PICKING PEACHES AT ECKERTS!

Today, we met Ms. Calleigh at Eckert's and the girls had soo much fun together! They picked peaches together, they ate peaches, and they ran around the country store with their awesome Kid Karts! These are the best inventions ever, I think more stores need these! 


I took some wonderful pictures of the girls! I can't wait for them to get together again! 

Thanks Calleigh and Ms. Melissa for inviting us to Eckert's with you! We had a blast and can't wait to do it again! 

I LOVE TO PLAY DRESS UP.....

Lately, Rayn has really taken a liking to picking out her own clothes and dressing herself. This was the result of one day's work. The pictures are in the order that all of this happened in one days time. I will let you make your own assumptions about the captions! It was so hard not to laugh at her (I did not want to make her discouraged), so I encouraged to complete the outfit with every picture....

First time we came out the bedroom equaled backward panties, pants, and the pajamas still on as the shirt! So cute...

Second time out of the room, with her lunch box! Keep in mind, all of her shirts are hanging int he closet, so she had to go get a chair and stand on it and got it all by herself!!!

Also, she picked a button up shirt so she could be just like her daddy she told me! :)

Texting while she is waiting for me to find her car keys, so she can drive to work!

On her way out the door, with her lunch box, cell phone, and her car keys!

Backwards shoes and all!

Grandpa Mike, Grandma Lisa, and Aunt Danielle's (Danlell) Visit

Grandpa Mike, Grandma Lisa, and Aunt Danlell (as Rayn calls her) came down for a weekend visit to see our house and more importantly to visit and spoil Rayn! We had so much fun visiting with them! Rayn was a show off and thoroughly enjoyed showing them all of her tricks, good and bad! 

Grandpa Mike and Grandma Lisa spoiled Rayn while they were here. They took her shopping and bought her a new piggy bank, amongst many other things. Rayn and Grandma are putting all of the change daddy and mommy have been saving for her in there. This kept her occupied for a long time!

Grandpa was tired on Sunday morning. Rayn was supposed to bring him a Gatorade to drink and she brought it to him and said "open it." So he opened it and then she took it back and claimed it was "mine."

Grandpa was playing the fishing puzzle with her and I am pretty sure she was letting him know that he wasn't doing it right. She is pretty good at that.

Aunt Danlell and Rayn were coloring with her new coloring book and crayons that Grandpa and Grandma bought her!

Despite all of this excitement and fun that you see, she also was allowed to paint her Aunt's fingernails and toenails, and her Grandma's toenails. It was pretty exciting, yet messy! 

Lastly, she screamed and cried "I coming.." when they left. She was so sad! However, we are going to see them in a couple of weeks, so she can reunite with them then!

Monkey Joe's

Rayn's first trip to Monkey Joe's (that she was actually big enough to do anything) was for Ms. Carly's birthday party. At first, Rayn kept saying "No, play, mommy, hold me!" She fell asleep on the 10 minute car ride there, which let her be a bit crabby when we walked in. 

After the first 30 minutes of protesting, she eventually got brave enough to go down the big slide. It was so thrilling she NEVER went down it again! :) Below, you can view a few of her pictures from her first "memorable" trip to Monkey Joe's.
