Labor Day Weekend Pool Fun

We took you out to the pool for only the second time this summer over Labor Day weekend. We met the Reynolds' and Redigers' there and all had a great time. Just a few pictures from the day to share is all.

 

One of the cutest pictures ever of Miss Hannah and LA. She couldn't
get enough of you and wanted to hold you all day long!

Sarah Louise - the little fish!

Just chillin.'

A very content girl and her Daddy.

Hannah Banana.

Sarah was in heaven when all the boys started having cannon ball
and dive contests with her. Too cute!

Love moments like this!

Didn't get one of Clara before she went to take a nap, but
this is a cute one of Lys and Levi.

Synchronized diving!

 

8 Month Photos!

I finally got around to getting your 8 month photos taken (just a week or two late) somewhat last minute, but it ended up working out great! We did them on a Sunday evening and despite being pretty hot you did fairly well. You only gave us a few of your big smiles, and otherwise the best we could get were your silly smirks. You seem to get shy when we take out cameras or our phones...so that was to be expected. We also found out that you are not a fan of dirt or grass. When we sat you down, it was an instant fit. And a fit that took awhile to get over because you were so upset about it. Can't say I blame you.

 

I think they turned out pretty well! :)

Such a sweet, sweet girl. Melts my heart.

All she did was brighten this picture, otherwise those beautiful
blue eyes are all yours, babe!

 

Random Phone Photo Dump

I couldn't even begin to figure out when all of these are from (I'm going to do my best), but I have accumulated so many from my phone that I was having a hard time deleting that I thought I would just make a post to dump them all into so I can get them all off my phone.

 

I call this the dinosaur face. Daddy texted me this picture
one day when he was watching tv. He said he looked over at you
and saw this face. :)

This was at our 1st ped's office, so it must have been
the 4 month checkup.

Sweet girl only cried a few seconds
after her 4 month shots.

Another text from Daddy. Love that smile!

This was at our first visit with
Dr. Pedersen for weight check. You
LOVED that paper and thought you were
really, really funny :)

*Loud screech*

This must have been at 6 or 7 months?

Daddy wanted a picture so here is one on
our way to daycare.

So sweet and innocent ;)

 

Do these make me look smart??

This is how I found you one morning.

You have got to be one of the prettiest little things
there ever was.

SQUISHY!!

Not amused that you are sitting all alone
in your jumperoo.

Turns out you really CAN hold your own bottle. In fact, you
can even single fist it. Impressive. My, oh my, how we have been deceived!

I asked you one night if you wanted a
teepee to play in and this was your response :)
Daddy is clearly amused!

Couldn't get enough of these bedtime smiles!

On a walk with Mommy, just hangin' out.

Aunt Roo texted me this picture one day when she was hanging
out with you while we were working (8.22.13)

Takin' a break from shopping with your Roo!

Oh, and there's the dinosaur face again! You sure do love
that Roo!
