Roseland Waterpark

Lexi, Sean, Alana, Nana, Ryan, Lauren, Abby & I went to Roseland waterpark on Saturday to have some waterpark fun. Alexis would live in the water if she could, so she LOVED it! Sean, on the other hand, does not like the water so much! He will sit in a few inches of water and splash around, but hates when water is poured on his head. I had fun going down the water slides with Lex!

My Karate Kid

Alexis is my little karate kid. She goes 2 times a week and absolutely loves it! Look at her cute little serious face...

She also does gymnastics once a week and I think she will continue doing that instead of karate. Karate can start to add up pretty quickly. This past week, she has been at gymnastics camp every day. She comes home at 4 and tells me she can't wait until she goes back the next day. She is getting so good at the balance beam and she even climbed a big rope halfway up to the ceiling the other day. She is quite an impressive little 5 year old!

Already?

My little baby girl rolled from her tummy to her back yesterday! Yay Alana, but stop getting so big already! She is 10 weeks old and it seems she is doing new things everyday. Last night she slept the longest yet, from 9pm to 4:30am. Then she went back to sleep until 7:30am...yay for sleeping finally! Love that little girl!!!

Busy weekend

Gary went camping with the guys this weekend, so it was just me and the kids to have fun together this weekend. We went to the beach Friday after I was done working so they could play in the sand and on the playground, then we went to get ice cream. Saturday we went to my cousin, Cory's, graduation party on Oneida lake. It rained for a bit, but we still had fun hanging out with the family. Saturday night we went to a cookout at Gary's uncle Paul & aunt Jen's house and then we walked down the road to see the fireworks in East Syracuse. They are always the best fireworks and we were directly below them...we loved them! Alana somehow slept through most of it. I tried to cover her ears though because it was really loud. Today we went to the park & then Gary came home...now I need to sleep for a little while before Alana wakes up to eat again!

A week late

but, Happy 4th of July! These are the pictures I took of the kids in their red, white & blue outfits. We didn't do too much for the holiday, except turning the playroom into Lexi's new room. She was sharing with Sean, but that wasn't working out since he didn't always let her go to sleep when she wanted and he is a bit messier than her. So now Sean and Lexi get their own rooms and no more playroom. I am still working on the organizing part of this project...hopefully I can work on it more this weekend if the kids let me. I will post pics of their new rooms when I am done.

Gum...

and Lexi's hair does not mix. I love, love, love my little Lexi's curly hair! She was chewing gum in the car the other day (that Gary gave her) and the windows were down and blew her hair into her mouth and out came her big wad of gum into her hair. She was in the way back of the car and with her little cute voice she said, "mom? I got gum in my hair..." I turned around and saw it...a chunk right next to her face. I thought for sure we would have to cut it out, but I am so happy we didn't have to. Gary pretty much ripped a huge chunk of her hair out of the gum, but we got it all out.
No more gum in the car for her!!

Happy Birthday Sean Anthony!!!

My baby boy turned 3 today! He is such a happy & caring little boy!

We had a pirate party for him this weekend and he had so much fun with our family and friends. He got so many things that he loves and has been playing with nonstop. Tonight he wanted to go to Chuck-e-Cheese, so we did and he was so excited to run around and play games.

Happy Birthday Sean!

2 months old

Alana Leigh is 2-months-old already! She makes me smile so much every day and I am so happy she is a happy healthy girl!

Splish Splash

It has been so rainy out lately :( So I put Sean in his boots & raincoat and brought him out to splash around in the puddles. He had so much fun he didn't want to go back inside!
