Bathtime, Ice Cream and more...

Both girls have been a little fussy lately, and waking up at night. They both have colds, and both are cutting teeth. Sophie's two year molars are coming in, and Ava has her 4th tooth coming in. Poor things!

Sophie had her first haircut in June, and I just realized I didn't post the pictures. I thought for sure she would want to sit on my lap, but she actually didn't mind sitting on her own. She wore the cape and everything. I had Amanda just trim the ends to even it up. So it only took 5-10 minutes. Sophie was so funny. She just sat there emotionless. I kept trying to get her to smile for the camera, but she wasn't having it. I think she was just taking it all in, as it was all new to her. Here are the pics I did manage to get.



Here are a couple pictures of Sophie in the midst of dancing. She loves to dance with mom and dad. And she especially likes to be held while dancing so she can be dipped.


The girls love bath time! Ava loves splashing in the water, and Sophie loves to splash Ava! Of course big sister always has to pick on litle sister. Sophie also loves to squeeze the rubber duck against her belly because it makes a farting sound. hehe.



Lily, a girl that lives across the street from us, was so nice to give Sophie her old princess backpack. Sophie was so excited and wanted to put it on right away. She said, "doesn't it look so pretty". It was very cute.


Jeremy took the girls for a really long walk to the old 7-Eleven (don't remember the new name). Sophie ate some ice cream on the way home, and hit a lemonade stand that some of the neighbor girls had. The girls wanted to know what happened to Sophie's face. By this time the ice cream had dried on her face. And Ava was entertained by carrying a pop bottle. So cute!



Not a whole lot has been going on the last few weeks. Jeremy is taking a few vacation days next week. We are going to the zoo one day and Michigan's Adventure another day. And we will probably spend the weekend up at my parent's cabin. So I should have some more updates after that. Here are some random photos from the past few weeks.


Sophie and my cousin Katie






Hmmm... I'm thinking.
