Birthday day at the Zoo

Watching the bird show..

Gma and Gpa Randa, along with Great Gma Julie came to the zoo with us! It was fun to spend the day together.

Happy 2nd Birthday Allison!

She woke up from her nap and saw that cake on the table...she climbed right up on the chair...and after moments of thinking about it....she took a taste! It was fun to watch her.

Yummy

Here are a few pictures from Allison's 2nd Birthday. We had fun celebrating with family, enjoying the nice weather and reminiscing about Allison.

Some things Allison can do at age 2:

Say all her ABC's

Count to 10 (she mixes 6 and 7 up)

Knows a handful of colors

Make most animal sounds

Put shirt on, put pants on, put socks on

Sisters

Christy 16 weeks pregnant - Jordyn 27 weeks pregnant

I told Katie - you know - if she got preg - we could all three be preg together; at the same time!! She said she's not interested, yet! Ok, so I'll quit bugging her...it would be cool though.

Christy-Katie-Jordyn

It was fun all being together for Allison's birthday. I love these ladies!

Picking out our punpkin

Don't you just love fall? I love the leaves falling, the change in weather, and I remember just 2 years ago - waiting to be a mom! This season is special. It's even more special with the best pumpkin of all -ALLISON!

Apple cider and cider donuts...yum!

That's our pumpkin!

She found one!

Kitchen fun

Hey - she's supposed to be stirring, not eating!

Helping Mommy in the kitchen.

She loves apples!

Neighborhood Picnic 2011

We had a good time at our annual neighborhood picnic. We met some new neighbors and ate good bbq. Allison enjoyed playing in the bounce houses. Our very own Brennon serves as the vice president of our HOA - and I have to say - this is my favorite event they do.

Jump, jump, jumping..

Allison and the neighborhood kiddos

14 weeks pregnant with baby #2...

In case you haven't heard...we are expecting baby #2 in March 2012! I am 14 weeks along in the picture above. Lots of sickness this time around, but feeling much better now that I'm out of the first trimester. Allison really has no clue what is to come, but she likes to point to my tummy and say "baby in there". She is cute. It's good to 'feel good' now. I'm cherishing this time with only Allison. She's at such a busy stage and needs lots of interaction and attention. Did I say I was tired a lot? Yah, whatever, that's a given when you're chasing a 2 year old around all the time!
