Sisterly Chat

I was messing around with my little camera, pushing buttons and getting confused, when I got these pictures. Apparently, I had pushed a button that made them black and white. Not sure really what I did but I am a little sad that aren't in color. 

Just a sweet little face.
She's been sick this week so it was nice to see a little smile. 

She saw Hollis on the floor and bent down like this and said "doydoydoy".

Hollis loved every second that she got big sister's attention.

Marin was done talking but...
Hollis wasn't.

The last of our May pictures....

So here are the last few pictures that were on the camera....

Memorial Day fun at the Allen's.
Sprinkler fun! 


She kept going straight for it and we were afraid it may take an eye out.
Andy had to keep going in after her.
Burke was working so he missed out on this fun. 

And she's back in there....

Can you believe this girl is big enough to sit in the high chair?!?!?

Loved it. 

Sand box fun with Mason.


Five Little Ducks is Hollis' favorite song right now.
It's really cute how she will "sing" along sometimes. 

Our little "song" box....Hollis LOVES it.
Marin likes the Monkey/Alligator song but is over all the rest of them. :o) 

But Hollis and I have fun with our puppets and books and songs. :o) 

Our craft project....
Last year, Burke and I found this easel in the alley to be thrown away. So we did a little dumpster diving and
saved it for future use. This last week we pulled it out, chopped off the legs, and painted magnetic paint on it. Now she has a BIG (not just a cookie sheet) magnetic board for her animals. 

And because I wanted a picture of her chubby wubby little toes....


Seriously, I love the rolls. 




Matching arm and leg rolls. :o)

Nose, ears, mouth, eyes

We have been working on naming our nose, eyes, ears, mouth....but she could see herself in the iPad and she got a little distracted.

Just for fun....

Our girls....
This girl is well on her way to rolling over from back to front and....

loving every minute of it!

Having so much fun ROLLING around EVERYWHERE!

I love Sunny Days. 

Blurry but you get the idea.
Rolls and laughter. 

Marin loves to read.
She is really into touch and feel books and lift the flap type books.
It's fun. 

Burke loves putting this work goggles on her.
It really is funny. 

She thinks its funny too.

Looking at baby sister napping in the video monitor. 

Now talking to her like a telephone. 

We are loving summer dresses this year. 

Her latest is putting her baby doll in the carseat.
She likes to try and snap it. 


Playing in the sprinklers after a hot day at the park. We had to stop at every single one on our walk home. 

Our neighbor friend joined us for the fun.

Some of our days....

First.....our beautiful Hollis enjoying some tummy time.



Practicing the roll over. Seriously, look how BIG our baby is!

Next....Burke got the girls matching pajamas. Well, really he got them for me. I love PJs on our babies!
Checking out the PJs or...
 wondering how she can steal Sister's passy. 

"I will not look at you, Mommy." 

This picture just makes me laugh.
Hollis doesn't know what is going on and then there's Marin making a little appearance.

Her "I'm being a stinker" face.



Momma's crazy eyes.

They wanted to watch a show before bed....on their changing pads. 

And then.....this is becoming a common activity at our house. I push Hollis in the stroller and Marin pushes her baby. It really is so very cute. (Except one walk ended with me pushing Hollis, carrying baby and stroller, AND Marin while both were crying. One baby was ready to go in while the other was not finished climbing all the neighbors steps. Yeah, I'm sure our street got a good laugh at that one.) Other than that, it's really cute.

"Bye"
One of her favorite words. She waves and blow kisses.
She said her first "sentence" the other night.
Looked up at Burke, gave a little wave, and said "Hi, Daddy." 



Happy girl!
We love our cousin's hand me downs!
We pulled out Kate's summer dresses this week! Now that she is walking, it is a lot easier to wear dresses!
And we got some new hair bows! 

Last but not least....our 3 month old in her sister's 9 month old outfit. We have a big girl.
