"I will take care of Ben"

This morning I told Bailey that I was going to take Ben upstairs and get ready. Bailey said, "I can take care of Ben in my room Mommy." So I left Ben playing with some toys in Bailey's room and went to get ready. I could hear them on the monitor upstairs and she was talking very sweet to him. I came to check on them about 5 minutes later and this is what I saw when I walked into Bailey's room. Daddy's going to love this one!:)

California Vacation Pics!

We had a great time in California! Bailey had a great time at Disneyland and the Beach. I think John had just as much fun taking Bailey to all of his favorite places that he enjoyed as a kid. We got to visit with some of John's friends from high school and eat at our favorite place, In-N-Out Burgers. I always enjoy going to California when we go back but I am always glad to get back to our pace of life!

Ben Update

Ben did well at his appt. The Dr. feels that Ben is having some small seizures . We will do some more tests in the up coming weeks. Please continue to pray for him and for wisdom for John and I as we decide what is the best treatment for Ben.

Prayer for Ben

We took Ben to the Dr. due to him having an odd twitch that he does with his head along with rolling his eyes back at the same time. The Dr. was concerned that he might be having small seizures and is referring us to a Pediatric Neurologist in Tulsa. We go tomorrow at 11:30. Please pray that Ben does well during the test and that we get some answers at the appt. We will keep you posted. Thanks in advance for your prayers!

Tagged!!

I have been Tagged by Jennifer. I will share 5 fun or weird facts about myself:)

1. I like for my house to stay clean, mainly my kitchen. I hate for things to sit on my counters. I keep everything put up like the toaster, coffee maker etc... It makes more work for me to drag it out and put it back but that is how I like it.

2. I like to make up songs in the car on road trips. This makes John laugh alot. Now Bailey is starting to do it too.

3. My favorite in-town and out-of-town restaurant is Chili's and I always order the same thing!

4. I have my own way of spelling things due to my dyslexia.

5. I am very competitive. I like to find games that I can beat John at. If I beat him one time I never let him forget it:) The last thing I beat him at was bowling on the WII!

Daddy Daughter Dance

John and Bailey went to their first Daddy Daughter Dance tonight! Bailey was so excited all day. She would say that her and Daddy were going to a dance party! By 5:00 she could not stand it anymore and we HAD to put on her dress so she could practice dancing in the living room. Several of the Dad's from camp took their daughters and all of the Moms went out to eat with our boys. After dinner we went by the dance and peeked in the windows to watch. It was very fun! They had a real DJ and lights! We saw them do the macarana:) At the end of the dance they gave all of the girls a rose. I don't know who had more fun..Dad at the dance or Mom getting Bailey all dressed up and watching through the window:)

Here are Daddy and Bailey all dressed for their special night. Bailey loved her flowers Daddy got her to wear on her wrist.

Bailey dancing with her friend Lauren. Our good friend Scott with his daughter Kate.

All Danced Out!!

Gymnastics

Bailey has been taking gymnastics since she was one. She loves going and learning new things. She does well because she will try anything and not scared of anything! We started going when we lived in Tulsa and then when we moved to the ranch one of my good friends owns her own gym in town. We stated out doing a mommy & me class and now she goes out on the floor by herself. I really like to sit and watch beacuse the mommy & me class was more of a work-out
for mommy:)These are some pictures from her class today. On the bars she is to touch her toes to the bar and then pull her feet through. She loves to swing on the bars! She is also very good at walking on the balance beam. She often tries to do this on the back of our couch.

One of Bailey's favortie things about gymnastics is getting her TWO stamps at the end of class. She likes to get them on her feet or hands. This is a picture of her waiting with a friend from the ranch to get their stamps!
