Miss Piggy Can Do It!!!

Miss Piggy has been so excited to get her training wheels off. Today we took them off and she just took off! She starts and stops on her own as if she's been doing it her whole life!

Way to go, Miss Piggy!

Videos of The Kids at Swim Lessons

Kermit and Miss Piggy have really done well with their swimming lessons this summer. They still have Monday -Thursday next week and I'm sure they'll learn even more! The first time they did swim lessons we wondered if they'd ever pick it up. 2 years later we're trying again and the age difference is HUGE! They are truly swimming now! I know the videos are blurry, but that's okay! These are mainly for Grandmas, Grandpas, Aunts and Uncles! The first is of Kermit swimming... he's the kid not staying with the group, to the left! The one where they are floating, the teacher is counting while her arms are there, they aren't touching the kids, so they are doing it by themselves. Kermit made it 7 seconds that time (usually he goes longer) and Miss Piggy made it 18 seconds!

Baby Girl, The Walking Chocolate Thief!

Baby Girl took off walking on Friday, at 13 months old! Kermit and Miss Piggy both walked at 16 months, so we were surprised she rushed to it so quickly. She's so much fun!!!

Today at church they gave all the men a Mr. Goodbar. During our Sunday School one of the men had left his bar behind his chair, Baby Girl found it and tried to steal it from him. Then another guy passed his candy bar around and shared with Baby Girl. There was one piece left and she darted over to it, stealing this guy's last piece of chocolate.

The next hour Master Chief takes her with him to Priesthood but I couldn't find Master Chief so I sent her with a friend. When Master Chief got to her, she was scarfing down this friends candy bar! The little stinker stole 2 men's candy bars today!

We got home from church and she hit her dad up for his candy bar. And of course he shared! She put her 8 little teeth to work on that chocolate and had some fun!

Happy Fathers Day to Master Chief and to our fathers! You 3 men are the greatest men in our lives!

Our Vacation in Picture... Many Pictures!

We traveled to Mama's house for our vacation this year. Her little brother was graduating from High School, receiving his Eagle award and his Duty to God. We drove long enough that we were able to get a hotel each way and swim, which of course made the kids excited!

On our first day there, we took the plunge and got both of the girls' ears pierced!!! They both did really good and we are happy with the outcome! Miss Piggy also got her hair cut. This pic also shows a lovely rash that came with us due to immunizations on Baby Girl!We visited a local zoo. It is hands down the best zoo we've ever been to. Gram-Gram took them on the carousel! The pics of Kermit and Miss Piggy didn't turn out.The kids got to pet a baby wallaby.The kids rode in style... convertible style!We attended the Children's Museum and everyone had a ball! Baby Girl had her own huge play area and loved every minute of it!Kermit had some fun assembling a tractor with his uncle made out of recycled goods.The kids had an art studio with aprons and all!There was a fun dance studio with costumes.A bubble lab where they put on scientist clothing and went to work.There was a grocery story where you could either buy food or be a cashier along with a restaurant they got to cook at!A vet clinic where some poor kitty cat of Mama's had a bazillion shots!It was so much fun!!! We of course went skydiving as well... but you've already seen those awesome pics and my video!!! Mama wants to go again!
