TORI...

...is writing her own name. I thought she was just saying the letters as she was scribbling on her paper, and then she brings me this...

Inchworm

Kayla's getting mobile. Not only is she rolling all over the floor and running into and getting stuck under the coffee table... But she is also now doing an inchworm crawl ...

...yes she did end up with the rattle in her hand; my camera just ran out of memory :)

My Obsession...

Taking cute pictures of my precious children...

Two Obsessions

Tori loves to talk on the phone. Whenever I'm on the phone she always wants to know who I'm talking to, and when she can talk to them too. She is also becoming obssessed with a miniature Strawberry Shortcake puzzle we picked up for her a couple weeks ago. I was talking with Grammy and Grandpa one evening while Tori was working on her puzzle and she wanted to talk too. I fully expected her to stand up from the table and dance around with the phone as is customary. She proceeded to multitask.

Another of her fun pastimes as of late has been playing dress up...

July in Review

July has been a busy month for us. Here are some of the highlights.

4th of July Parade, continued tradition with the Mattos Family

The girls and I spent a week with Grammy and Grandpa while Ej was out of town for business. We had fun preparing for the Fraser family reunion and spending time with Great Grandma Margaret:

And we've just been enjoying everyday life -

Kayla's New Seat

She's still a little small and not quite strong enough to sit in her new Bumbo for long, but I think she likes it. Occasionally she leans forward enough to chew on the middle post, or her toes.

Tori is quite taken with this new addition as well.
