Hope and Sandie surprised us with a visit this weekend as well. I have to show you these pictures because Hope kept telling me I was "too slow" to get a picture of her looking...maybe I was most of the time, but I got one sort of and actually caught her looking one time so thought I'd show just so everyone could see. Don't worry, I won't bore you with all the misses.
Every now and then Jaden wears real honest to goodness cute clothes for me...so I make her sit still so I can take her picture. It helps me remember the days when I used to get to pick out what she wore. Now she tells me "I'm an athlete not a girly girl" and every day I get a pony tail and some Converse tennis shoes with jeans and a t-shirt. Although Joe tells her she has to give up the barbies if she's not a girly girl, and trust me that's not happening anytime soon, so I still hold out hope that she will be a little bit of both. I think she wore this outfit because she just got these adorable flip flops from her soccer coach (made by his wife of course) and she wanted to try them out!!!

I don't see Jaden every completely giving up the "girlie-girl." She loves shoes and dress-up way too much :) But the fact that she now identifies herself as an athlete gives me hope that Sadie may not always be so completely girlie...Somewhere in the middle is good!
