Splash Day at Preschool :) :) :)

We have ben so so SO excited about "splash day" at school!  Here are a few pictures of the fun that we had today! 

 Hailey and Adele- one of M & H's favorite little friends at school

Headed out to get a little wet!

Let the fun begin!!

All in all- it was a great day! :)

XOXO,

Haynes Family update!

The past few months sure have been CrAzY to say the least!!  Here are a few of the things we have been up to lately!

The girls visit their soon to be home- Corpus Christi!  I think it is funny that they are still looking for Miss Christi... :)

We met the incoming OMFS resident and his finance'.  We broke them in right at The Poop Deck...  

If you can't find us- check at Mario's!  This is a weekly standing date with Liz and IV.  It is amazing and may need to be continued throughout the summer.  I could come back once a week- right?!?!

                           Mattie and Hailey get pampered!  OOOH LaLa! Our first PEDICURE!!

 Hailey took to it like she was born at a salon, but Mattie was a little more uncertain.  She was willing to "have pretty toes" but wanted to stay with me.  :)  Secretly- I am SO ok with that!  :):):)

Fun with friends - LOVE me some Laura V, Kate Martin, and Amanda K!

Liz and I became models!  That is a completely different post- but OH SO FUN!!!

Murdoch's Oh the memories!!

Mattie spelled her 1st word!  Can you say future Chi- O?  I can! :)

We went to our first tea room with Sweet Mrs. Stevy and Alaina.  I wish I had a picture of us all!

As alway- WE LOVE some dress up!  Whether it is "driving Mrs. Daisy" hats at the tea room

or Mommies rainboots and heels- WE LOVE to be "FANCY"!  We often tell Daddy how "FANCY" he is! Hee Hee!!!

We LOVE the park!!! 

My little monkeys!!!

XOXO,

March of Dimes 2012

There is no better way for me to celebrate Mattie and Hailey's lives then to celebrate with the March of Dimes yearly walk!  This was the 2nd walk we have been able to participate in (physically) since these sweet girls have been on this earth. 

I had so many GENEROUS, GREAT people donate to this amazing cause in honor of my 2 loves and again- every bit counts!!! We personally met our goal of $350 and as a team raised over $750!  

  

 Although, Matiie and Hailey weren't in the NICU for a very long time (2 weeks to be exact), they did receive the help of the March of Dimes- several of the meds they received to help their lungs strengthen, monitor their breathing, etc- were developed by grants that Drs received from this amazing organization- so every NICU parent is touched by March of Dimes!  Thank you UTMB Resiterns for supporting this LIFE CHANGING and LIFE GIVING Cause!

2 of the greatest Mommies I know celebrating babies with my 2 sweet NICU wonders!

XOXO,
