Baby Shower Fun!

A few weeks ago we threw Justin and Lourdes a baby shower for sweet little Ty that will be here soon!  We had the shower at the Inn at the Ballpark and I think everything turned out really nice.  It was a sports themed shower since that is what his nursery will be like.  The food was great, and Brandy planned lots of fun sports themed games for us to play.  The cake was so pretty too!  And, best of all Justin and Lourdes got some great gifts to get started with their new precious baby!
 
 
Beautiful cake!

The boys playing a game where they had to drink beer from a bottle.  This was quite hilarious!
 


We also had a diaper changing relay.
 
We had an adorable motorcycle diaper cake made for the shower and the girls
made Ty the precious little basketball teddy bear at Build A Bear.
 
 
This had to be the funniest thing ever!  Lourdes had to feed Justin baby food after being spun around and blind folded.  We could not stop laughing.  They actually did a good job, until the end when Lourdes got the food in Justin's ear. :)
 
They were both such good sports for all the games, and now time for the presents!  Yay for the baby bouncer!
 
And a new car seat, woo-hoo!  Now little Ty is all set!
 
Last friday night Jayda went to a pajama party and Sydney was very upset that she couldn't go to.  So, I told her that we would do something fun while Jayda was at the party.  They were having a Pretty in Pink party at the Sugar Land Townsquare to raise money and awareness for breast cancer.  I heard there would be a pink fire truck there and lots of pink lights so Sydney said that sounded fun.  Plus, we would meet daddy for dinner down there too!  She was so excited to see the pink fire truck and even got to get on it.  We had lots of fun with just one kiddo for the evening! :)

She even got to get on to the deck up above!

And, I got to sign the truck.  Yay Mom!
 
Later that night the whole townsquare was lit up pink.  It was so pretty, and inspiring!

Rodeo and Fair Fun!

So, we have lots and lots of cute pics of the girls with Daisy.  I just have to share a few!
 
 
Sydney and Daisy on the way to pick Jayda up from school!
 

Jayda loves to play with Daisy!

Fun times with her baby!
 

Such a sweet smile!
 
Sydney loves, loves, loves to ride her tricycle all the time!  Everytime we get home she pulls it
out of the garage and asks if she can ride it.  She is really good at riding it now too!
 
 
The girls love to take Daisy to the park and play with her.
 
Sweet puppy waiting for the girls at the park.
 


She likes to hang out under the swings.
Last friday we went with some sweet friends to the Ft. Bend County rodeo.  There was a cute petting zoo, pony rides, and a fun carnival.  The girls had a great time, and loved the rides the most.
My little cowgirl all ready for the rodeo!

The girls were ready for a pony ride!

Sydney was super excited to ride on the horsey!
 
 
Jayda loved it too!
 

Going on a little 4 wheeler ride!
 

Sweet sisters going on a ride together!

The fun slide was definitely Jayda's favorite ride at the rodeo!  She did it several times!

The girls and their sweet friends Madden and Miles all got to do the teacup ride together.  Woo-hoo!
 Last weekend we headed to Huntsville to celebrate my mom's birthday.  We had a nice dinner at home on saturday night and enjoyed a yummy birthday cheesecake on sunday!  We also visited the Fair on the Square while we were there.  It was a fun weekend.  Happy Birthday Oma!
 

Gotta do the sand art at the fair!



Jayda couldn't wait to get her face painted!



Sydney was so excited to get her face painted.
 
 
Daisy and Sydney were resting together yesterday while Mommy got the house picked up.  So sweet!
 
Jayda became a Daisy girl scout yesterday.  She was so excited and it was such a sweet afternoon with her troop!

Meet Miss Daisy!

Last saturday we made a new addition to the Paschal family!  We got a mini dauschand puppy.  She was 8 weeks old and we named her Daisy!  The girls have always wanted a small lap dog to keep inside, so we decided to take the plunge and go for it!  She is the sweetest little puppy ever and we all love her so much!  We didn't know before we picked her up that she had one blue eye and one brown eye, but once we found out we knew it was meant to be.  Since Sydney has blue eyes and Jayda has brown eyes it just seemed fitting.  The girls were SO excited to pick her up and still cannot get enough of her.  They both love to hold her and play with her all of the time.  Jayda has even been waking up early in the mornings for school to play with Daisy.  Before we got her I had to drag her out of bed for school, so that has been a nice change.  It's been nice for Sydney to have some alone time with her too while Jayda is at school.  Once Jayda gets home she hardly puts her down!  She's been doing really well going to the bathroom outside and sleeping at night.  Of course she has accidents, but we just try to watch her at all times.  The first few nights she woke up around 2 or 3:00 a.m. to go to the bathroom, but the past few nights she's been sleeping until 5 or 6:00 a.m. before waking up so that's been great!  Jacob and I try to stay up with her after the girls go to sleep for a while and get her energy out so that she's worn out and ready for bed at night.  She sleeps in her kennel very well and doesn't whine until she needs to go potty.  We have had so much fun with her the past week.  Although we are a little (or maybe a lot) crazy for getting a puppy just 3 months before having a baby, I really feel like it was meant to be and she has fit right into our little family!
 
Jayda was so excited to get Daisy!!
 
On the way home with Daisy!
 

First night home with the pup.

Loving on Daisy.

Sweet girls telling Daisy good night.

She loves her little doggy bed.

Hungry baby!

And she's all worn out!  She usually lasts about an hour before she has to take a little nap.

Good morning Daisy!

She fell asleep in Jacob's lap the first night home.  So sweet!

Sydney loves to get in her bed and read her books.

Sweet puppy sleeping in her bed.

Sydney is so good about holding her little bones for her so she can teethe on them.

 
Walking Daisy to school with us for the first time.  Jayda loves this!
 

And Sydney was so excited to go home and play with her alone!
 
 
"Come here Daisy."
 
 
She loves taking Daisy to shcool with her!
 

I was trying to get Sydney's picture at the park the other day and she wanted no part of it.
 
Gotcha!
 
 
We took the scooters to the park last week and the girls had a blast.
 
Woo-hoo!

Last weekend we took a quick family trip to the zoo.  The girls love watching the sea lions!

Jayda has always wanted to do the pedal boats at the zoo but we never have.  She finally convinced us last weekend!

Pedal boating around the pond at the zoo.  It was pretty fun until Jacob decided to drive under the large fountain in the middle of the pond and completely drench us with water.  I especially got soaked since I wasn't really under the canopy!  We did have fun though and the water felt kinda nice because it was actually pretty hot out.
