More fun in Houston

Celebrating birthday's & the new place.

Fun in Houston

Alena had a blast with her cousins at an in door play gym. Samaya hung out with me and watched.

Samaya Eats Solids for the 1st Time

Samaya finally got to taste rice cereal and she ate the entire bowl. Alena never did that. I also took Samaya to my mom's house to take pictures in a very old baby blessing dress that my dad wore when he was a tiny baby.

The New Place

We are doing so much traveling back and forth from Houston (3 times this month) that we decided to get a little condo there. It is super cute and in a great neighborhood. We closed on Friday, Jan. 8th 2010. Here are some pics from the new place.

The Butterfly Museum

We went to Houston to do a walk through on the condo so we stayed with Shahana in her new place. We went to the Butterfly museum there.

Potty Training & the other cute kid

So Alena is full on potty training. She has the potty and the diapers are off. We rolled up the carpet down stairs and tried no diaper for a few days...wow, it was messy. Now she is wearing her underpants and going in the potty (we take it with us into the living room or kitchen so that she sees it. She does about 50/50 right now - 50% in the potty and 50% messes. Samaya is just a sweet heart and a cute girl. She is full of smiles and doesn't demand hardly anything. She really likes to lounge right now.

After Christmas

We went to Southpark Meadows and watched the light and music show there with Trent and Micah. Alena had a blast dancing to the music and playing ball with a sweet girl she made friends with there. It was super cold! Samaya just hung out with daddy.

Christmas 2009

Alena was excited to see presents on Christmas Day. Santa ate the cookies we left for him and I made our traditional coffee cake for Jesus birthday with a candle on top. We opened our presents and then Alena opened her gifts and then Samaya opened hers. Alena got a Barbie Hot wheels a kitchen with a shopping cart and a slide along with lots of books and puzzles and stocking stuff. Samaya got a play mat, shoes a toy and stuffed animals in her stocking. We went to my parents house around 4 and did Christmas there where the girls were spoiled by both my sisters and her grandparents. It was a fun day.
