Our little girls

~Our Little Girls~

KiYa:    Kiya loves to talk, talk, and talk.  She loves to be like her sister, and loves to climb on anything and everything she can.  She is definately our firecracker, and has a personality of her own.  She loves to be the center of attention and loves to make us laugh.  She loves reading books and has to have about a hundred in her bed when she goes to sleep, plus all the stuffed animals and babies she can find.  She also loves to tease her sister.  She loves to be chased by Taya and loves to sing. 

TaYa:  Taya is such a great helper!  She loves to help me whenever she can and loves to please us. She is loving preschool and learning so much.  All her preschool friends love her and love to sit by her.  She is liking to write, and starting to read little words here and there.  I can't believe she goes to kindergarten next year...where does time go?   Taya is so smart in many different things.  She loves playing the ipod and she may even have to teach her dad how to work it :)  Taya loves her little sister and they are such great friends.  Don't get me wrong they do have their moments when they are fighting, but what sibling doesn't? 

Our girls are the center and the joy of our lives!!!  We love them with all of our hearts, and couldn't imagine life without them!!!  We are so blessed to have such sweet girls, and we cherish every moment we get to spend with them! 

Kiya Turns 2

Happy Birthday Kiya!  You are getting so big so fast!  You are such a sweetheart and we all love you so much!!! 

Happy 4th of July

We went to watch the fireworks here in Logan.  We always get Wendy's for the girls and Juniper for us.  We go sit in a parking and play games. We also surprised Nanny, Mammy Becky and Aunt Bri and Brody by showing up at the Kaysville parade.  Wow...what a parade! We also went to Bear Lake for a day with Vera, Jeff and their kids and Vic, Anton, and their girls.   

DaYtOnA BeAcH and GeOrGiA June 2010

We went to Daytona Beach and Savanah Georgia for our family vacation this year.  It was a blast, we loved just hanging out at the pool and enjoyed spending time with the Bouvangs (our second family) and their Georgia family who were so welcoming!  We were able to take Taya and Brody to Disney World without having the babies...thanks to Katelyn and Becky, who loved watching them. Although we had a monsoon while at Disney World, we still had a blast and Taya loved going on the rides especially Splash Mountain. 

TaYa is 4

What a joy is has been having Taya in our lives!  She is such a sweetheart and such a great big sister!  She loves her sister and loves playing with her (most of the time.)  She is so smart and is such a beautiful little girl!  What a little angel we have been blessed with!  We can't believe she is already 4.  Time definately flies when you are having fun!

Some more updated Pics

Well here is a little update on what is happening at the Haslam Household...

Kiya is walking and has been for about 2 months.  She is beginning to run...which is definately a good and bad thing :)  She is talking quite a bit, but most of it we still can't understand.  She loves copying her older sister and loves being where she is.  She is going to be our firecracker.  She is very headstrong and stubborn.  She loves to tease, be chased, and loves giving kisses.  She loves her Daddy!  She gets so excited whenever he gets home! 

Taya has been going to Preschool and has been learning so much!  She just finished on May 20th.  It's amazing how smart she is!  She is very good with directions also.  Whenever we are driving around she knows when we get to Daddy's road or when we are passing his work, or where we turn to go to Kids Klub.  I don't even say anything to her and she knows!  She also loves playing with her baby sister and loves being outside.  She loves to ride her bike and scooter!  She is such a good helper also.  She always wants to help with the laundry or with cleaning...I hope she keeps wanting to!  She loves babies!  Real ones and dolls!  It's amazing how early their motherly skills develop! 

Christmas had finally arrived

Taya thought it would never come...and I'm sure she was sick of the threat of being on the Naughty List...Santa was definately good to us! 

KIYA is ONE

Happy Birthday our little baby girl!!!

I can't believe it has been a year since all of that excitement.  Kiya is doing so well!  She is crawling all over the place, and says Hi, momma, dadda, ball, ba ba (bottle), Ta (Taya) and a whole lot more but i'm not sure what it means. :)  She also loves to dance and make fish lips.  Kiya is trying to walk and does well walking along the furniture and loves to push whatever she can on our kitchen floor for example a tote or a chair or an empty box. Kiya has such a cute personality!  She loves to smile and laugh and just be loved!  She just loves her big sister Taya, and loves to be wherever she goes and play with whatever she has.  She loves when Taya chases her too.  She laughs and screeches and trys to crawl as fast as she can.  Taya overall has been really good sharing with her!  Taya loves Kiya so much too!  She loves to hold her and carry her.  Sometimes she is just a little rough, but that will toughen her up...right.

A ShOrT BuT SwEeT UpDaTe

Lets start way back in May...Taya turned 3 and had a fun birthday party. 

Here is our little sweethearts in July...Don't they look so cute!

Here is August...Taya's first day of Preschool

OcToBeR

Happy Halloween!  Well I will have to get some pictures in a bit but Taya decided to be a pumpkin (and came up with that herself) and Kiya was a Ladybug.  Oh they looked so cute and Taya loved getting all that candy!

Kiya is 3 Months Old

Wow, where has the time gone? I can't believe Kiya is now 3 months old. She is doing great! She is smiling so much more, and loves to tell stories. She loves to sleep on her Daddy's chest and he loves holding her! She is blowing bubbles and is such a little drooler. She loves sucking her fists and loves clenching her thumbs inside her hands. She is so alert and loves just looking around. She also loves looking at Taya, and tells her so many stories too. I forgot how fun it was having a newborn!

Kiya's Blessing

What a perfect day! We decided to have Kiya's blessing at our house due to it still being RSV season. Shane did such a great job, and wow was the spirit felt! Thanks to everyone that could come and support us, and to everyone who wished they could be there.

Eskimo Kisses

When Taya was younger we would always do "noses" or eskimo kisses and so she decided to do it with Kiya. She did it all on her own. It was so cute!

Kiya is 2 Months old

WoW...Does time fly by! I can't believe it...Kiya is now two months old. She now knows how to work the system. By that I mean, she knows if she cries hard enough, she will get picked up and get the attention she wants. It just amazes me how early in life they learn that. Anyways, she is just so cute! She loves looking at faces, and her neck is getting so strong! She can hold her head up for quite awhile. She also loves looking at bright lights, and is starting to find her fist. It has been quite an adjustment for Taya having a baby sister...but she sure loves her baby sister. She always tells me "I love my baby sister soooo much."
