Baby in a Basket

The girls were playing house today and this is how I found Reagan.  I'm not quite sure how she bends to fit that way!

Jocelyn's 5th Birthday Parties!

I just can't believe Jocelyn is 5 years old!  Where have the past 5 years gone??  This year Jocelyn got to have 2 birthday parties!  One party was for her friends, and the other for family.  We ended up having the parties back-to-back on Saturday, January 5th.  It made for a super-fun day with lots of celebration (and two very tired little girls who didn't take a nap)!

The first party was at Gymsport in Bridegville.  Gymsport is an athletic center that seems to focus on gymnastics.  They also have some pretty cool play areas.  All of the kids at Jocelyn's party seemed to have a REALLY fun time!

The kids are ready to get started!

There was a giant foam block pit the kids had fun jumping into.

Reagan jumping from really high up!

They also played some games on the gym floor.

Walked the balance beam

 Later that evening we invited family over to celebrate with Jocelyn ay our house.  Jocelyn requested a Little Mermaid theme for this party.  We had hoagies, pizza, cake, and ice cream.  Everyone had a fun time chatting and watching the birthday girl open all of her presents!  

ALL of the grandparents together!

We had so much fun celebrating your 5th birthday with you Jocie-Bean!

Happy 5th Birthday Jocelyn Paige!

 Dear Jocelyn,

Five years ago today we welcomed you into our lives.  It has been such a joy to watch you grow and turn into the beautiful, smart, wonderful little girl you are today. We have enjoyed all the moments from the past five years and look forward to the many, many more we will get to create.  You are such a caring little girl, a great big sister, and you are so fun to be around!  We love you so much! 

Happy 5th Birthday Jocie-bear!!!!

Love,
Mom & Dad

Christmas 2012

We had a wonderful Christmas this year despite poor Reagan having Influenza A.

Jocelyn was still thrilled that Santa actually came!

She loved and was excited about opening every present.

The girls got a HUGE doll house and a cradle and highchair for their baby dolls

Reagan was excited about presents too!

Diego!

Dora Gymnastics

So excited!

Diego books

Rescue Pack!  I guess Santa got the memo that Reagan wanted lots of Diego things this year.

Diego movies

The girls also got Wii remotes made especially for little hands.

Supergirl cape!

Soccer Girl

Pretend make-up

 The girls really make Christmas so much fun!

Christmas at Meme & Papa's!

This year we got to have Christmas twice!!  Meme and Papa weren't going to be able to make it to Pittsburgh for Christmas, so we went to Bay Village the weekend before to exchange presents and celebrate together.  We all had a really fun time!  Meme and Papa's house was so beautiful all decorated for Christmas!
