I have almost forgotten about his little family blog!  Like had gotten the best of us. We keep ourselves quite busy. Dalyla in gymnastics, Anastyn in ballet, home remodeling and some occasional traveling sums up our life. Oh and don’t forget work. We have to find our fun I suppose.

Lagoon

We took the kids to lagoon last week. They had s lot of fun. 

Anastyn

Ana is now 2 1/2. She is very independent. She loves Mickey Mouse clubhouse and playing with babies. She loves Muffin the dog. She drags him around and beats him up. He takes it all. 

She loves to be outside and swinging. Her favorite right now is to play on the rings outside and workout. ;)

She is saying everything and talking really well. 

She is tough to get to sleep in her bed right now. She used to sleep so well. Now she is in our bed at least by 6 am every night. She seems to be having night terrors too. 

She needs a lot of sleep. Or night time is no fun. 

"Swing high"

"Ma ma" is grandma

"Binki" is blanket

She loves to blow kisses to me in the mornings. She caresses my face and plays with my hair. I love it. 

I love this kid. 

4th of July weekend 2016

I loved hanging out with my family at Snowbird. We watched a movie outside, ride the tram and hiked down and went swimming. Then we had a BBQ and fireworks. 

Anastyn is quite the character these days. She says most things quite clearly. She tells me "I'm fine" a lot. She refuses to stop playing to pee in the potty. 

She sings Frozen songs, you are my sunshine and the teeter totter song. 

Dalyla is just as smart as ever and quite independent. She's a fairly good big sister. Except when she has a friend over. She is doing summer school at challenger. She is really excited to start elementary at Rose Creek. She loves to sing, read and draw. Muffin sleeps with her every night. 

Anastyn age 2

What a delight!  I love my baby so much. She is very smart. She understands a lot and wants to be just like big sister. She could care less about the ABC's and she doesn't get colors right but she is speaking better. If you talked to her like an adult she completely understands. 

Here are a few of her words

"Meer" for more

"Muss" for Muffin

"Mama" for grandma

"Monies" for money

"Otay" for okay

She hasn't said I love you yet. She loves snuggles and kisses and hugs. It's amazing at how different she is from Dalyla. 

She loves to be outside, riding her scooter and swinging!  

Update

WAnastyn is loving Caioillu. She ran around the house when I turned Netflix on screaming her version of Caioillu. She counts "1,2,3,6,10". She is saying please and begging now. Like her sister. 

She jumps off everything. Lots of energy. As I type she's jumping all over me. She loves outside, snow, swinging and all outdoors. She is potty training and pretty good unless she had a pull up on. Then She just goes in her pants. 

Dalyla is doing well in school. She loves singing to Taylor Swift and Maddie and Tae. She likes watching TV and does really well at reading. She loves Challenger. She's really good with Ana. Dalyla can clean her room quite well. We are working on earning allowance with Chores. I took her skiing for the first time. She had a half day lesson and I'm dying to get her back up. She loved it. She even lost her tooth during lessons. It was a great day spending time with her alone.

Kauai 2015

We finally made it here. After a log day of flights and minimal problems we have arrived in paradise. 

Dirty Dash!

"Mama"

Dalyla calls me mama. I gotta say I love hearing this. It reminds me of my mom and when I would call her mama. 

It's a sweet genuine time and I melt. 

Dalyla dancing while having ice cream. 

Sweetest "no"

Anastyn is saying no a lot. And it is the sweetest voice and cutest "no" ever. 

She blows kisses to everyone passing by. Love this kid!

Dalyla's song

Love That's Long

I found the perfect love. You look like the perfect crystal to my heart. You are mine in every way. The kids we have are sweet like you and the games they play are fun. 

It's a horse kind of weekend.

How awesome my kids are riding the horse I used to ride. We love Rowdy!

Say cheese.
