10 months old!

It's a little concerning that our Lulu is 10 months old already! She is growing up way too fast. In the past month she has started crawling, cruising around furniture, and babbling up a storm (and I'm happy that one of her favorite sounds/words is Mama). She has six teeth (four top, two bottom) that she likes to show off in her happy little grin. For her birthday today we took her for her first outdoor swim (and subjected her to many photo shoots).







Dancing Queen

This girl loves to dance almost as much as she likes to change clothes. Here, our little dancing queen shows off her jewels and her moves.

(occasionally this queen deigns to approach her subjects)

Saturday morning fun

This started as a little time outside blowing bubbles and drawing with chalk. Introduce a bucket of water and...
...voila! We now have body paint!
Which is also fun to dance in.
And makes a decent face paint.

Lucia was happy to just sit back and munch on some O's.


Isabelle's new treat

Isabelle's new favorite treat is popcorn. This series is from the first night we popped some.



(Note the outfit in addition to the headphones: 3-month onesie, ballet skirt, Elmo undies. This kid has a style all her own.)

More from Rhiannon's visit

We had such a good time with Rhiannon and Sadie... only wish they lived closer and that Jackson could have come!









Little swingers

Check out these cuties!



Little Sadie Leier Blacher on her 5 month birthday!


Las fresas

Isabelle is learning about las frutas this week, including las fresas. She and I picked about five pounds on Mother's Day and she enjoyed them as much in the field as at home!







(Oh, and of course, she is wearing Lucia's shirt. That's why her belly's hanging out.)
