Our Days in OK…

Ivy and Big Bill

Mimi feeding Phoebe

Ivy LOVED bowling with Aunt Lindsey’s Wii.

Aunt Lindsey brought home some medical equipment, and Ivy had a blast!

Uncle Matt showed Ivy how to use the blood pressure cuff.

Ivy loved the slide at Bounce U.

Big Bill with both of his granddaughters.

Mimi and Phoebe

Ivy showed Mimi how to build a gunny-gun.  I am not quite sure who taught Ivy how to build one.

Uncle Matt and Aunt Lindsey with Phoebe.  She chews on everything!  She cut her first tooth while we were in KC.

Pre-Thanksgiving

Ivy had such a great time with her aunts and uncles!  Uncle Justin and Uncle Jake entertained for hours, while we were in KC.

Phoebe met Uncle Jake, and she and Aunt Audrey bonded during the week.

Ivy played with a leftover balloon from a church activity for TWO days.

We hung out with the Fillinghams and had such a great time, especially when all four of the kids took a nap.

Pappy and Phoebe

As Ivy approached the fish tank, she said, “look a whale!”  It was a catfish, but it was a VERY big catfish.

Ivy has a new fascination with checkers.  We played at home, Bass Pro, and Cracker Barrel twice!

Phoebe, not so fascinated with the board game.

Phoebe’s Dedication

100_7807

As we were driving to church on Sunday, Ivy started asking me why we were dedicating Phoebe.  So, I explained that Mommy and Daddy stand before the church and make a promise to God that we will love our baby and teach her about God’s love.  Ivy said, “what about big sister!”

So, when we got home I showed her pictures of her dedication and got out her dress.  I asked her if God loves her, and she looked at me like I was silly and said, “yes!”

Super Reader Tom Turkey

Ivy had to disguise Tom Turkey for her preschool class, and of course, she wanted to dress him as a Super Reader.  (It’s a pbs show)

Friday night I was looking for a pen in the pen box, and Ivy found an old school pencil.  She started poking holes in it.  Afterward, she found a flashlight and turned out the lights.  Ivy  made her own light saber.  Brilliant!

So much fun!
