End of July

I am so behind on everything, but I wanted to get these pictures up of the past few weeks. Elsie is growing up so fast I can hardly believe it, she will be 6 months next week! It is already going by too fast! Here is what our little munchkin has been up to... (There are really so many pictures, I still feel the need to capture her every move, feel free to stop looking at about picture 85...)

My parents are slightly obsessed with Elsie to say the least and luckily she loves them! They are always willing to watch her and it honestly saves me! They have watched her almost every day the past week while I have been helping Dave get ready for the Parade of Homes. They are life-savers!

We went to lunch with my sister and my good friend Natalie. It was Elsie's first time meeting Nat and she loved her!

Elsie was wearing these overalls and I went over to Morgan's for a second. Hadley asked me what Elsie was wearing... I said they are her work clothes!

We are teething over at our house... but nothing has come through yet! Those dang teeth! most of the time she is fine but every few days she wakes up from her naps like this! Poor thing!

Elsie and Avery planned a play date with their new friend Asher Peterson.

From the looks of this picture Elsie sure had a fabulous time!

We finally went to the pool with cousin Brooklyn. It was so hot outside that after swimming the girls played like this...

We went to the Farmers Market downtown with Ash, my Mom and my Grandpa

Elsie aka Curly Sue...

I think this is the funnies picture! She is always cracking my up lately.

I have been doing away with the swing lately and she did fine for about 2 weeks. Then we had a crazy few days and she hardly got any naps. One afternoon she would not go down to sleep and kept fussing. Finally after like an hour I threw my hands up and put her in the swing. She looked up at me with the biggest smile on her face, snuggled up to the little pillow and fell asleep instantly. This is how I found her when she woke up...

Happy as a clam! She loves that thing!

And check out that hair..

Later that night she kept being fussy (dang teeth), all she wanted to do was be held. I put her in the baby bjorn and of course she had a blast... juat look at her face

For Dave's mom's birthday we dressed the girls in matching outfits that she gave them. These two little stinkers make it so hard to take pictures of the two of them. This was the best we got..

Happy Birthday Grandma Michele!

This little girl (or should we call her Wanda) prefers to see the world through her rose colored glasses

We loves our little princess

We went to Natalie Farley's baby shower! Yay for little girls.. we can't wait for Elsie to have a new friend. The theme was "Feather her Nest" and Kimberly of course did a darling job!

Kimberly, Elsie, Lizzie, Morgan, Preston and Me

Happy 24th of July!!
