Beautiful Girls

I am so blessed.

Sweet Paige

Before the rain started pouring today we were able to get in a few pics with the fabulous Miss Lala of Shady Lane Studios. I still can't believe that this sweet little girl has been part of our lives for six months!

6 Months Old!

Paige turned 6 months old last week! I can't believe it! She is getting so big. She had her appointment and she is right on track. She weighs 14 lbs. 14 ozs. and is 27 inches long. She can roll over (and over and over). She is starting to sit up on her own. She has also started eating solid foods. So far we haven't found anything she doesn't like. Her favorite "toy" to play with is her toes. She always has a foot in her hand - when she is laying down, nursing, or just hanging out on the couch. She is just the happiest baby to have around. We are so blessed to have her in our family.

A Little Summer Fun

I know that I am way behind on my blogging, but we have just been to busy having fun this summer. Here are just a few of our summer fun pics!

Claire has come over for a few play dates this summer. The girls love the bounce house!!!


We went to Grandma's house for a week and played with Michael and Marc. One of the fun things we did was make tye-dye shirts for all the kids.

I Love Free Stuff!

The other day I got a couple of coupons in the mail from Osh'Kosh and Carter's. They were both save $10 off your purchase of $10 or more. So off to the outlet mall the girls and I went. My goal was to spend very little if any money. Our first stop was Osh'Kosh. I was able to find a cute little tank and some shorts for Piper. Each piece was $5. So with my coupon, we walked out of the store without spending a penny (not even sales tax!). After that we went to Carter's where I was able to get a cute little short outfit for Paige. Again, each piece was $5. I am happy to report that we left both stores with two complete outfits and I didn't have to pull out my wallet once.

Tuesday Art

On Tuesday Piper did two different art projects. The first one was decorating and painting a visor. Piper had a lot of fun putting some summer-like stickers on her new hat and making it a bit more colorful with some paint.
Her second project was painting. I bought some blank canvases the other day and let her go to town on them. She loved painting like a "real" artist.

5 Months Old!

I can't believe that my sweet Paige is already 5 months old. She is getting cuter everyday. One of her biggest milestones this last month is eating rice cereal and oatmeal. It was a rough start, but she loves them now. Soon we will be conquering veggies and fruits. She has also started to sleep a bit more at night. She actually slept through the night for last three nights ( yea me!) She loves to be around people; she especially likes to go out shopping in the stroller with me and her big sister. She also loves to jump in her jumperoo. She loves it so much that sometimes she jumps herself to sleep. It is a pretty cute sight. All in all, she is a happy baby and an absolute joy. We are so lucky that she is ours.
She is getting so long!

Faces of Piper

There just isn't enough words to describe how much I love this little girl.

Wednesday Art

One of the presents that Piper got for her birthday was a tie dye kit from Uncle Larry and Aunt Lynda. She was so excited and couldn't wait to make shirts. When we woke up on Wednesday it was raining outside, so I decided that it was the perfect day for and indoor project. She had so much fun making her shirts and couldn't wait to see the finished project. After 8 long hours, the shirts were ready to be unwrapped. I must say - for our first time tie dying, I think they turned out awesome.

For Fun

Just some cute pics of my girls. Oh how I love them....

PARTY!

On Saturday we had Piper's 4th birthday party. Our fabulous Poppy Rick offered to host the party at his house and everyone had a fantastic time. The weather, company, and food were great. I took a ton of pictures, but here are just a few of my favorites.

The bounce house - the best entertainment ever! The egg race!
