Sisters

Last week when I picked the girls pictures up, we walked thru the mall and Presley saw a sign at Studio 1-2-1. Anyways, she noticed it as a contest and asked to be entered in the contest. She really wants to win! And all she can day dream about these last couple of weeks is being a model, doctor, police girl, and having a red convertible. So anyways, I went ahead and signed her up to get her picture taken to be entered in the contest. And what Piper sees Presley do, Piper wants to do too. So, they both had their pics taken and have been entered in the "Cutest" Kids contest. They base the winner on how many votes she gets, so please if you wouldn't mind, vote once, twice, three times or more...and then ask your friend, mom, dad, sister, brother, or even your puppy to vote once, twice, three times or more (may have to use a different email address). That would really make Presley's day if she actually won.

Oh, here's the girls session webiste: http://www.holdmymemories.com/Carrell

And here is the contest link: I'll add this tonight (John and I have to decide and agree on the perfect picture) PLEASE CHECK BACK! And really feel free to share the link and ask them to vote for Presley and Juliet!

And below are some pics from the day

Squeezing in Some Fun & Exercise!

It looks like it is suppose to rain everyday until next week. Uggg!

So we headed to the park for some fun! John rode his bike with Juliet in tow (she was in her little bike trailer eatin' snacks and getting some fresh air). And Presley rode her bike while I walked/jogged along side with Maggie Belle. We did about 2 miles and after our ride we let the girls play in the playground. It was a perfect night!

Maggie says, let me out and let's get running!

Juliet is getting settled in.

Here we go!

I absolutely love this park! It's my favorite. It has so many trees, a creek, hiking trails, biking trails, field for kite flying or throwing balls, playground for big kids and one for little kids, and a picnic area. LOVE IT!

I love this park!

Presley is in the lead! She was ringing her bell at John telling him that she was passing and getting in front of him. I hate that this picture is blurry!

Taking a break half way thru & taking in the beautiful scenery.

I started to get a little nervous at the playground. The little girl that Presley started playing with had a runny nose. John and I just looked at each other and told Presley she shouldn't play with sick kids. Does that sound bad? I am just scared of this swine flu! You never know, right? I sanitized the girls as soon as we got to the car and then thoroughly washed them when we got home.

This swine flu is kinda scary... to me. Especially since there is a school out here that I saw on the news that was closed till next week. Right in my backyard. John thinks people are freaking out way to much...

Before heading to the park, we went out to check on our garden. The girls were so happy to see what they planted was actually growing. Pretty neat!

Piper's peas. I am sure they will be yummy!

Presley's flowers are sprouting! She was in awww of that.

And the flowers from Juliet's birthday party are still looking gorgeous!

Strike a Pose......

Instead of napping, Presley lays in her bad or does yogo on her bedroom floor in the dark. I walked in on her doing that yesterday afternoon. I watched her for a while and when she was done, I told her quietly that now it was time for a nap. She's so silly.

Anyways, Presley day dreams about so many things. She is already planning what kind of car she is going to buy with her money. And in her mind she is teaching herself to drive already. She wants a convertible red car. And she day dreams about being a doctor...she's torn between a people doctor or an animal doctor. All she knows is that she wants rainbow colored hair when she get to be a doctor. And she daydreams that when she is done being a doctor, she wants to be a police girl. And her latest thing that she has been dreaming about is becoming a model. So the pics below are from her striking a pose for me. And little Juliet is following in her footsteps.

Oh and this is Juliet getting into John's hair stuff. She had it all in her hair, on her neck, chin, arms, counter, and of course all over her hands.

And Sunday we went to the zoo. Here are some pics from our fun day.

Ethan, Zenon, Juliet, Presley, Ryley, and Aiden

The Stroller Patrol

Those birds loved John's head!

I am still not sure who two of the females are suppose to be...

Presley found her inner goofball

The kids had a great day, but left so upset because they didn't get to ride in the nest in the carousel.
