Keep Beating Song Please!!!!

After our trip to Orlando I purchased the Leona Lewis CD and have admittedly listened to it incessantly. The humurous part of the story is that seeing as it is in the Camry I no longer think to turn it on. Mayce however has fallen in love with "Keep Bleeding" from the album (although she is sure that it says beating and not bleeding) and everytime we are in the car she asks for us to put on the "Keep Beating Song PLEASE." I oblige much more willingly than Buck due to the fact that he swears he's had to listen to the song so much that his ears keep bleeding!! Anyway here is Mayce rocking out to her version of the song..ENJOY!!

Fun in the Sun

As the days get hotter and the indoors seem more and more confining to Mayce we decided that we should look into other options for entertainment besides Super Why and Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. Seeing as Mayce and Jasmine had a blast the other night playing around in the pool at Ryan and Trish's the hunt was on for one of our own. Although not exactly what I was looking for in the beginning, after Mayce and I searched out all those available the alligator was the clear winner and has already proved well worth the money. Not a day has passed since bringing it home that she hasn't asked to go in her pool and play with her duckies. Buck and I have enjoyed the time outside as well and suprisingly enough Savannah has not attempted to get in she just drinks from it. The lesser of the two I assure you.
We did missplace the string needed to secure the slides to the bottom of the pool so watching Mayce trying to scale them has served as our own comic relief. Nevertheless we found it today and I'm sure we will be attaching them shortly, perhaps after one more day of laughter.

...or the Living Room!!

The day that we bought the pool the skies opened up in a torrential downpour of HAIL!!! Of course I had promised Mayce we would play in the pool so we aired it and up and took over the living room...alligator style!!


Pomp and Circumstance

So I know, I know its been awhile but things have been hectic to say the least. With the onset of summer comes milestones for some and we were thrilled to help celebrate the graduation of two of "our girls". Kristen and Julia and have been tremendous assets to our lives and Mayce's so we just wanted to say congrats to the girls and enjoy the fun.
Unfortunately for them every time they are around all of the littles flock to them!! From the left it is Michael, Jasmine, Mayce, Julia, Chance, and Kristen. The swing was a huge hit and they probably spent half of the time we were at the party going "back and forth, back and forth." They also took full advantage of their situation by procurring sweets from every available adult. Sleep was hard to come by the night as you can well imagine.During one of our swinging sessions we started to discuss everyone's toes and Mayce became sad when she noticed that Jasmine's toes "Don't have pink on them." Ryan quickly rectified the issue by hunting down Kristen and borrowing some nail polish. The funniest thing was that Jasmine was scared to walk on them afterwards and later when taking her bath she told Trish that she didn't want to wash her toes because she didn't want the pink to come off!!!
Just us...you can tell Mayce is so thrilled to be included in the picture. I thought this wasn't supposed to happen until she was in her teens?!?!
