Check out my very own pool!

My sister JaNae is a wonderful sister and such a great aunt! She is always so helpful and thoughtful. The other day she stopped by on her way home from the mall and brought by this pool. She bought it for Anaston just because! And let me tell you, it was the perfect gift for her! You know I'm always talking aboout how much she loves to swim and now having her own pool in her own backyard!!! Check out how dang cute she looks in it! Thanks JaNae, we love ya!

Dress up and playtime!

We went to Michaels to get some supplies for the frames I've been making and we ended up going down the aisle with cute little accesories for girls and dolls. So what did I do? Dress Anaston up like a princess. She loved it, thought it was so funny! She was all smiles and laughing, it was adorable. What can I say, sje was born a princess! As for the other picture, any of you who have ever been around us know Brian and Anaston's trade mark. He balances her on his hands and holds her oh so high. Not only that, they do tricks as well while she's up there and she loves the fame. They've been oing this since she was like 3 months, it's amazing. She's super strong and well balanced! So Brian always tries his trick on any other baby around and teaches them how to do it as well. Every baby loves it from what I've seen. So he taught Brogan at our house the other day. As you can see, he's a fan! His daddy will have to continue the fun with him!

Swimming at the Scheurn's

Is this little pose of his not the most hilarious thing you've ever seen!?

Anaston and Mommy in the pool

My sweet little girl

Anaston and her friend Brogan in the kiddie pool

Such a cute face!

Oh what do ya know? The dog found Anaston!

My friend and I took our kids swimming at her parents house last week. It had been about a week since I last took Anaston swimming which is way too long for her. I had to give her EXTRA LONG baths in the meantime to hold her over. We got some cute pic's of course.

All by myself!

Quite some time ago Anaston really amazed us with how early she taught herself to coordinate and pick up her itty bitty snacks with her thumb and pointer finger and feed herself. According to when the typical starting age is for this task, she was two months early for figuring this out! She is so smart, it's amazing. She loves to have snack time!

Bathtime just keeps getting more interesting!

Anaston has a new challenge when she's in the bath(which she loves!). It's trying to climb out of her bath or stand up in the bath. I love for her to have fun but I have to re-arrange her ALOT now when she's in there.

My first ponytail!!!

Jaymee and Anaston

Yes, yes, yes...I finally got Anaston's hair in a ponytail! It is so dang cute on her! I've tried here and there in the past to see if it's long and thick enough and the day has finally come! I'm having so much fun with it! She loves to let me do her hair and put pretty bows in it.

Gloria and Anaston

Anaston playing with Gloria, Linda and Majorle
Last week my Aunt Gloria came in town to help my Aunt Linda. They are my mom's sisters. One night Brian, Anaston and I went over to Linda's to catch up. Anaston had a blast with them and even the dog Majorle too! I couldn't believe it cuz he's so big but that didn't phase her.

Fun outings and funny incidents

We took Anaston to try out some convertable car seats. By weight she's about ready to be in one and forward facing already! But she still has three months till she's one! We'll probably wait till one to put her in one but she sure had fun trying them out and letting us know which one we should get!She tried to sneak the whole can of treats!

Favorite activity on changing table? Eating my feet! I'm so flexible!
Sleepover on Grandma's bed! So comfy!

Anaston has gained a love for dogs! Just adores them! Especially Stitch(pictured)

Loves to pretend drive! She did this for ten minutes straight, cracking up ad having a blast while waiting outside Joe's farm grill to have lunch with our friends.

Costco's the best...double shopping carts! Anaston and Brogan loved it!

Oh what do ya know? Driving...again!

We met up with Daddy while he was on a job. It was too hot outside so we sat in the car and watched.

Dad's Birthday Dinner

Jade straightened Brooklyn's hair, how beautiful is she!?

Dad's favorite...Jade's fruit pizza! Notice the skewer candles!

Dad, me and Anaston

Anaston sure loves her Grandpa!

And she sure loves her Grandma!

Especially her kisses!

Anaston decided she wanted to "free roam" meaning no clothes! ha ha

Playing with Daddy and getting good kisses!

Pulling up on something, of course!

So happy playing with her cousins and the rest of the family!

After all that, you better believe she passed out for quite a while!

Aug. 11 was my dad's birthday so the Sunday following we got together to do his annual birthday dinner. It was so much fun being together once again as a family and watching everyone with Anaston. Everyone just loves her to pieces and loves playing with her.

Anaston in action!

Anaston loves her sippy cup!

Only lasts about 10 minutes in this now!

Lot's of playing requires lots of sleeping!

She loves her toy Grandma Knight gave to her!

This is so not me to have not been updating lately! We've been keeping very busy lately and havin lots of fun. Anaston has her two bottom teth now and looks so cute! She's talking so much! She has new words everyday and just finds things to talk to and goes off forever speaking some language I'm still trying to figure out! She's all over the place now! She's already working on walking! This girl has always been very ahead of herself but if she starts walking soon that will just be crazy so hopefully it takes her a little while to tackle that one! She just pulls up on so much and tries standing on her own, it's so cute. If you hold her hands and walk with her she'll take some steps. She's waving hi and goodbye. She's still clapping alot and especially when she's excited or proud of herself, it's adorable! We're working on blowing kisses. This stage is SO much fun! We're having the time of our lives with our sweet little girl!Here's some pic's from what's been going on. Let's take this one post at a time! ha ha

This is so much fun!

I've been doing alot of online scrapbooking lately. It's so much fun and so easy! I made this quick scrapbook to send to my mother and father in law to again thank them for our wonderful trip to Oceanside, CA.

We will miss you Casey, Tiffany and Payton!

Thursday night we went to a goodbye party for Casey, Tiffany and Payton Jennings. It was so much fun hanging out with them and catchin up with other family members and friends there as well. Casey is Brian's first cousin and they are moving to Colorado for 4 years while Casey attends Veterinarian school. We have become really close friends with Casey and Tiff and just adore Payton(Anaston especially does) so we are really sad to see them go. On the brighter side, we wish them the best of luck with this new chapter in their lives. We know they will do great and be happy wherever they go and we can't wait to see them at Christmas!
