I have had numerous people say that Bethany looks more like Brent. And in some ways she does. Like I always say, they look like themselves...a mixture of both of us, our parents, our grandparents, etc...

But I wanted to share these pictures. Here's a recent shot of Bethany...


And here's a couple of me (obviously a little older)...

Dallas Trip Pictures

Raegan vegging out watching a movie (on the couch I wound up sleeping on two nights! Ugh!)

Bethany trying to climb up my leg while I was trying to take a picture...

Eating at "On the Border" Mexican Grill! SOOOOoo good. I fell in love with the Big Burrito. Don't remember exactly what it's called, but yummy! Too bad, I looked them up on the internet and the closest locations are College Station and Cypress. :(
We stopped by Sports Authority to look for something and I noticed this too cute bike. No, we didn't buy it, but maybe we'll add it to her wishlist. Too cute, even has a seat for her doll!
Raegan loved the park we went to. It was nice...we were the only ones there and it was partially shaded.



Swimming at the hotel. Daddy was suppose to get a picture of me with the girls, too. But we forgot. So once again, I'm in none of the pictures! LOL Oh, well...maybe next time!

More of Bethany Falling asleep here and there....well....in the pool!



She was "talking" and chewing on a little toy, and all of the sudden we looked back and she was asleep! Silly girl!

Summer Fun & More

Raegan's Bean Plant from VBS. We had to transplant it to a bigger pot!



More Fun in the Pool!


First time to use the sprinkler this summer! At first Raegan was like, "Oooh, this is cool!"



Then the wind blew and the water hit her and well...she wasn't sure if she liked that or not!


Raegan's 1st Kool-Aid Mustache


I always put Bethany in the high chair for her teething biscuit--SO messy!


Finally got a picture of Bethany standing up on her own. Yesterday she took off. She was pulling up to stand like every time I turned around!

Some of the places Bethany falls asleep!



in the jumper...
in the high chair, while I'm feeding her! LOL

I just wanted to highly recommend this performance to be included in your 4th of July festivities. I went to this a few years back, actually as part of a class to write a review on it and enjoyed it so much! I wanted to take Raegan last year, but it didn't work out. So I hope to take her this year.

Well, I took Raegan to see "Up" at the movie theater yesterday. My mom and step-dad came too. She did ok, Bethany on the other hand didn't make it but 10-15 minutes! LOL So, I had to take her out and didn't see most of the movie. I wanted to get some pictures of Raegan sitting in the theater chair munching on her popcorn, but that didn't happen. Oh well. When I asked her how she liked it, she said it was scary and it was dark. LOL But mom said when the movie ended, she asked, "Where's the mote control?"

So next time I'll just have to have someone watch Bethany until she gets a little older! LOL
