The Dennison Army

We went to my nephew's 8th birthday party at a laser tag place and in true dorky fashion we decided to dress the part and the whole Dennison family "camo"ed out for the event. Scary, huh?
























Well if you haven't guessed it yet, Ryan and I are raising our girls to be tough. They can do anything boys can do....only better! hehe


Tummy time!











Rylan is already so strong. She can stand up while leaning on me and she has been holding her head up since almost the very beginning. She is just now getting to the point where she reaches for toys and she loves to stare at the fan and in mirrors......lets just hope the mirror thing goes away at some point!

Our sweet baby girl




Rylan is growing so fast and she is such an adorable chunky baby! She has such beautiful eyes and her hair is strawberry blonde. She smiles all the time. We are so in love!

Dress up time!







Although daddy would have loved for Kolby to bypass the girly shoe phase (lets face it - its not a phase), she has already started wearing mommy's shoes and wanting to dress up. Just today she told me she wanted to go buy some shoes......ahhhh - I have trained her well!

Our little monkey!


Kolby is growing up so fast. Though she may not be getting physically bigger each day - she surprises us all the time with her unique personality. We love how she smiles with her eyes.

Fun at the Drive-through Safari!







Kolby, Rylan and Mommy decided to go visit daddy one night while he was in San Antonio for work. On the way down we stopped at the drive through safari. What an experience!

Kolby loved it and was amazed with all the animals as you can see in the pics, but even though she went potty before we drove into the safari she had to go again about 10 minutes into it. We couldn't exactly get out of the car to potty so I grabbed the only diaper I had in the car - which was a swim diaper. Little did I know - they are not meant to be absorbent AT ALL! So she might as well have just peed on the seat of the car!

It was a great time though and Kolby loved it!

Take me out to the ball game!

Mommy and the girls went to visit Daddy in Houston while he was teaching training. One of the highlights was that we got to go to our first major league baseball game! Go Astros! Kolby got cotton candy and she loved it. Also - Daddy was very excited because we got great seats and they were given to us.

Yummy cotton candy!

Digging into the cotton candy!

Rylan and Mommy!


Some family time

This last weekend, we went over to the Mandola Winery to have some pizza and spend some great family time together! We got some great pics of the girls too!

Daddy! Don't spill....open wide!

Oops - I will get that!
All gone!

Yummy gelato!


Having fun with Daddy!

I love being outside!

Here is my big smile! Mommy loves it!

Some mommy and me time!


I have a serious side too!



Spending time with friends

Kolby's best friend is Mikayla. Mikayla and Kolby have had lots of fun times together over the past 2 years. Rylan was born on May 25, 2010 and Mikayla has a baby brother born June 30, 2010. So we hope Rylan and Jax will be great friends growing up too. Here are some pictures from their first meeting. What a great looking group of kids!






The Dennison Family Generation Picture!

Kolby and Rylan's great grandmother, aka Gigi, came down in July to meet Rylan and of course we had to take a Dennison family generation picture!

Here is the Dennison family bloodline.....a good looking crew!

Kolby's 2nd birthday

Kolby had a great 2nd birthday party. She was so excited to see all her friends - most of all her friend Austin from the Backyardigans - who was an unexpected but very welcomed guest! Thank you Austin! We love you!












Our big girl!

Kolby has had a lot of adjusting to do but we are so proud of her. Mommy decided a month ago that she was ready to be potty trained. It took only one day to get her potty trained. We have had very few accidents since then and she is so excited to be a big girl. While we don't have any pictures of the actual potty training (or at least if I shared the one's we had then she may kill me in her teenage years) we wanted to share some close up pictures of our brown eyed girl!





The 4th!

Our little patriotic angel at a July 4th parade! Can you say future president?
What, you looking at me?
Rylan - at the same parade....maybe a vice president?


At least we decorated her stroller!

Sweet sisters!
