Fun Summer Days.......

Despite the heat we have been having fun in the sun! We have pretty much just been hanging out in the backyard and having BBQ's with friends. What a great start to the summer!

Julia loves olives!

Lucy gets hot in her fur coat....

Swing time fun

Julia and Reese hanging out with some of their best buddies

Julia being a baby (we are giving our bassinet to good friends who are having a baby and Julia had to take one last ride in it....but Reese is now in her crib at night, my baby is growing up)

Yesterday Julia graduated from her toddler class (where we went one day a week for two hours, parents stayed). I can't believe that I actually have a preschooler now! There was a "ceremony" at a local park where the toddlers walked the bridge from toddler hood to preschool and received a certificate of completion. All Julia talks about now is how she is going to go to school without me next year. She is very excited to be a big girl, me, not so much ;-).

That's my girl!

Reese is so proud of her big sister ;-)

Walking the bridge

Cupcake time

The class, I guess I didn't change my setting to outside, a little bright

Treats for Lucy

Julia and Lucy's favorite pastime.......

PS - a bathing suit is the only thing you will catch Julia wearing now.

Fun Pic's

The girls are growing so fast! I can't believe how big Reese is getting. Every day I pull out her clothes for the day I realize they don't fit and have to grab a bigger outfit. She is smiling and "talking" all the time. Julia is still enjoying being a big sister but is still learning how to be gentle.

I don't think Reese will ever be alone, ever!

New golf clubs that daddy got me! Don't most golfers golf in swimsuits?!

Two cuties....

Loved the facial expression!

Do not let the dress fool you

Julia always has been a lover of the outdoors and pretty rough. Add the two together and you get one scraped up little girl. With the nice weather this weekend we were literally outdoors except to sleep. Even then Julia slept just enough to get enough energy to do it all again. She was up at 6:30am on Saturday in a dress and outside. She was so busy bike riding, park hopping and whatever else you can think of. Even the biggest of falls could not stop her, as seen below! She is one tough cookie......

Always in a dress, which is why the falls hurt that much more, no coverage!
