Oklahoma weather, again!

What a couple of weather weeks it has turned out to be. We had one amazing hail storm around here in case you haven't heard! It truly was unbelievable......here is some of the video we took...I know it is long, but we didn't tape the entire storm and I edited out parts of the video!!! My favorite part is how at first we are taping and we think that our cars are getting it bad and we haven't seen a portion of what is about to happen!

All in all, we are doing fine. Pretty sure we have roof damage, the front of our house the siding is toast, gutters toast and 4 windows. Our cars are not much better Chris' estimate from the adjuster was $7800 and mine was $4800, but we have already been told from a body shop that Chris car cannot be fixed for that amount!!! However, the earliest appointment they have for Chris' car is Aug 9th!!!!! What a mess! The adjuster is coming out to our house next week! We will see what they say! Thankful for insurance at this point, but hating deductibles! Hopefully we are done with bad weather, and really I am not complaining, because at least our home is standing and we are all safe and fine!

What a week!

Daisy had her second ear infection this week, so we have been battling that and to top it off I pulled a muscle in my leg and was unable to walk for 24 hours! Chris had his hands full. Thankfully Grammy and Grandpa are in town and they were able to help with Daisy! And both Daisy and I are doing better now! Here are some pictures to catch you up!


Mother's Day!
I had a wonderful mother's day. Daisy sent me some tulips at work on Friday and then Chris gave me a "mommy's day out" next weekend! It is a surprise and I couldn't be more excited! That was really thoughtful!

and our Mother's day shoot went a little like this:

crying daisy
wont look at the camera daisy
talking daisy
showing daddy what we found. oh well, at least we are both in the picture!

Randomness:
Just some catching up to do. Before we left for Mexico Chris was able to go to the first ever OKC Thunder playoff game held in OKC! He had such a good time and I can say I was a little jealous! Here is the view from his seat! We were so proud of our Thunder!
This is Daisy and her new friend Gracie. These girls have really hit it off! They Love to play together!

Beckett's birthday party!
We had such a fun time last weekend at another neighborhood birthday party. It was beautiful outside and they cooked out. There was so much for the kids to do, and it was fun for the parents to all get to meet and talk! We are blessed with such a fun neighborhood!

Daisy on the BIKE! She cannot wait to get one of her own!

The adorable kids table. Birthday boy at the head and Gracie and Daisy at the end!
She loves this power wheel, although she doesn't know how to steer!!! Constantly running into things or running over flowers!
Bouncing with Daddy!
SLIDE!
Cake! This was hilarious....exactly how many kids do you think put their fingers in that cake before the candles went out???


Vacation pictures!
I know I already said this but we had the most wonderful time. Everyone has been asking for more pics so here they are!

First let me start off with a picture of the 'loot' daisy came home with from the grandparents! This is just the EXTRA stuff, things she did not leave OKC with!!!! (one pile of clothes and most of the shoes are being borrowed from her cousin lilly! but still!!!!) So you can say she was well taken care of while we were gone!Okay back to mexico!

The view from our balcony!

This is where I spent most of my time! Reading and relaxing on the beach! (and yes that is the twilight series sitting beside me perfect beach reading!)
Chris eating some interesting/disgusting soup! Who eats this kind of stuff?
We swam with the dolphins!!!! This was my favorite day! The dolphins were at a water park, so we got to enjoy some water slides and then swim with the dolphins. Of course camera's are not allowed so we only have one picture but if you ever get the chance to do this SO WORTH IT!
Bicycle tour to the ruins.....



We had such a great time and would recommend a vacation without kids to everyone!!! It was so nice to have my hubby all to myself! When can we go back?

Spring

Warning PICTURE OVERLOAD! Sorry about this, just skim if necessary! We can't help it that our little girl is so precious! We have had two weekends in a row with daddy and we have had a blast. Let me catch you up on what has been going on. First let me start with another bathtub picture. This one is similar to the one taken when Daisy was 10 months old! I can't believe how much she has grown over the past 9 months! ( I tried to get these two side by side but I couldn't figure it out!)



















Daisy and baby Sara....she talks about her all the time! (My good friend from work, Teresita's baby!) She LOVES baby sara!
Just sporting her new hat. I love how she looks so grown up in the picture.So this picture cracks me up. Daisy is obsessed with swings. One day it was raining and she kept asking to swing outside. I could not get her to understand that it was raining so I ended up bringing in her swing out of the garage and she was able to swing! Look how happy she is! Only mistake is that she asked to do this a lot now!
Spring day outside!
Mommy and Daisy shot (obviously around Easter time?)
Daisy's first OU hat! I think she looks adorable, Chris thinks she looks "homely"??? She wont keep it on for long, but I am hoping this will help to keep her from getting sunburned this summer!
Daisy has never used a paci, but she now loves to play with them with her babies. We kinda helped her 'pose' for this picture simply because Uncle steven has a very similar picture of when he was a boy, only that one wasn't posed!
Daisy and I worked on a special project for her teacher Ms. Amber one day. Here is one of the many cute shots I was able to catch!
Grandma and Papa sent Daisy a bunny rabbit for Easter. She LOVES to slide with bunny! How funny is she!

Last weekend was birthday party weekend. Daisy had 2 in one day. The first was for a girl in our neighborhood. It was at a gymnasium. They basically let the kids run around and do whatever they wanted! They (including the biggest kid, Chris) had so much fun! Here is daddy and daisy in the pit!
The kids attempting at organizing the parachute! Hilarious, considering the oldest child there was 3!
This is Daisy and her new BFF Gracie. We are so excited and blessed to have wonderful new neighbors and Daisy and Gracie have really hit it off. They talk about eachother everyday, and luckily get to play together often! We LOVE our neighborhood and are so thankful for new friends! This is the best picture I got of the two of them, they were both so busy, it was hard to get them to stay in one place together for a photo!
Evan celebrated his birthday that day also! Look at the amazing cake Dara made!
The birthday boy
Daisy showing everyone that she's got skills!
Jackson explaining to Daisy about the lawn mower!
I love this picture of Daisy and I. It seems like we don't get many pictures together!
As you can see we have been very busy, but having so much fun. I feel so much better now that the weather has started to warm up! Plus, the blessing of new neighbors! I feel ready for Chris to start next year and ready for us to adjust to his new schedule! (but it helps that we have vacation coming up!)
