the MANY faces of making a backyard campfire

 Last night we had a backyard fire to roast marshmallows.

The girls got in on the action of making the fire.

I didn't really notice all these funny faces they were making until I looked at the pictures.

Chopping wood-  it can be a little scary. Better to close your eyes I guess?

Lighting a match can be very stressful when you’ve been told not to touch matches and you a rule follower.

And this one… she was content to watch. Didn’t even touch the marshmallows.

Serious stuff.

There is the smoke in your eyes face and freak out.

And of course the savoring every bite of chard sugar face.

Rock Climbing

These girls LOVE to play outside. They cry when they have to come in…every time.  I love to listen to them play their funny little games. Tonight I was sitting inside and looked out to find this happening. They decided they were on a rock climbing adventure. I’m sure it was Kyla’s idea. Pretty funny. Helmets, harnesses, and all. They were very into it scaling the mountain several times.

These pictures crack me up. Not sure why she gave me a peace sign…except for maybe the fact that Heidi was actually going along with her idea. Maybe time to buy new shorts for this tall tall girl. I love her.

 

We’re in for a fun summer.

a little date

Today we met Tiffany and Brody for a little coffee/play date. 
I kind of think it was Molly’s first time sitting in a Starbucks. She liked it!
Throwing bread at the ducks was quite thrilling.
Not to mention swinging and sliding with her little friend.
Pretty cute.

Sicky

This girl has been sick!
Sick since Saturday with a fever.
This has been her first day with NO fever.
Yea!
She’s doing much better.
And I am so thankful.
I missed her spunky little self.



A few other notes about our Molly girl right now:
She loves this Blue Dog.
She loves "pokey" coats with "pockeys" aka polk-a-dot coats with pockets.
She sees a plane...she says "boat."
She's getting pretty good at puzzles and colors.
I'm trying (once again) to ween her from always getting her way.

Did you know that Google Reader is going away? I'm not exactly sure but I'm pretty sure that means that your blog dashboard is going away if you use Blogger. (I could be wrong). So now you can follow me at the link above. Kind of stressful. How will I read blogs on my iPad now? Not sure yet.

Toothless Kyla

They just keep falling out. Heidi recently pulled out tooth number four. That was very exciting. Last week Kyla lost tooth number five and last night right before bed out came tooth number six. We call her Little Jack-o-latern. She’s rolling in sparkly dough. She writes a letter to the Tooth Fairy every time. It’s more of a question and answer session where she can answer in tiny fairy handwriting. So fun. Love that toothless grin.

a nice day with not too much action. make sure to tune in soon so you can catch a glimpse of my girl who looks like a jack-o-lantern. she wouldn’t oblige me with a photo before school. She has three teeth currently gone from her tiny little mouth. it’s pretty cute.

also on the agenda…potty training. i’m afraid to start. this was just a precursor to beginning.
