Fun in the Sun

Annie is loving spending time in her new swing.
Lucy loves every part of this new swing set!
Thanks Nanny and Pappy for the swing set! We've been outside now every nice day that we have. I love that the girls have this outside now - it reminds me so much of my own childhood. I've been showing Lucy all the different things I used to do when I was a child - flipping over the bars, swinging on my belly. It took Lu just 2 days to learn how to pump her legs and swing like a champ!
And you know Lucy has to swing while fancy as well!

Sweet Girls

Lucy, 4, is such a performer. She loves to sing, dance, and perform for anyone. She's so into princesses and dresses - anything that sparkles and is frilly. But she does love to run around and play baseball with Daddy. She's excited about getting back into ballet again. Lucy loves preschool and is doing so well. Her personality is definitely coming through - as well as some spunkiness. But she is a huge joy and definitely keeps me going all day long.
Annabelle, now 7months, is such a sweetie. This pic shows her first time in a restaurant high chair. She is rolling over and sitting up on her own. Still hates her belly though, but tolerates it a lot more now. Annie is hardly ever fussy unless she is very tired - very go-with-the-flow. She is a watcher - she loves to watch us do things and definitely is a great audience for Lucy!

Thank you, Lord, for these two sweet, amazing gifts that we have been given on this side of heaven.

I Spy With My Little Eye.....

.....Daddy and daughters having a good time after dinner.
This is how the girls spend time before bed with Daddy.
I love seeing it!

Enjoying one of my all-time favorite treat as a kid - strawberries dipped in powdered sugar.
This is what happens when you accidentally sneeze into a bowl of powdered sugar!

I came downstairs to see this! Annie was "looking" at her book while Lucy was reading her sister "Brown Bear, Brown Bear."

I'm 6 Months!!

Ok - a little early - on the 23rd Annie will be 6 months but we had her 6 month checkup today!


Stats
Weight - 16 lbs
Head Circumference - 16 3/4
and......
tada!
Length - 27 in. - 90-95th %tile
She is going to be a tall lady!

Still on reflux meds - and we'll try to wean her in 3 months. She also rolled over just once this week from belly to back, big accomplishment! She loves all her veggies so far - I made her some butternut squash that she devours each time we give it to her. Surprisingly she is not a huge fan of fruits just yet. She's so silly and loves games of peek-a-boo. She gets giggly and jumpy when we sing "If You're Happy and You Know It." Annie adores big sister Lucy - and will watch her dance and laugh each time she spins.
We love our sweet Annabelle!
