Stylin

Leah's preferred outfit. 

   So, many of you already know that Leah has not preferred to wear clothes much this Summer. July was her "hottest" month on this topic, and now that we are almost to September, she is sort of moving on. However, she does only want to wear the same 5 dresses (with one being preferred to all others!). Therefore, I do countless loads of laundry, if only to save my own sanity. Leah is still Cale's biggest fan, although she is giving her a run for her money by taking things from her and making her really mad. Leah is going to be in preschool 3 days a week this year like Cale, and she has a great teacher that loves to play with the kids and is very active with them. Her style + Leah's personality are going to be a great fit. School starts Tuesday, August 31st! 

Cale also has her own style preferences. Some days she picks dresses, and others she comes up with outfits like this one. Stretch pants, Cowgirl shirt and socks pulled up. As well as a bad ponytail (my fault). She has really enjoyed swimming this summer and took some lessons from Miss Alyssa. She has gotten very brave in and around the water. Another milestone for Cale was learning to go down the big tunnel slide at Paradise Park. This slide had always scared her, its tall, covered- so dark, and high. But, we took some friends one day, and what do you know, now she does it like it is an old hat. Cale also has a great teacher lined up for this year at The Summit Preschool. I know that she will have fun and I am excited for her to get back in her school routine.

  

Cale dressed herself for the zoo!

Sissy Magoo

Here is our baby. Also known as Sissy Magoo, Sis, Little Leah, We-ah, and many more. She looks super grown up if you ask me.

Last Days of Summer

the only part they didn't like was having to STOP riding!

Cale and Leah's first boat ride... 

Hero Headquarters- VBS songs

Here is Cale and lots of her friends singing at church after VBS. She is right next to a good friend, Ainsley, and they had so much fun praising GOD!  In case you can't figure out where she is. She is in the front row with pink leggings and pig tails.

Leah... she is something else!

When we blew out the candles for Cale... we put 2 candles in Leah's cookie. You know, EVERYTHING has to be the same around here. It can be challenging to do anything that is not "equal" with them. And, Leah wanted to see her picture up here- so here she is!
She is still the busiest, funniest, most talkative little gal! Spunky is a great word to describe Leah!

Cale is 4!

Happy Birthday Cale! We love watching you grow! It was a fun weekend with a couple parties and a fun Barbie in a Mermaid Tale cake compliments of "Miss Shelley." Thankful for each day that we have together as a family.
