Odds N Ends...

Don't have much to report here from the past week other than it has been entirely too hot!!!  We have been stuck inside most of the time with all the blinds and curtains closed trying to help the AC out as much as possible.  Since we have NO shade at our house the air has been running constantly during the day. 

Marley is closer than ever to crawling.  She gets up on her knees and rocks back and forth but reverts to inching around when she needs to get somewhere.  She is getting into more and more things all the time.  I'm going to have to put up another gate to the hallway because I've found her in the bathroom a couple of times already...

Here are some catch up photos from the last week or so...

Lily playing with her new birthday toys... and later that night she fell asleep with her "pack pack" on...

and the next morning :)

Saturday 7/16 was Cash's 3rd Birthday...

and Sunday 7/17 was Chase's 3rd Birthday!

mischievous little girl...

and trying so so hard to crawl... almost there!

yesterday we drove out to Avoca to have the girls pictures taken... this was the night before trying on outfits...

last night Marley was infatuated with Lily's Tinkerbell book.  She kept trying to grab at all of the pictures.  It was so funny!

This morning the girls and I went to Whole Foods for Marleys baby food supplies.  I am starting to make chunkier foods since she is starting to show interest in feeding herself.  She has been doing a great job with puffs and baby mum mums so I thought I would try some fruit.  I steamed the pears then cut them up into tiny little pieces.  She ate some for dinner tonight and did very well.  Tomorrow she gets new oatmeal cereal!
