Ice Cream and More

There are so many cameras full of the girls that I have finally gotten most of them organized. There are still two cameras to go... But here are some fun photos from this summer that I am catching up on.

Fun Moments

Today we went blackberry picking on our property. Our basket was full after about an hour of walking slow and picking what we could reach without getting poked too much. It doesn't even look like we made a dent in the blackberries, and there are so many more that aren't even ripe yet. This year's harvest is amazing. I am freezing what I can and we will be eatting blackberry cobbler at Thanksgiving and Christmas. :) Isabelle tries to eat them as soon as I put them in the basket, she LOVES them!!!

I also started my Christmas shopping... I know, I know... But it was for Isabelle, and of course she found one of the gifts so we had to give it to her. It is a little piano... I will have to get video of her playing it. So cute.

Enjoy the photos.

She is getting much better at the coloring. Keeping it on the paper at least. ;)

Love my kitty

Who knows what her future holds

Play Date 2

So glad the summer isn't over and doubly glad that I get to play with her. Even though our yard, front (with a big hole in it that we have now dedicated to be a burn pit till we can fix the drainage proble (that is another post)) and the back (a big dirt pile or mud pile if it rains) we can still get some fun at our neighbors place. The sprinklers were on, the slide and swings, and all sorts of other fun was ready when we arrived.

The above photo was totally by accident. We haven't started her training on 'thumbs up' yet, so this picture is perfect. She is soaked... mainly from just standing in the sprinkler, not running through it.

Going up...

That yellow slide was just too big. So she found the little blue one. She could climb the ladder on that one no problem.

.....Going Down

First swing was with mom... then I got my own.

Swing time was pretty short.

This was a fun day, of course, my camera got full mid-way through play date so my neighbor got hers out and got some more of the kids. Yes, I mostly posted my baby. There is a couple cute ones of Isabelle driving Easton's Jeep though... Of course that will get posted.

Beauty

We are starting to eat with the spoon, quite well I might add... though it gets frustrating at times when the peas roll off. But she is getting the hang of the spoon thing. However, sometimes the spoon gets laid down and the hands get to work... way easier to shovel in the food.







'Got it... YUM'

Here is a new one that I learned.... Even if the shoe fits it may be the wrong size. I went to get her a pair of tennis shoes and well, when she got her foot measured, she was a 5 1/2 -- 6 size shoe and well, I had her in 4's. Needless to say, we got some bigger shoes all around and she loves her tenny's... She decided one day that was all she wanted to wear.

FUUUUUNNNNNN!!!!!!


Flowers... I really need to get a video of her smelling flowers... its too cute!



She is growing up so fast! Seriously... Where does the time go? We always heard our parents saying that... I guess there is truth to it, the time goes and goes. It is so hard to hold onto our precious babies. They grow up.

It's September

School is back and Yes I am working everyother day again this year and LOVING IT!!!! One day of work (with awesome kids so far this year) and one day of play. So glad that the summer weather is still around and staying for a whole. Isabelle and I went to pick black berries this morning, but they are not ready yet, so after we each tasted one and made the sour face, we just went for a walk around the property instead. We can't believe how fast she is growing. She can climb up and down the furnature all on her own now, eats anything in site, and she is talking a ton. Of course, not much is understood, but she gets a new word each day... 'keys' is the newest.

Pics to come...

Silly Family Time

Its been a bit since I have posted. The fireplace is almost finished, just need to finish painting... then I will post that beautiful thing. Untill then, here is our sweet silly family.

Ouch

Stylin' till Saturday!!

Fun Moments

She is the most adorable and expressive little girl!!!

We are in the BIG bath tub now... Our little duck tub is too small. :(

Of course, we had to graduate to the big tub after the day in the mud. We had so much fun!!!

We were out picking wild flowers. She ate this one.

Fun Hair Day

Isabelle kept taking out my hair band the other day, so I just put it in her hair. She didn't like it at first, but right when I got the camera out, she started posing. Such a cutie!!

Playing with the cat. Got my baseball and mommy's gardening glove. What else is there??

Ahhhh
