Tummy Time

This little girl seems to tolerate tummy time much better than her big sister did!

Too Cute Not To Post

Hiking in Heber

We did some hiking in Heber Springs today.  We hiked this particular trail while camping last year.  Shelby did even better; she is becoming quite the outdoorsy girl!  Channing carried Katelyn in the Snugli.  She got pretty fussy whenever we stopped moving.  We're wondering if it was because she was facing Daddy's chest.  Hope that's it...we want her to enjoy hiking too!

Reading Together

I am thankful that both of our girls enjoy books.  Some friends from church gave Katelyn this book that will "read" the book for you.  Katelyn loves the illustrations, which are actual photographs rather than drawings.

Tuckered Out

Shelby still takes a nap most afternoons. Usually, she'll sleep an hour or so and be ready for the rest of the day.  Today, though, I noticed she wasn't her usual perky self.  I sat down on the couch with her, and turned on the television for her.  This is what happened minutes later.

Little Miss Creativity

Shelby has been incredibly creative lately!  She likes to make "people" using her beaded necklaces and other toys.  Here she is laying in the floor next to a recent creation.  She used both pieces of a plastic hamburger bun for eyes, and plastic potato chips for the shoes.

Daddy's Girl

Shelby loves her daddy to pieces.  She will go on and on about how wonderful he is, how cute he is, and how she loves being with him.  I am so thankful that these two are so close!  What a blessing it is to have a husband who is so good at being a daddy to little girls!

Katelyn's First Baby Doll

Isn't this such a sweet picture?!  Shelby picked this little doll out for Katelyn while I was pregnant.  It has been a huge hit so far.  Katelyn holds this little doll like this pretty much every time it's in the swing or bouncy seat with her.  I think this girl is going to love dolls just as much as her big sister does!

My Greatest Joy

It is such a joy to see these two girls together! They obviously love each other so much. Watching my girls interact is definitely one of the greatest things I have ever seen.

Shelby loves playing with Katelyn!

Here's how I found Katelyn and Shelby this morning...

Shelby's New Piggy Bank

Shelby got a new piggy bank while we were in Memphis.  She's been using my old Cabbage Patch Kids one.  We'd decided that the CPK's eyes were "creepy" and had put the bank in the closet a while ago.  Shelby picked out this cute one at Target.  She is so excited!!
