Helper!

Paige was our little painting helper.  She wanted to help paint the new garage sheet rock that Daddy and his friend, "Big Matt" hung.  We did not trust her with clothes - so diaper it was!  What a great helper!!!

(PS - the garage looks amazing - nice work Kyle!!!)

8 Months!

Hannah is such a happy, sweet girl.  She loves watching Paige play around.  I love it when they giggle with each other.  Hannah is not in any hurry to move, but loves to sit up and smile at everyone.

Wheeling!

Camping trip number two was to Sandlake.  We took the jeep and camper and spent the weekend wheeling and playing with friends.  This was Hannah's first wheeling trip.  She was amazing!  The backseat kept shouting, "Daddy, we're stuck . . . Daddy don't get stuck!"

Wheeeee!!!!

Sweet Smiles!

I love the hands up and expression - priceless!

So windy!

Waiting for the other jeeps to get "unstuck" -
time for the buckets and shovels to come out!

Love this!

Cheerios in the camper.

Swimming!

We got the girls a new swimming pool.  They have loved splashing and playing while we work in the yard.  Love the smiles and laughter that a little orange pool and some sunshine brings out!

Camping and Fishing!

Sorry for the long length of time between posts.  We have been super busy!  We have been camping twice, wrapped up a school year, threw a retirement party and enjoyed some family time and wood cutting at Kyle's grandparents all in a month!  Here are some of the wonderful pictures from our first camping trip to Crane Praire Reservoir.  The girls were great campers and fishers!

My Fishing Team!  

They are adoring one another these days!

Can't get enough of this picture!

Nap time on the boat

Loving the fishing pole!
(PS - the life jacket was only off for a few seconds - sorry lifeguard, coastguards, and worried grandmas!)

Princess Paige!

It is a frozen princess just about every day - in light of the movie Frozen.  She loves to dress up and twirl her blanket around the ground.  My favorite frozen conversation with her is about a song that says "he is a bit of a fixer-upper".  I told her daddy was a bit of a "fixer-upper".  I asked her what mommy was, "a fixer upper", what is Paige, "a frozen princess", what is Hannah, "a spitter-upper"!  Couldn't be more truth spoken from the mouth of a 2 year old!

7 Months Old!

Hannah is growing so fast.  She is full of laughter and smiles!  My favorite is when she laughs and giggles at Paige.  They are interacting so much and they both seem to be the best of friends.  They laugh, touch, talk, and occasionally give kisses to each other - so sweet!

A little tear, but still a smile.

There's that sweet smile and bright blue eyes!

So much to say!
