Ady's Birthday Is SOON!

So my little stinker is almost 3....I can not believe I will have a 3 year old in a matter of weeks. Ryan and I did some birthday shopping today and wanted to give you guys some details so that we did not overlap!

For her birthday she keeps saying she wants a blue birthday cake with a mermaid on it....so we are working on finding a bakery at the beach who can do that! We basically stayed in the realm of everything Disney. The little mermaid, princess and the frog, and Tinkerbell are her favorites! We wanted to get her a barbie with a pony but it did not make it into the buggy. So if anyone wants an idea, there is a great Rapunzel horse and Rapunzel barbie doll that she would love. She saw it at Toys R Us the other day and really loved it. We also saw quite a few real cameras in the toy section at Toys R Us as well. Ryan and I saw a variety of cameras that range from $30-$60 that she would love, just remember.....if she can not see the picture digitally when she takes the picture then it is no better than the fake cameras. You guys might think that is too old for Ady, but trust me she loves to steal mine.

Also, anything for the pool or the beach would be good too! Since we are traveling we will probably not bring any swim stuff except for her floaties.

I hope everyone is as busy and happy as we are! Miss you all terribly!

Almost August

What can I say.......IT'S HOT!

Mexican Fiesta

This is a bakery that we went to for lunch in the middle of the mexican market in downtown San Antonio...is was so great!

We Are POOPED!

So I asked Ady what her favorite part of the vacation was and she said,"the big bed with the big telephones." So there you go.....wonderful Sea World vacation, dolphins, whales, sea lions, huge swimming pools.....and Ady's favorite thing was the hotel with the old school cord telephones. Maybe next year we will opt for a night at a hotel here in Norman Oklahoma and forget the big vacation. What are ya going to do? Kids love the simple things!

Sea World

I would recommend Sea World to anyone who has small children. It was sooooo much fun. Ady loved watching the shows...so much that she went home with Finn her new dolphin and Shamu her new whale. So we have now replaced kitty and puppy at bed time for Finn and Shamu. We tried to trade them for "her silky blanky" but she wasn't having any of that!

Swimming With Papa Is The Best!

This was Ady's pool at the hotel....such a great pool for little kids. She loved it....and so did Papa.

Getting Ready For Sea World

This is our little traveler! She is much better than her mama! This is Miss Ady on her way to Sea World....she never complains....even on an 8 hour drive.

So since we moved in our new home we have been trying to add to our home little by little. We finally have a study and the bonus....it can be used as a spare bedroom!!! I hope everyone loves it as much as I do. It is a great room for coffee and computer time!

New Patio Decor

We have been working so hard on getting our outdoor entertainment area ready for people to enjoy. We have been digging holes for the last two months. (And when I say "we" I really mean Ryan :) Take a little time to enjoy the view.

Ady's New Sand Station

A couple of weeks ago we were so lucky to have Nonna and Grandpa come out to OK to visit us. What was supposed to be a vacation for them turned much more into a vacation for me and a work checklist for them. It was great! Grandpa cut down all of the dead tree that the tornado took in May...killed the big scary snake that lived in the front bushes...pulled out the gigantic pampas grasses....and built Ady this wonderful sand pit or as Ady would like to call it, "my sand pile."

This is usually where you will find us!
