It took a while for the nice summer weather to get here this year but we had a lot of fun playing outside, relaxing together, and laughing! It's nice that the kids are content to play with simple things like balls, chalk, and sticks without needing to go and do all the time.
What could she be thinking as she stares at that ducky toy? Maybe she's waiting for it to quack at her!
Seoul picked "matching" outfits for her and Sydney - both were purple shirts, the closest they had in the drawers.
Seoul spent a good chunk of time laughing while she was trying to stack all the rings on my head. She calls them her "rainbow."
Kelley & Sydney looking at photos on the iPad - he is showing her what Seoul looked like at that age.
Seoul really got into running in circles and playing catch with her big ball. This activity kept us occupied daily.
Still loving those Lowe's Build and Grow workshops - they are daddy-daughter mornings and Seoul loves all the things she makes. (She calls it daughter-daughter day for some reason). Today was binoculars - this is the view I saw of her all afternoon, although she did decide it was more fun to look through them the other way so I look smaller. Goof!
We spent many a day at the park swinging. Seoul loved walking there - she rode in the stroller while I carried Sydney in the Baby Bjorn. She looks so big in the swing now! Sydney is following in Seoul's footsteps and loves swinging, too.
Our Sydney is growing and is as happy as a clam. She rolls and is close to crawling. She loves food - veggies, Cheerios, drinking water. She is such a good girl to sit and play or watch Seoul run around.
All summer long I battled sticks and stones. Seoul thought it was great fun to collect them, bring them in the house, and leave them on the carpet (which is dark so they're not easily seen). She seems to be moving out of that phase, thank goodness!
Who doesn't love sidewalk chalk? Rainbows were Seoul's drawing of choice, although she told me many things to draw. Let's just say drawing on the ground isn't my forte but it's good enough to appease Seoul.
She's just beautiful.
Makin' silly faces at each other.
Peek-a-boo!
Sydney got her first pedicure... whew - had to be quick to put a dot of nail polish on those tiny toes! She and Seoul were matchy-matchy.
The girls started bathing together and they have a ball playing! Seoul helps wash Sydney and we do fun styles with Seoul's hair when it's full of shampoo. (I remember doing that when I was younger!)
We love summer fun and spending time together! We love having a yard where the girls can play and sometimes play with the other kids on the block.
