Cake and 2 babies in the bathtub

The morning and afternoon of today was a typical errand day (even though it's Thursday!), but after supper, as I was puting the dishes in the dishwasher I looked at my big 2 year old and said "You wanna make a cake!?" It just kind of came to me. Like all of a sudden I wanted to bake a cake with my baby girl. So that's exactly what we did. I have to say, it is fun making a cake with a year old but I think it will be more fun when she gets a big older. I want to make cookies with her. I think that would be even more fun. She was really good at making the cake too. She did everything (except cracking the eggs.). She poured the cake mix in all by herself, poured the water all by herself, put the eggs in with a little bit of help, and poured the oil in. She smiled almost the whole time. Even if it is fattening I think we are going to start doing this more often. It was so much fun!!! Paetyn was watching the whole time. (Didn't cry for attention either!) Of course, like any child, eating the mix after we made the cake and put it in oven, was her favorite part. She got it all over herself. :) Perfectly fine with me though! I know I shouldn't have but I even gave Paetyn a few little tastes. She didn't know what to think. It was cute though!

We went to town earlier today (obviously for errands) but I stopped in Hobby Lobby again. I think that place should be my weakness. I mean they have SO much awesome stuff. Anyways, I bought Paetyn a new headband and hairbow. :) I LOVE it. Next time I am going to get a crotchet hat. They are so adorable and Paetyn looks great in them. :) I think I am going to start making the hairbows if Danny actually pays child support. It would save money maybe and then I could even make matching ones for both girls. And I could match them to my favorite clothes and they would probably end up with so much more hairbows than if I just buy them (I mean theres only so many already made hairbows out there).

Now for the most fun part of the day. In my opinion anyway. I put Paetyn in the bath with Laykin today for the first time. :) It was so cute. They both LOVED it. :) They splashed and splashed and splashed. Well Laykin splashed and Paetyn kicked and watched. She didn't really smile (Paetyn) I think she was still trying to sink everything in. She's never gotten to sit up in the bathtub, well other than when she took a bath with me. Laykin loved having Paetyn in the bathtub with her. I know we definently will have to do this again, but not any time soon. Paetyn isn't quite big enough for this to be a normal thing. Maybe every now and again until she can sit up and then it might be everynight. I can't believe how big my baby girl is getting. How big they both are getting. It's amazing. :) I love them so much. I am so proud of them, so amazed by them. I love being their mom. Thank you God for bringing these beautiful girls into my life. For granting me the pleasure of being their mother. Thank you!

Park

I really have to stop putting these posts off until the next day. I remember that last night there was alot that I wanted to write about but I can't remember what! UGH!!!

Took the girls to the park today! Had so much fun. Laykin got to see the duckies and Paetyn just likes being outside. :) PICS!!!!

So... that's all I can think that happened yesterday. :( Maybe more will come to me later.

Now I could get used to this!

Today felt like a pretty darn good day. (Even though we didn't have water all day because my dog busted a pipe!) The morning was normal, woke up, (found out about the pipe) did our reading time and the girls went down for a naps. When they woke up I put Paetyn in the wrap and the three of us went out for a walk! When we got to the ponies up the road the baby pony actually came up to the fence and tried to play with us!!! :) Laykin wanted so badly to pet him. The walk was so refreshing. Laykin got to run with Baye (our dog) and Paetyn just chilled in the wrap and she even tried talking to the Pony. It was so adorable!!!! When we got home Laykin played in the yard and I put Paetyn in the swing. She was so tired, she almost fell asleep. Then my dad came home and started working on the broken pipe/faucet. He had to go to Lowes to get the stuff to fix it so I told him we wanted to ride along. (Just to get out of the house you know?!) When we got there I told him I wanted to look at flowers because Laykin has started showing interest in planting things and I wanted to look at what would be a good plan for her to start out with. Well, we got the parts we needed, and we walked outside and looked at all the flowers. Wow were they gorgeous! I think my favorite flower is still a weed... I love Dandelions (sp?)!! Well, just as we were walking to the cashier I saw a My first Garden Elmo thing. It was Cherry Tomatoes. Dad said we could get it so we did. :) I was stoked!! So when we got home, after dad fixed the pipe, we planted Laykins Cherry Tomatoes!! :) PICS!!!!

My big girl was so proud of her plants!! I can't believe she's gotten that big. She is planting plants everyone!! WOW!! Wasn't she just learning to hold her head up? That definently wasn't the biggest accomplishment in my opinion of today!! My princess counted to six all by herself today!! I mean may not be like a big thing but for the longest time, she would skip number four and today twice she counted to six! I actually got a video of it too!

EEK! She's so big!! Well, I think that's about it. Ti'll tomorow!!

UGGH!!

Today started off being sooo good!!! I finally felt better, the girls were in good moods and then the dryer decided to QUIT and things went downhill from there. My camera has started taking dark pictures and then Laykin got into a HORRIBLE mood!!! UGH!!!! I Love her so much but I hate her moods. lol.

PICS

So... I know I have been slacking lately. I just have been feeling like a big ol' pile of poop!! I think I have a stomach bug! It's had me laying on the couch cuddled next to paetyn for the past 3 days. Yes I have gotten online but it wasn't long enough to really do anything. lol. So nothing new has really happened in the past few days. Other than all the sickness. lol. Went and got the girls pictures taken on Friday. Although Laykin was being a total brat in the morning when our first appointment was, the lady let us come back that afternoon and she was much better. She was still a brat but much better. We went to the park twice that day the second time Papaw met us there. it was NICE! I got tons of pictures. :) I think I am going to put a post after this one of nothing but pictures because I am not in the mood to drag pictures. Umm.. Saturday, we done our errands since I couldn't do them on Friday. When we went to Walmart Dad let me get New Moon! AWESOME movie!!!! I'm glad I got it. I'm not a Twihard or anything but I LOVE the movies. :) Anyways, That's all for now. I am going to post the pictures when I feel better.
