Our Family Is Growing...


At the beginning of this month, Tony and I found out that we are pregnant! We had our first appointment today at 8 weeks and 2 days but by the time we left we were demoted to 7 weeks! That's bad news, but luckily the rest was all good news! We got to see the little heart-beat! So amazing! Everything looked healthy and good so we are happy! I'm so excited for Ayla to have a sibling!!! She will love it I know! What a great big sis she will be! She already points to my tummy and says "baby" and kisses it and gives it loves!

Happy Father's Day!!!

There's no question about it, Dellie loves her daddy!!! She can't wait for him to get home from work. She misses him when he's not here. She walks right along side of him. She loves to give him kisses. Whatever he's doing she's right there with him doing it too. She just adores him! She gets so excited to see him! And why wouldn't she love him so much? He is a wonderful dad! He takes such good care of her. He always has something fun for her to do. He loves her so much and she knows it! He loves being a daddy and it's obvious to everyone!


(wantin' to be like daddy, hat and all) Tony really is an amazing dad! Everything he does is centered around his family! I love watching these two interact because they love each other so much! There's nothing Tony wouldn't do for Dellie, changing diapers, sharing his food, laying by her while she falls asleep, playing at the park with her, taking her for walks, helping her calm down when she's upset, teasing her, chasing her around the house, helping her go potty, helping her get dressed, ... all the normal daddy stuff but done with so much love she can't help but love him just as much!
I sure am lucky to have married a man five years ago that would turn out to be such a loving dad! I knew that going into it but I didn't have any idea how much! We love you Tony! Have a wonderful day!

Watering the Flowers


Dellie likes to water the flowers and it's so cute cause she bounces it just like mommy does!

Leave It To Dad!!!






We were playing at a park on Memorial Day with my family when next thing we noticed was Dellie's little body flying down this big twisty slide all by herself! I let her go down the little slides by herself but I would have never let her go down the big twirly slide by herself especially with no one there to catch her! But I guess that's why we have dads to let us try things mom would never let us do! She was fine and she did it several more times!

My Shadow

I was laying on the ground to take a picture and Dellie came right over and stuck her head right next to mine. So I turned the camera on us. I love her little expression of "what are we looking at? I'm going to figure it out."

Kitty Sitting





This was so fun for Dellie! We were checking on Jon's cat Turbo while he was out of town. As soon as we walked in the house and saw Turbo, Ayz got right down on her tummy to be at his level. Then she followed him around the house crawling. She was very sweet and soft with him. Turbo didn't know what to think at first, but the second day we went he came right up to her purring and rubbing up against her, so they were buddies! This last picture is Dellie attempting to give Turbo a kiss!

We're Back!

We left on Thursday for Las Vegas. Togo's parents have a condo out there and they invited us to come stay with them. It was a lot of fun! The condo was so beautiful and fancy. It had two huge swimming pools so we did a lot of swimming. Julz brought these floaties for her kids and we were so glad she let Ayz borrow them. They were the best, I never would have thought that she was old enough to use them (technically they say you shouldn't use them until they are 3 I think, but we stayed right by Ayz the whole time). She was such a little fishy! She couldn't get enough of the water. she would swim around kicking her feet and all! It was so cute!
I had never been to Las Vegas, we drove straight through two years ago, but I've never actually been there. It was really cool! We went to Circus Circus and Togo went on the rollercoater, and I attempted to go on a 5 year olds version of a Fairis Wheel but was freaking out so bad (REALLY SO BAD) that they stopped the ride half way up, reversed it and let me off! How embarassing right? Well, I tried! Incidently Ayz and Togo bravely finished the ride so that was her first ride ever! Good for her I'm very proud! We also went to the M&M factory which was really fun! I loved all the colors and things there. We had dinner one night at the Terribles buffet and it was DELICIOUS. One night we had dinner at something di Beppos (can't think of the name... we have two of them here but I've never eaten there before), it was delicious too, I was very impressed! We went through the MGM Grand which was amazing I really liked that one. All of that and didn't even drop a quarter in a slot... oh well, I guess I'll make my million the hard way! It really was a lot of fun! We got a little tan, it was hot, but not unbareable at all, infact it was really just perfect weather! Ayz was great the whole time! She was SO happy to spend time with her cousins! She really loves them so much! She even learned to say Ty's name! She had such a blast with them. She was perfect and happy on the ride both ways! I couldn't ask for better! I have more pictures, I'll have to post them soon.
