Some photos of what we have been up to in June (you will have to click on some so you can see them bigger and get the expressions):
Maybe one day I will get around to the past 5-6 months that I skipped. Or more likely...not. I only have time today because I have a sick kid and can't go anywhere!
 |
| Playing dress up this morning- aren't they beautiful princesses? |
 |
| Blue did not love sharing the same side of the swing, but Carli thought it was great! |
|
 |
| Yes, that is the tiniest ponytail I have ever done-- or seen! She always wants me to fix her hair when I do Blue's so I gave it a try and she was so pleased. She ran to the front door when Daddy came home shouting, "Daddy! Daddy! Pretty! Pretty!" |
 |
| They sure love playing at Discovery Gateway-best membership ever. |
 |
| Or maybe the zoo. They love that too! |
 |
| Cheese! |
 |
| Good friends- a reunion a long time coming! Just wish we had the few we are missing :( |
 |
| We rode Trax downtown to the Radio Disney days and the girls loved it. It was nice to have them out of their carseats and not having to drive :) |
 |
| Facepaint was the big hit of the day! |
 |
| She cried and cried when I wiped her face off that night. She has asked everyday since then when she can have her face painted again! |
 |
| Strike a pose! |
 |
| This is the "princess" face paint. I am just amazed they could do anything with her squirming the way she was |
 |
| Took Blue to get another haircut--She was so excited |
 |
| It turned out adorable! She said she liked her new haircut "becuase my bangs are not poking my eyes anymore" |
 |
| Carli thought it was great too |
 |
| But sorry girl, it will be a long time before you get a cut ;) |
 |
| I have no idea what this look is- but i love my curly Carli |
 |
| I was making sandwiches and walked out of the kitchen. Here is Blue caught red-handed helping herself to the peanut butter... Can you see that face? |
 |
| Is she thinking- Now that you caught me, what are you going to do with me? I am so cute, you can't get mad right? |
 |
| Nope. I can't get mad. Get a big scoop and go for it. |
|
 |
| Oh my goodness- I love that smile! This is what I get when she says "Cheese!" |
 |
| Trying on Daddy's garden hat |
 |
| She loves that we put up the bunk beds- even though the top does not have a mattress yet. We didn't have space to store it in the basement anymore, but I don't want her sleeping up there yet |
 |
| Look at that basement progress! Mark has a couple misc items left and then... sheetrock! |
 |
| Heading out for camping. I think Mark was the most excited :) (about packing or camping I don't know) |
 |
| Our budding little photographer took this one :) |
 |
| I love that my kids are great campers and we actually got some sleep (and they weren't even in our sleeping bags!) |
 |
| I don't know how, but Carli fell asleep on the hike- she was all folded over and zonked |
 |
| Can you see? Her head is touching her arm, touching her knee- wowsa |
 |
| My girls cuddling with me. Too bad it was only for body heat... I don't get lots of cuddling from Carli for other reasons |
 |
| I think Blue found her first crush. She wanted to "sit next to that boy" |
 |
| Thank goodness our friends let us borrow their hiking backpack- Carli was not diggin this other alternative |
 |
| Eating home-grown peas and lovin it. Good supplement for breakfast :) I like to pick things early in the morning, and they didn't want to wait! |
 |
| In the Eagle's nest at the zoo |
 |
| Oh man they are cute |
| | | | |
| Carli was holding on for dear life |
|
|
|
 |
| And Big Sis was more than willing to take care of Baby Sis |
|
 |
| Blue loves to spin Carli |
 |
| I am not sure Carli likes to be spun thoug | | h |
 |
| I didn't have her binky, so she settled for next best :) |
 |
| The library had a little petting zoo thing. Blue jumped right in and petted everything! |
 |
| She loved the bunny |
 |
| Carli however, just held onto my leg the whole time. |
 |
| This is how she did minus the leg... |
 |
| I love this one :) So glad to have friends- I mean "besties". Sisters close in age- they are a perfect match :) |
 |
| The West Jordan library grand opening had characters walking around- Blue only liked them from a distance, but |
 |
| she was so excited to see Ariel! |
 |
| Carli loves smoothies (and messes) |
 |
| Enjoying Cat in the Hat knows a lot about that! When I say it is time to go, Carli starts to sing, "Go, go, go!" ( I guess you have to see the cartoon to understand) |
 |
| I put her in the cart with the watermelon and she was calling it a baby. I told her it was a watermelon, so she kissed it! Go figure. |
 |
| Yep, she loves it alright. No more kissing once it was cut though. I told her not to eat the rind and she got a really sad face. Sorry little one, next time I will either cut it off, or just let you go for it! |
 |
| With the start of summer we have done quite a few fire pits. Can you tell what her favorite part of that is? I love when she says (which I hear all the time), " I have an idea! Let's have a fire pit!" |
