Teddy Bear Picnic

Today we had a council event at Great Trail Camp, it was so much fun the girls made a picnic basket out of a paper bag (such a fun and easy craft), they sang songs, played games and also stuff their very own teddy bear and of course we had a picnic (kinda, you have to use your imagination we sat at tables :0) lunch. Our first year of girl scouts is almost over we only have two meetings and a mother daughter tea at Mrs. Molly's Tea Room and we will officially be Brownies. Great Job girls I have loved having each one of you in my troop!!!

Sisters

The babies love their big sisters!!

They even reach their arms out for them to hold 'em.

Off to the Dr.

Riley has developed a pretty mean cough over the course of this week so today we decided it was time to call the Pediatrician. I am so glad we did - turns out both the babies have ear infections. Riley has an ear infection in her right ear and Reagan has one in her left ear....no fun. Actually, Reagan wasn't even scheduled to see the doctor but her eyes started getting really red so we asked the doc what she thought, then after she saw Riley's ears she wanted to check out Reagan. What a good Dr. we have!! Very thorough. So now we have three of our four children on antibiotics. Makenna has tonsillitis. Josh took her to see an ENT because she has had so many issues with her throat this winter. Turns out she may have to have her tonsils out and get this Chloe may too. Josh was telling the ENT about how Chloe snores and constantly has a runny nose he said children should not snore and wants us to get her in to see him. It seems Kenna has unusually large adenoids and he thinks Chloe probably does too. So they may both be having their tonsils and adenoids out this summer. Crazy thing is Josh and I both have our tonsils. Although, after Josh said that about the snoring I'm thinking maybe we can do a 3 for 2 deal and get him in too...hehehe. I'm always trying to fall asleep before him, it's not easy sleeping with a snorer (is that even a word? ;0) Can I get an amen!!

I think Riley was a little worried she was going to have to get a shot.

I think Reagan was thinking, "Hey, why am I on this table?!"

Baby Girls

What a beautiful day we had today!! The weather was unbelievable. It was so nice to feel the sunshine. Makes me very anxious for vacation. We will soon be heading to Florida for 2 weeks. I cannot wait! Makenna and Chloe are very excited to see their Grandma Judy and Papa Booder. They love playing in the sand too. Grandma and Grandpa live 10 minutes from the ocean. We are counting down the days and can't wait to see you guys...we love you so much!!

Tinkerbell is getting excited too!! She loves vacation.

Father Daughter Dance

Chloe and Daddy had a special evening Saturday.

The Girl Scouts had a father daughter dance, they both really enjoyed getting

to spend time together just the two of them.

Can You Believe....

"Can you believe he did this to us Riley. What is on our heads? We could be in big trouble when we get older if he buys our clothes. Yea thank goodness we have a good mom." Okay I am just imagining what they are saying to each other but I bet it was pretty close based on their actions. I have never posted before on our site, and may get in trouble lol. Just took this picture today while I was watching them and thought I would post it, I am a bit bias but I thought they looked adorable in their outfits!

Teething...

Could it be we are teething....?

Updates....

I know I just posted about the things the babies were doing now at 7 months BUT in just a short week they are learning and doing so much more. First thing, you know that petrified look of terror that your baby in this case babies get when they realize you are leaving the room without them...doing that, not loving it. Really starting to reach for toys out of their reach so cute, do love that. Crying and reaching when they see us eating and not sharing with them even if it is sausage gravy and biscuits...I think I may start losing some weight now that I'll be sharing my food with two others. This may have all kicked off with the cracker at Jen's, not minding this. Sleeping til 7ish, oh so loving that!!! And of course getting around all over the place in reverse, not sure about this yet. I can just imagine walking out of the room for a sec to return only to find one baby and completely freaking out that I have somehow lost the other...of course only to discover she managed to back under the couch. I may have to pull them out and clean behind them a little more often... =-p They are also experimenting with the sippy cup, love it. Adorable. They know exactly what to do. They also love to talk talk talk. Hey they are my girls so I would expect no less. All of you who know me personally know how I love to talk ;0).

On The Move

Okay this didn't last long. They are REALLY getting around now. As soon as they learn to go forward lookout... ;0) We are really starting to stress to the big girls soon we will have little baby vacuum cleaners...no more little toys laying around. Rae was pretty excited she was having a good ole' time, Ri wasn't sure if maybe she went a little too far. Slow down babies your growing up way too fast!!!
