bath time in the big girl tub!





here are some pics of mali and braidyn's first bath together in the "big girl tub"!

after bath time we wrap the girls up like burritos and race them down the hallway shouting "i have a mali burrito!" and "i have a braidyn burrito!" then we lotion them up and slap on their pj's - it's a good time!

b-rad with brad





happy birthday brad! thanks for inviting us out for ribs - we had a great time and we truly value your friendship!

b-rad with brad...part two





after dinner the fun began! brad and jason made a sugar sampler platter and had to guess which kind of sugar was which - that was entertaining! and then chris put brad's bday candle in his mashed potatoes and relit it because the neglectful waitress left the lighter at the table with pyro's - that was entertaining as well. then we got to meet up with our friends, brent and tonya, who live in tennessee now - it was so good to see you guys!

all in all, it was a fabulous night!!

peas in a pod...



braidyn, cousin aislyn, and lucky liam for having two beautiful girls to hang out with!

project grayson

instead of trying to tell you the story of our little nephew grayson, you can read about him on his blog - listed to the right under family blogs - aislyn and grayson. super long story short, he has severe allergies -among other things - and the carpet in their house was only making matters worse - in fact, the allergist went ahead and told them to rip it up. amy's friend alyssa listened to the Holy Spirit and decided to raise funds for the grebe fam to rip up their carpet and put down wood floors and tile. God is amazing. He did this - and we got to help! thank you to all of you who gave - you are incredible people and it is completely appreciated. here is what you helped create...

flashback...



cheek kisses are just so much fun!

best friends...





lilly and braidyn - they do all sorts of things together - stroller walks, checkers (even though they have no idea how to play - but it looks fun!), sword fighting with sucker sticks - you know, the typical things best friends do...

cheerio animal...



i just can't get enough... and my daddy makes me eat off the floor... but he vacuums so it's okay.

gymnastics...it's about time!





we finally enrolled b in a gymnastics class with her friend lilly and she loves it! turns out that her friends daryn and andrew are in that class as well so she has so much fun every time she goes! and her teacher, miss stacey, is so great and amazing with the kids!

my first garage sale!!




i took braidyn and mali garage sailing a couple weekends ago and we had a blast! b got to take some money out of her piggy bank (she chose 6 dollars and 6 coins and we put the rest back in!) and she put it in her own sparkly purse (thank you nana! you can barely see it in the pic but she was super excited about it!) i told her we were gonna go look for treasures and then had to explain that it didn't mean gold coins in a treasure chest. well, we arrived at our first sale and definitely found some treasures! here's b paying for her goods. she bought a princess cash register, a pink shirt for school, three pairs of shoes (because we don't have enough of those...) and she bought mali a cool musical, light-up square play thing - all for $4.50!!! my girl's got skill!

cliff's amusement park






we went to cliff's with our good friends (and b's friend lilly) and they had a blast! here are some pics we got before the camera battery died... the last one is my favorite by far!!

definitely won't be riding the frog hopper again anytime soon.

mali and kaden




they're getting so big! they were taking each other's paci's away... it was cute! and they were both sitting there with one sock on and one sock off!

lobster





we had a family dinner with grammy, uncle david, and my parents the other night and we went to pappa- deaux's. b was fascinated with the lobster tank and made a new friend while standing there! then a nice lady offered to take one out of the tank for us and b got to pet it and shake it's hand!!

yes...daddy dressed me today...
