Fun weekend

Saturday we went to a birthday party. It was a carnival theme. There was face painting, cookie making, balloon popping (obviously NOT my favorite), ball toss, sand art and more. Ryan didn’t want her face painted so she had a flower done on her arm. Cooper on the other hand was full on tiger. However, he wasn’t a fan after getting it done either. He looked so cute though.



Ryan is successfully sleeping at night in big girl attire. She is no longer wearing diapers or pull-ups and it has been 5 nights. I am so proud of her. Her teachers at school have been a huge help and I am so appreciative of the time that they are spending with her. She loves being a big girl.



I have mentioned in past blogs that she has in the past month gained more of a mature way talking. She is asking more questions as well. She is so interested in a lot that we do. Phillip has been teaching her about recycling and didn’t really know if she understood….until this morning.


Ryan: “Oh mommy, look at these bottles. These are recyclable.” She saw two water bottles on the counter. I am such a proud momma and know that Phillip is very excited. I had to call him right then and call him.


Ryan loves her iXL and I believe it will help her with her sounds. It speaks the letter and then the sound that it makes. It is for fun, but there are some learning things on there as well. She also traces letters which will help her write. She was listening to the Kai Lan music this morning while bobbing her head and said “This is a good song.” She is so funny.

Still amazed at how tall she is getting. I found a picture of her when she turned 2 and then compared it to the one below.


















































Holding her cow named Blanca. She says it's because white is Blanca in Spanish.


























One Fish, two fish, red fish, blue fish........



















































Wearing cupcake shirt for her daddy's birthday.


























Hollywood Jr... for those who don't know, I was named Hollywood when I was little because I showed up for softball tryouts in sunglasses and jewelry.

Just like her mommy and was hoping it was colored sugar....yes, she tried it. It was real sand!
