Day 2

These girls love to coordinate :)

My beautiful 3.5 year old.

Best buds

Today we took the girls to Build a Bear which they totally loved. Alayah picked out a dachshund  puppy and named it Hannah.

Then we went to another friends house and enjoyed a yummy meal and Alayah took a short 2 minute dip in the pool lol.

Then we came back home and the girls hung out watching movies while I lay on the couch still sick. Alayah also hogged the container of tomatoes and ate almost all of them by herself.

We finally made it to Albuquerque around noon today and we met up with our besties. I still am not feeling very well. :( On a happier note the girls were so excited to see each other and hit it off right away like they haven't been apart for several months. 

The girls had a lot of fun playing with glow sticks as well. Alayah really got into it lol

Heading to NM

This is how she first felt about the hotel lol

and this is the after

As soon as work was over today, we headed to Albuquerque for our annual visit with our besties and also to visit Alayah's half siblings. It is only an 8 hour drive but close to halfway through I got a huge headache and just overall did not feel well so I stopped in Flagstaff and found us a hotel to stay in. Alayah was not too excited about it. She didn't understand what the hotel was for and wanted to leave asap. Luckily, she calmed down and  I got some much needed rest.

Pool Day

We hung out today around the house and enjoyed a nice relaxing time in the pool.

Alayah is not too fond of the water so she prefers to float around on a raft the whole time.

She also enjoys all the attention from her Mommy and Grandma

Wordless Wednesday

Movie Date

This girl cracks me up. I love her sense of style :)

I took her to see the Winne the Pooh movie today.

It was pretty cute, but while taking these pictures before we left, I didn't realize she had walked into a cactus and had the stickers stuck in her knee. She didn't complain until the movie was almost over and then it was down hill from there. She was not having anything to do with me taking them out. It took my mom and me to hold her down to try and get them all out. My poor girl. Now she avoids the cactus in the yard like its the plague lol.

Happy 4th of July

Alayah was not feeling her dress. She screamed and cried almost the entire time it was on. Luckily, I talked her into smiling for just a few pictures and then I told her she could take it off. So much for dresses I guess.

We didn't really do much today. Just hung around the house and then ventured out to watch the fireworks around 9.

This was our first July 4th here in Vegas so it was really cool to be driving and see fireworks going off all over the city. In Wyoming personal fireworks are illegal so this was a first for even me to see so many people setting off their own. I can't wait to see what next year will bring.

On the way to the fireworks Alayah thought they were awesome seeing them going off all around her on the way there. She said they were her favorite. It wasn't until the actual show started that she freaked out and decided she didn't like them. She sat in the car with her ears covered the whole time and kept saying lets get outta here mom. Maybe next year she will like them lol

This years do'

I love her sassy posing she has been doing lately. I bought her this outfit and I can't get over the fact that they are 4T's and the shorts were snug...where did my tiny baby go.

I tried to come up with a new patriotic style for this year but halfway through I just lost interest. Today was her 4th of July celebration at school so I will probably end up taking this style out this weekend she she can rock an afro on Monday since it's national Afro day.

 I hope she won't be scared of the fireworks this year :)
