All about Malani

Have I ever mentioned before that Malani can fall asleep anywhere at anytime. Sometimes you'll look over at her and she is O U T.  I have tons of this type of picture.



She is quite the little fish too.  The bad  thing is, she has NO fear of the water.



She is a VERY happy child.  She is always smiling (Gary calls her smiley) and will belt out the biggest belly laugh you ever heard.


We have been spending a lot of time in the pool lately.  Malani LOVES the water, and has quickly learned to hold her nose and dunk her head.  She is also doing the doggie paddle (almost) enough to keep her head above water.  The only problem is that she keeps that smile pasted to her face and gets a lot of water in her mouth.  We have to keep reminding her to keep her mouth shut.  lol.  She is doing really well though.

Our Weekend

Friday Malia had her pre-op physical. She was to have dental surgery, however I got a phone call Thursday night that her surgery was cancelled and would not be re-scheduled because they stopped accepting our insurance (due to not getting paid for past claims) so instead of cancelling the pre-op appointment the same morning as the appt and having to pay $65.00 because I cancelled too late I just went ahead and took her.

We found a much bigger vollyball court sandbox at the campground to play in. 


Its a battle everyday with these two.  If Malani plays with something first she believes its hers and only hers.... forever.  Even if she puts a toy down and moves on to something else she will have a melt down if Malia picks that toy up.  She just does not get the concept of sharing yet, but we are working on it. 
 It looks something like this...... 

At the campground they had a small parade,  everyone in it threw candy at the girls.

Here they are with their loot.

Malia loves to make funny faces when I aim the camera at her.

Dutch Wonderland

We met up with friends of ours (The Walkers) at Dutch Wonderland this past weekend.  We had lots of fun! 




                                             
                                          Malia was so excited to meet a "real" Princess!
                                 


                                    I could NOT get these two to look at me at the same time.

                       The campground we were at had a really nice indoor water park.




It really doesn't matter where we go camping, these girls have a great time.

Camping on the farm

We went to a different campground this past weekend. The girls LOVED it, because they got to ride a pony (for the first time) and pet farm animals.
Malia knew she was going to ride a pony about 4 days ahead of time and was so excited that its all she talked about. Fast forward to when they brought the pony out and it was time to get on.............She took one look at the pony and just let loose with the tears and became glued to me. I felt sooooooo bad because she was excited but terrified. So we put Malani on first and once she saw her sister on and how much fun she was having, Malia got on.
We met up with friends of ours, Mary & Barry.  They got the girls magnifing glasses and the ever popular bubbles.

This little pig was the cutest thing.  He had his own little mud hole.

They had little baby goats running around all over the place, you could pick them up and hold them.
Malia thought it was really funny that this little one was trying to eat her shirt.

She loves to watch her Daddy shave.

They wanted to go up to where the animals 60 times a day.  And when I would tell them that we would go up in an hour (which is a lifetime to a 5 yr old) I would get a hissy fit..............


From each one.


This campground got high ratings from the girls so I'm sure we will be back.
