23 months!

Gianna is 23 months...less than a month til she is 2!! Her big question every day is if her drink is old or fresh so she knows if it is safe to drink. The other day Jadyn told me I was too old to drive and G said "Mommy is not old! She is fresh". :) She is a funny girl. She amazes us with all the things she knows and remembers. She has a great memory...another thing she gets from her daddy. She can count to 14 and knows her colors (pink and orange are her favs). We are excited she is such a cool kid, but it is hard to watch our baby get so big!!

4th of July!

Having some sugar to stay awake past 9! :)

Still working on that lollipop waiting for the fireworks....

Jadyn and the oh so lovely visor and sunglasses she decorated at Pioneer Park in Prescott. It was a great place for the kids to be all day until the firework show.

Gianna playing with the visor...she wanted no part in looking dorky...haha

David took this one...I think she was done with the photo taking....

See how nice she was smiling for me?? lol

My girls at a lake we stopped at...can't remember the name. :)

My guys posing at the lake we stopped at for just a few minutes. Next time we will rent the boat and get a better view!

Grandpa and Jady soaking up the pretty views. Hope everyone had a great 4th of July!!

The Big Recital

Jadyn had 2 big recitals yesterday...one show at 1 and another at 6 that lasted until after 9pm. They did a ballet dance to the Oriental Waltz. So cute! Crazy day, but she had a great time and did really well. I was so proud how well she handled being held hostage from 12pm to so late waiting for her time to go on with just a quick break in between to pick up G and Daddy. Gianna was a trouper too getting dragged around and helping sis get ready, then watching the very late and long show.
Here are a couple from before her rehearsal night Friday...more photos later if I ever get time to look at them. :)

Happy Father's Day!

I can't even tell you how much David adores his girls, but I probably do not have to since it is pretty obvious :) They are lucky girls to have such a great Daddy that would do anything for them (and me)!

Happy Father's Day!! xoxo

22 months!!

Looking for her belly button

Her lastest smile for the camera

One of her favorite sheep...she loves sheep!

The pose she always insists on...

and of course pointing out all her "boo-boos" on her feet :)

At 22 months Gianna makes us forget she is under 2 daily, is independent, loves to eat, loves to dance and must do so before bed or she can't sleep, loves animals, has a huge heart, loves her family (especially her cool big sis), loves to make us all laugh, and makes us so thankful we have her in our lives!

San Diego

Here are a few of the hundreds of photos from San Diego. I am way behind on going through our own photos of course. Getting a picture of these two together is still not happening, but individually they are little show-offs :)

The beach

Gianna officially loves the beach...she had it everywhere and was loving every second :) Took awhile to get her clean in the shower, but we are relieved she is another little beach bum.

So much fun making castles....more to post when we get home. We decided to stay a few more days. :)
