Ella & Kate: Summer Fun

Ella's vocabulary is expanding so quickly and she surprises us with a new word nearly every day. She and Daddy were pretending to be watching a parade on our stairs the other day. She said, "Daddy, wave to the Grand Marshall". We have no idea where she heard that, but it definitely made us laugh. She also has been using time references lately - and generally she uses them correctly, but the last couple of days instead of saying "in a couple of minutes" she says she will do it "in a couple soons". It cracks me up every time!

Kate has been smiling for a while now, but I can't seem to capture the true moment with the camera. It just looks like she has her mouth wide open. She's such a happy baby. And a good sleeper! She wakes up at night only to eat and then goes right back to sleep. She only has one night feeding. It's amazing how quickly she is growing. At her two month appointment a couple of weeks ago, she was 12 lb and 23 in which is the 75% for both! She has also had more interest in finding her thumb lately. I recall Ella doing the same thing at this age - looks like both of our girls will be thumb suckers! Can't wait for the orthodontist bills!

I don't think that Aunt Annie will ever find me here!
