Alaina turns 2!


The OFFICIAL Birthday!!!
Alaina's birthday present from Mommy, Daddy and Alyssa. Alyssa was just as excited to play with as Alaina was. Alaina was tolerant for a minute or 2, but then Lyss started working her nerves a bit... LOL

CHEESE!! Her birthday hair! 2 pony tails for a 2 year old!

She's annoyed with all the pictures already...


She was sooo excited for her cake and didn't quite understand the flames on the cake. When she/we blew them out she flinched from the smoke-- it scared the crap out of her!! :)



Best cake EVER!
6/10/10-- 2 year check up!
Alaina is in the 50th percentile for weight at 26 lbs, and in the 90th percentile for height at 35". She's tall!!! :) Just like her Daddy!!
Alaina was calm and cool through her entire appt., and didn't even flinch when she got a double whammy shot in each leg.
She let the doctor listen to her heart and her stomach, opened her mouth to let the doc look at her teeth, tongue and throat... let her look in her ears and other areas.. :) She was smiley and cute-- NO TALKING though!! Doctor said she was very mature for her age. It was a great appt.
Alyssa had her 9 month Doctor appt. on 6/4/10. She is in the 50th percentile for height and weight. She is 27" and weighs just over 18 lbs. She also was very cooperative...cute and smiley...babbled a lot. She got a shot and didn't even flinch..no crying, screaming, or flailing.
Both girls had excellent appts and are happy, healthy, beautiful girls!




Alaina turns 2!


The Birthday Party At Grandmom's and Poppy's
6/7/10
Alaina likes to play on the first step of the pool, and poor water from glass to glass to glass to glass to glass to glass...you get the picture. Her cousin, who is also 2, likes to play with the cups in the pool as well. Unfortunately for the cousin, Alaina has clearly claimed ALL the cups today!!!



The birthday cake! Or, cupcakes! Cute! And Alaina loved them, and the Minnie Mouse!




Yes, this is pure and total love! MMMMM!





More yummmm!



Oh wow! "It's Minnie!"







"I'm 2!"

A Day In The Life of a Sands Sister....

An attempt at Wiffle Ball!

Alaina "planting" or unplanting Mommy's flowers. It's funny--> she is attacking the flower that Alyssa gave me for Mother's Day. Hmmm.....



The ducks go first.







Smiley!





She's about to do something she knows she isn't supposed to.
I wonder what it might be....



More smiles! She's holding the ball that both Daddy
and Alaina want to play with... I wonder if she is doing
this on purpose...hmmm....









Still hoarding that ball.
