tiny dancer...

This little ballerina outfit was Ryne's when she was a baby.  I forgot about it but love it!  Reese made a precious little ballerina!

Trying to get in daddy's office!  Lots of fun stuff in there!




photo bombed by Ryne!  :)

Such a sweetheart!

love her sweet little hair and it's little cowlicks!

Have toys, will play...

I love when I can get the girls to play with the same stuff without fighting over it!  It seems like Reese always wants what Ryne has and that usually ends in shrieks and "I had it first"s!  But sometimes all the stars align and we have a perfectly lovely time playing together!  



always time for a silly face or two!





Reese really enjoyed putting dolls in and pushing them around.  She was cracking me up because she would  try to put her face in the top too!  Maybe she just wanted a closer look!


Silliness abounds at our house!

big like sissy!

Reese loves to sit in Ryne's booster seat.  She climbs in and out about 100 times!  She thinks she is as big as sissy!  She is getting too big too fast!





Yummy spaghetti!

A certain 1 year old loves spaghetti!  Love messy baby pictures!




A certain 4 year old loves it too but isn't near as messy!

Sprinkler fun!

We had the most inconsistent sprinkler system when we first moved in.  For about 3 weeks we didn't know when they would go off.  Sometimes way after we were in bed they would go off.  Usually when J was out of town and I was not about to go outside at 1am to figure it out!  Unfortunately all that watering led to a $384 water bill.  Yikes!  At least Ryne enjoyed them from time to time!  :)



Watching sissy and wondering when she would be able to do that!  :)

One happy girl "getting some energy out"!  She likes to say that when she is in the mood to run...especially during road trips!

My little helpers...

I have a couple little helpers at my house!  One day I walked into the living room/kitchen after laying Reese down to see Ryne rinsing off lunch dishes and putting them in the dishwasher!  I was so impressed that she totally did this on her own.  She has never done the dishes and I would have never asked her too!  She was so cute and proud of herself...totally made it worth cleaning up the small pond!
Reese also likes to help with the dishes!  You never know what that girl will try to sneak in though!  :)
She thinks that it is easier to unload by crawling in!
They have started constructing the house next door and Ryne was really concerned with the workers getting too hot.  She counted the workers, grabbed the right number of bottled waters and asked if she could take them water.  So sweet!  She makes me so proud!
Daddy helped pass out the waters!  :)

A night at the circus!


Jan and Ken invited us to go to the circus with them.  We had so much fun!  Ryne couldn't really remember the circus from the last time we were there so it was like a whole new experience for her!
Watching the pre-show...
Getting a lift so she could see better!
Pretty Daddy!
Of course you have to buy the $20 spinning light!  BTW - she still has an identical one from the last time we went to the circus!  Next circus we will just bring both of those and act like we bought them for Ryne and Reese!  lol!
The elephants were my favorite!
One happy girl!  
Even a cutie with pink plastic hair!
Reese really seemed to like it!  She just squealed when any of the animals were out.
We walked over an air vent on our way to the car so Ryne had a Marilyn moment!  lol!
We had a great time!  Can't wait until the circus comes to town again!
