Voting!!!

Well we're going to have our own little vote. I don't think there will be as much politicing as there is in Iowa for our vote, but we would like your input. Please know this does not in any way mean that we are going to definitely chose the name with the top votes or even one of these 5 names. These are 5 names that Dustin and I both kind of like. I think we both have one that we like a little more than the others. We found the one I like the most last night. I think I like it the most??? Please even if you don't usually leave comments go ahead and vote. Just comment as anonymous and sign your name if you want to. Let the voting begin!!

Avery
Ally
Madeline
Madison
Peyton/Payton

Keep in mind I would kind of like to use my middle name as her middle name, because it is a family name. My middle name is Ellen.

Pink, pink, and more pink

Well I only thought I had previously found my inner pink. It looks like now there's even more pink to discover. We're having another girl. Everything is going great and she weighs 12 oz. Yea!!! PINK!!!

Birthday pics

We didn't get many pictures, but here are a few that we took.

In the last picture the girls are staring to open their presents and their friends are playing on the gym bar. We borrowed it from a friend of mine and it was so fun for all the kids. They loved swinging like monkeys.

18 1/2 weeks

Here's a preggo picture of me. This was on Thanksgiving day so I was 18 1/2 weeks.

Happy Birthday!!!

To My Sweet Girls:
Wow I can't believe it's been 3 years since that exciting day that you came into our lives.



You 2 can make me smile so quickly. I'm so happy that I was able to spend every single day with you until I started work. I was able to see you grow and learn so many things. What a blessing!! It has been the hardest thing in the world to leave you every day to go to work, but for the most part y'all have truly enjoyed going to daycare and Amy's house last year. It's amazing to look at each of you and try so hard to think back to when y'all were our sweet little noodles. We're so excited to see you grow and to see how God will use you to impact this world.

Cameron, your so funny and I love the way you love to make people laugh

Taylor, your sweet smile makes me melt





Happy 3rd birthday Cameron & Taylor!! I hope it is a truly special day!

A few more shots of their costumes.

Halloween

Here's a cute picture of our sweet Dora & Boots. We had a blast trick or treating and then went to our churches Trunk R Treat. The girls have been sick but still had tons of fun. I haven't even uploaded my pics yet, this is one that a friend emailed me. More to come....

Pictures

OK so I'm going to try again today to post the pictures.

Hair Cuts

We took the girls to get their hair cut today. We chopped quite a bit off. Aren't they cute? We went to the pumpkin patch this evening and the fair last weekend. So here are some pics from both outings. OK I've been trying to upload these pictures for a few days & it keeps telling me there's an image uploading problem. Be patient as soon as I can I will try again to post these pictures.

First Day of Daycare

Pictures

We went to the stockyards with Mimi, Papa, Emma, & Sophia. We also went to a drive through safari & got to feed animals. Super Fun!!!

Dr.'s Visit

I went to the doctor this past Wed. and the baby is doing well. My due date is April 20th. Ohhh! and for all of you that are interested we found out that we're just adding one more to the Walker family. So that is a huge praise!!! I'm not sure we would have been able to handle any more. I know, I know it would have been cool to have twin boys, but I would have looked like a walking zombie again for at least 6 months. So now we're just hoping that in 13 weeks when we get to find out the sex, that we'll find out that we're having a boy. We'll see!!! I'll keep y'all posted and I'll have some pics to post after this weekend. Be patient since I'm back in school again. I'm very sleepy all the time!!!

Well.....

I wanted to let y'all know that Dustin & I are going to have another baby. I'm almost 5 weeks preggo. I know everybody's next question is, "what if you have twins again?" Well I've said in the past that you'd have to go ahead and commit me into the mental hospital, but I've thought a lot about it. We would be so nervous, but I know it would also be a blessing. We'll find out in 2 weeks how many babies were talking about. Our hopes are 1 baby boy. Of course it will be a while before we get to find out the gender, but thats what we're hoping for. I'll keep everyone updated.

ps. Dad if your reading this before I've talked to you, sorry I tried to call you several times.

