Teddy Bear Park

Back at the end of May, Kate and I with some help from Brynlee, made a Summer "To Do" list.  One of the things on it was Teddy Bear Park.  So today we went down to Highland Park to see these Teddy Bear statues and have a picnic with our teddy bears. 

There was a little waterfall on the walk to find the statues...

 There they are across the water...







 Typical...they wanted me to take a picture of their bears with the bear statue. 



 Our little picnic...
 Brynlee loves to ride in the stroller...
 Camryn is starting to want her independence.  Look at that face!
 Then we went to walk the trail and feed the ducks.  The girls were really intrigued by the plants in the water...



 Kate watching the ducks.  This was right before her croc fell in and I had to retrieve it!


Random Phone Pics

Just a few random phone pics from the past few days...

Camryn likes to sit with Big Bear and read.  So funny!

A little picnic and World Cup Soccer.  It was Camryn's 1st time to sit at the table.  She only fell out of her chair once. 

Camryn took a fall in our front yard and has a huge knot on her head...


Brynlee has been asking when she is going to get a "work drawer" and lamp to "see the pictures in her book" at night like Kate.  So we got her a nightstand and lamp for her room!

She was so excited!  The balloons are from the Indian Baby Shower Brynlee and I went to.  Our neighbor sent those Its a Boy balloons home with us. 

Another picnic and movie!

Camryn found some sunglasses!

A little USA World Cup and 4th of July mani

Kate rarely plays on my phone but when she does I always find stuff like this in my photos.  She thinks it so funny...

Sleeping Beauties

When I went to check on these 2 last night this is what I found...

sleeping with her Anna and Elsa balloon...
 and Kate in her Rapunzel gown...
 Love these crazies...

17 months - Camryn

Kate and Brynlee stayed at my parents house for a few days so its just been Camryn and me the past 2 days.  One kid at home is so quiet...and easy.  I think she missed her playmates.  So to pass the time Tuesday afternoon we did a little 4th of July a week early photo shoot. 







She is getting so big!  And talking more and more every day.  I can tell she is trying hard to say words...sometimes I can understand her and sometimes I have NO idea...which is frustrating for both of us.  Most of the time she is so laid back but if she doesn't get her way, runs out of food, or gets something taken away she can definitely throw a fit.  She's started grabbing my face when she wants something.  She does not want to be left out of anything.  If Kate and Brynlee are doing it, she is going to try.  Oh Camryn...we love you so much!  Happy 17 months baby girl.
