HUGE NEWS!!!

Aylah's first tooth popped through yesterday! It's her bottom middle right tooth. I think the one next to it will be through very soon too! I can't believe it came so early! She is only 4 months and 6 days today. Serenity didn't get her first tooth until right after she turned 6 months. I've been trying to get a picture of Aylah's tooth, but it's still pretty little and she likes to stick her tongue out when I try to look at it. I'll get a picture for all of you when it grows a little bit.

This is me venting...

Davey went to the field on Sunday. It is a part of his job. However...could someone please explain to me why so many things have to go wrong while he's gone. You know, when I could use a little help. When he left I was pretty sick and now my downstairs that I spent a whole day cleaning is all messy again! Yesterday Serenity woke up with pink eye and Aylah has been feverish so I took the girls to the dr. I thought Aylah was cutting her first tooth, but feared that she was getting what Davey had or what I had. This morning I can finally see the tooth under her gums!!! Hopefully it doesn't take long to pop through. Serenity and I are going to have a day of fun....gotta run!

Aylah's first feeding!!!

Well, first of all I am horribly sick at the moment (Nicole, good thing we didn't come up last week). They're telling me it's the flu, but I am more in pain with a sore throat and I keep sneezing which is hurting my throat even more. Enough about me though...

Aylah had her first real food today. She ate about 5 baby bites of rice cereal mixed with formula. I am pretty sure she liked it. She sat in Serenity's old eating chair and Serenity buckled her in. Each bite I gave her Serenity wiped her mouth clean with a wipe. She was very helpful! Here are a few photos of the event and a few other cute pics of the girls:

I did clean...

So, I cleaned...downstairs anyways. Maybe I'll get around to upstairs next week...

Here is a taggy I made for Aylah. Serenity can't live without hers. Serenity's first daycare, Patty gave her a taggy and she loved it so much we bought another one and she won't go to bed without one. Of course we call it a "Ba"..makes sense right? So anyway...here it is:

Clean like the wind...

I am devoting my day to cleaning today. My thought is that if I voice my intentions on my blog then I have to do it...right? I mean what would you all think if I said I was going to do something and didn't do it? I'll try to post some pictures of my clean house later today...

wish me luck...I'm going to need it!

Sunday morning...

Well, It's Sunday morning...I am at the computer, Serenity is watching "Go, Diego, Go!", Davey is still sleeping because he got called into work last night at 11pm and got home at 3am, and Aylah is taking her morning nap. That's right! She has a schedule now...too bad I've only figured out the morning nap time is 8:50. Hopefully I'll figure out the rest soon...

Last weekend we went up to Denver to have dinner at my childhood friend, Nicole's house. Her husband, David and their daughter, Gigi was there too :) The girls had a lot of fun playing and dinner was yummy! Here are a few pictures of us at their house: (I took one of David feeding Gigi, but it was blurry)

Our trip to California...

Us girls went on a trip to California for 4 weeks! My brother, Josh and Sarah got married! Serenity was a flower girl. We love Sarah! Davey was able to fly out for the wedding. While staying at the Millier's house the girls got to go swimming in the warmed up jacuzzi, it was Aylah's first swim and the swimmer went up to her chest! We had a great trip, here are a few pictures:
