aislyn's first camera

aislyn got her first camera from santa (via the help of aunt courtney... braidyn will NEVER miss it. until she sees it anyways...) i have loved watching her take pictures, its too cute. i will have to post some of her work sometime. also, my blog is still broken, i don't know why it uploads EVEN tiny pics to giNORmous on my blog, so you have to click on the pic to see the whole thing....

the spot

so i must not forget this conversation today.

me: aislyn if you talk to your brother like that again, i will spank you on the spot.
aislyn: on my spot? but mommy, it will hurt my spot. and then i will have to go to the dr. to get my spot fixed. and i won't have any clothes on.

that's all. and i leave you with a picture.

sparkle day

a friend of mine (lisa) told me once about "sparkle day" that she has with her daughter, where they just go do girl things that boys wouldn't really enjoy. i had been meaning to get aislyn's hair cut for awhile, and my hairdresser has been telling me to bring her in.. so yesterday, she and i went through the starbucks drive through to get our "coffees" and then off to the salon. starbucks has kid hot chocolates (they're so cute and tiny and NOT hot) for $1.10! once we got into the salon, i seriously felt like the biggest most ridiculous mother daughter yuppie team ever. but i had to take a pic of my three year old with starbucks. by the time she was finished she had chocolate mouth for sure. "new" rachel (that's what aislyn calls her because we already have friends named rachael, so she is the new one) cut aislyn's hair and then spiral curled it all around and it looked beautiful. she was very excited about her pretty hair. we then walked around uptown, going in stores we can't afford and pretending to shop for people. she said at bedtime, "mommy lets do that again."

my new fave

this was one from our family session with elaine. aislyn has a model face, and she was striking it so kenny felt he had to get in on the action. i told kenny that it was going on our wall, to which he replied "amy, people will think we're really like that!" so people, don't think we're really like this. whatever "this" is. ha.

sibling love

just a quick one for today :) my blogger upload thing still isn't working right, so i'm not sure how this one will actually look, but aren't they cute??