More Home Depot Fun

We went to home depot again this past weekend and the girls made a art caddy/tool box. We even painted them and I think they turned out really cute.

I chopped it all off!!!

I've been wanting to chop my hair off for a long time. I had kept it long until my 10 yr. reunion, but the time finally came. I'll be sending in my ponytail to locks of love tomorrow. I really like my hair. Next time I will probably even go a little shorter. Dustin doesn't love it, b/c he wants my hair to be long all the time. I was so sick of my hair being long. So tell me your thoughts. leave me a comment and give me your opinion.

Tubin' on the TN River

The girls and I got to go play in the river for a few hours the other day. They're such big girls that they actually rode the tube by themselves.

Water Park

This week I've had 3 training days for school. So today we decided to take the girls to the water park right around the corner from us. Taylor was loving the slides. She even rode several of the big slides. This park has a very cool kid area. All the slides are body slides and have slide outs at the end, instead of a pool. So the water is never deeper than maybe 18 in. Cameron was a bit more apprehensive at first. She picked one little slide and just rode it over and over. One of our friends from lifegroup was there and the girls had fun playing with him. Eventually Cameron went down a couple other slides b/c Brayden did them. So I didn't take my camera (sorry), but here's a couple of pics of the park. We really had a blast!!!

Summer Fun

We went to the zoo yesterday. Unfortunately we got half way there and I realized I had forgotten the camera. Ugh!! I was frustrated with myself. We had a lot of fun and the girls really loved seeing all the animals. Then last night we found out that 7/11 was giving away free slurpee's b/c it was their 80th birthday. So the girls got to each enjoy their 1st slurpee's.


Today we went over to a friends neighborhood pool and swam. The girls really love swimming and of course so do I. Here's are a pic from swimming.

Braids & Home Depot

I braided the girls hair last night for lifegroup. It was the first time I was able to get both of them to sit long enough for me to braid it and amazingly the first time that neither one of them pulled them out at church. They even slept in them last night and woke up with pretty wavy hair.


We found out the other day that once a month The Home Depot has a kids workshop. They get to build something, and today they even had other fun things like a bounce house, face paint, and snacks. They had a lot of fun.

Happy 4th of July

We had a big day for the 4th. We went to a parade in the morning and got to see lots of cool things like fire trucks, old cars, and a mini horse. They had bounce houses and little games for the girls. We all had fun. Then we came home had baths, took naps, and cleaned the house. We had 4 other families from our lifegroup come over to our house for a cookout. The girls had fun playing with their friends. We went to Bedford to see the fireworks. We got a few pics of the girls with their friends Grayson and Brayden.

Splash Park

My online playgroup had a meetup today at a splash park. It was pretty cool, the water sprays out of the ground and other gadgets. It was free too, my favorite part.





Can the rain please stop????? It has come a downpour everyday for like the last 2 or 3 months. Our yard has been doing OK, but the past 2 days when the rain comes it isn't soaking down into the ground. So our backyard is becoming a little pond. We're ready for the rain to calm down a little. I guess at least it's not 104 degrees everyday like it was last summer, and most summers in Texas.

Newport Aquarium

We got to see lots of sharks and even pet the sharks. It was a lot of fun!

Potty Training!

We're also potty training and it seems to be going good with Taylor. I'm hoping Cameron will catch on also. Here's a cute pic of Taylor sitting n the potty.

Trip to visit Daddy-O, Debbie & Nana

A mommy deer and her baby came right up in their backyard one afternoon.

Swimming

We got the girls pool out last weekend. The girls had a blast, they love swimming.

A Hunting We Will Go!!

We went on an Easter egg hunt. It was surprisingly cool for April in Texas, so were sporting our Bengals sweatshirts (thanks Daddy-O and Debbie.)
