fun night.



Everyone was clapping to get Logan to look at the camera and Taylor thought it was great...



I don't know if I've actually gotten a picture of the two of them together before now...



Taylor loved Karen's shoes, and she had the cutest shake of the hips to go along with the walk...



This is what Hailey did most of the night. She was pooped.
Happy Birthday again, Logan! Thanks for sharing your day with us.

This week's update..

I'm seriously lacking in posting this week again. Here is our week so far.



These are some pictures from Saturday morning. "I love my Diego," said Taylor. Hailey was watching Daddy play baseball for a few minutes while I got dressed for Logan's party.



I didn't have my camera on me until we went to the park, so this is the only picture I got at Logan's party. The girls had fun, though it was extremely hot. So, they didn't get to play too long at the park.



Here are the girls on Sunday. (Grandma's don't print this- because I already printed it for you and it's in the mail)



This is the hail we got last night. It was raining buckets for about 20 minutes, literally a river going down our street. Glad it stopped or we would've had water in the basement for sure. Taylor did not like this storm, it was a loud one.

Matching..



Here are the girls before meeting tonight in their matching shirts from Alaska and the skirts I bought right before Hailey was born. Unfortunately, Hailey's outfit didn't make it all the way through meeting as she had a nasty diaper. Oh well, we tried. It was cute while it lasted.

2 Month Dr Checkup

Hailey's 2 month checkup went pretty well. She is 11.5 lbs and about 22 in long. Dr still hears her heart murmur but we go in July 31st for another echo to see if it's better than last time. She had 3 shots and an oral vaccine today, which of course didn't go over too well. She like the taste of the oral one though. Dr said her rash is just a baby rash, not anything that's going to last or to worry about. She doesn't think it's baby acne or eczema. Probably just dry skin. We're to put 1% hydrocortisone on it twice a day and use a dandruff shampoo on her hair and face to moisturize it and make the rash go away. Something I've never heard but I guess it makes sense. Overall she was happy with how Hailey's growing and acting. Said she's ahead for her age.
