Catch all blog....

So I realized recently that I haven't been blogging very much. I am usually so good with taking pictures, uploading them to the computer and blogging right away. I realized that the problem is that I haven't been taking many pictures on my camera lately. I have been taking them from my phone! I uploaded some random pictures from my phone to share. When I say random, I mean random. The beauty of the iPhone is that you can take a picture or video and text or email it right away to share. I have been neglecting the blog world, so hopefully this will get me caught up!

So, one of my favorite baby things has been the stationary positioner. Especially when the girls are young, you can take it anywhere in the house and they sit comfortably and watch what you are doing. Kiley was always so good about sitting patiently and watching Mommy. Well, Presley is a whole different story. A month or so ago, I put Presley in the positioner, turned around for a second, and this is what I came back to.

I took some action shots. Notice both of the dangling toys are no longer dangling.

Needless to say, Presley has officially grown out of the bouncer.

So as of a few weeks ago, I still hadn't purchased a double stroller. I was really struggling with the decision. We already own 5 strollers, all for different purposes of course, so it is only natural that I need multiple double strollers. The problem with this is that they are soooo expensive. I couldn't decide between a side by side or front to back stroller. One of my neighbors let me borrow her side by side "umbrella stroller" for a few days. I bundled the girls up and tested it out for a couple of days.

I loved the side by side for our walks, but they do not do well in public, especially at dr offices because they are so wide. I also learned that the umbrella stroller is not ideal for our long walks. After a lot of thought, I decided that since we walk everyday, my first priority is a good walking stroller. There are very few times when I need to take both girls out in public somewhere. Soooo....the Easter Bunny came early! We are the proud owners of the Double BOB and we absolutely love it!! We walk every day!!

This picture was also a shout out to their wonderful Aunties (Gretch, Hilary, Lisa & T)for their super cute big sister, little sister shirts. They got them for us when I was pregnant, but Presley's was size 6 months, so it finally fits and they look adorable!! Thanks girls!

We have been having play dates with other Mom's and friends. Sara and Summer came over to play one day and we tried to get a few pictures of the girls. It is impossible to get my two girls to both smile and look at the camera at the same time, much less 3 girls...here is our best attempt. We love playing with Summer!!

Guy was on spring break last week and he came to hang out with us on Monday. He listens to his radio station every week night from 430pm to 6pm. He was in heaven listening to his music outside by the pool. Presley has fun hanging with Guy too! Guy knew that Presley needed a hat if she was going to be in the sun. Kiley was sleeping in her room, so Guy went and got his hat out of his golf bag. Thanks for coming to hang with us Guy!

Mikey and I recently ordered an iPad as an anniversary gift to each other. I took the girls to a friend's house a couple of weekends ago and they were showing us an app on theirs that their little boy loves to play. Needless to say, Kiley loved it too, so it looks like it is going to be Mommy, Daddie, and Kiley's new iPad.

Hopefully this post wasn't too random and boring. I just wanted to stay caught up with pictures of my girls! I will try to get caught up on more blog posts in the next few days, so stay tuned! We have a busy couple of months and a lot of events!
