So Many Cheeks

Here are my 3 babies around 6.5-7 months. I think they look more a like at this point then at any other point in their lives. Especially Rhianna and Keira. I think it is pretty obvious but I will let you guess who is who. ;)

Happy Girl

Rhianna loves to play in her bouncy chair. She is getting enough muscle in her legs to get pretty high off the ground. I just love the look of pure joy on her face.

Highlights from Idaho

So I am tired of fighting with blogger so there will be a bunch more photos on Facebook. Just head on over there if you like what you see. These photos are in no particular order. We had a pinata at reunion. The girls thought it was one of the highlights of their day. They both got in a pretty good hit!

Riding a tiger at the zoo. The real tiger was MIA but I don't think they girls cared because they were way too interested in the fake one.

Apparently Mom beat Aunt Terry at the game (I missed it) but it seems like a photo finish to me.

This lion wasn't so tough. He spent the whole time we were there eating grass.

Elaina tiptoed her way across this bridge both times we went on it. She is usually fearless but this bridge was more then she could handle apparently.

We went and walked around the Rexburg temple. This was the first temple grounds the girls got to walk on (we visited the Idaho Falls temple the day before but the grounds were under construction so we could only look from afar.) Elaina told me that she is going to get married in THIS temple. So lets hope that works out for her.

A fun safari tent they had at the zoo.

We went to the Legacy Museum of Flight in Rexburg. It was really cool. All of the old planes they have there are able to still fly.

More at the temple.

My favorite part of reunion. Keira and Elaina (and some other kids I think) chased Andrea around the yard with water guns.

Practicing for their trips to the amusement parks, I am sure.

The baby had so much fun! She was a really good baby. So happy.

Really Random

This summer has been going by fast, I guess. I don't know what we have been doing and I really wish school would start but when I think about it, I can't believe it is almost August.

The baby had her first food other than formula and cereal. It was green beans. She isn't quite sure if she likes it. She ate a lot of it but she spent a lot of time gagging and shivering like it was the nastiest thing she had ever put in her mouth (sort of how I feel about green beans but my girls have always liked them!) We will try again tomorrow and see if she warms up to them at all.

We got home from the grocery store and the girls decided to build a castle out of the food that needed to go into the pantry. They are very creative, I will give them that. They weren't exactly thrilled when I declared it time to put the food away. I was starting to get worried they were going to break a jar of baby food. I am such a party pooper.

This is just funny.

Elaina is our middle child for sure. She likes to find little ways to remind us that she is here (like we forgot!). This evening she was still eating dinner when I had to go feed the baby and she got into the peanut butter that was on the table and gave herself a beard. I tried to yell at her but I just ended up laughing really hard. Oh well. I am probably too mean of a mom most days. She wins this round!

More Parties! Are We Done Yet?

The girls birthday cake. Thank you, Walmart! The kids loved it and it was super easy to serve up. Just grab a cupcake!

Happy girls.

Opening some presents. They are lucky to have summer birthdays because they get bbqs and opening presents outside!

We Washingtonians don't use umbrellas when it rains, we use them when it is sunny. Our sensitive skin can't take the UV rays.

This poor little baby had a cold but she was such a good baby. Next year she is going to be quite the helper at her sisters' birthday parties, I am sure.

Keira is 5!

Keira is five years old now! I can't believe it. Yesterday was her birthday but we have been celebrating all week long it feels like. Blogger decided to switch up the order of the photos but we had Keira's princess party last Saturday. A local children's salon has a party room and the owner is a member of the church I go to and she donated a party to an auction the teens in our church had for their youth programs over the summer. I bid on the party and won! So Keira got this fun friend party and they had a blast. They got their hair and nails done and got to play princess themed games and make princess themed crafts.

On Keira's actual birthday we went to the zoo with Grandma Marcia and Great-Grandma Williams. It was the perfect day. It was nice and cool so all the animals were out playing. I have been to that zoo a million times and I saw animals out that I have never seen out before! It was kind of cool. She got to pick out what we had for breakfast, lunch and dinner and she picked donuts for breakfast, sandwiches for our picnic lunch at the zoo and pizza for dinner. Then she wanted strawberry shortcake and I found a strawberry boston creme pie at the store and thankfully she thought it was perfect! What a fun day for a cute 5 year old!

We Know They Are Sisters

These are all my babies at about 4 1/2 months old. Can you guess who is who?
