Phone Pics

Brynlee loves to push Camryn in her car...

Parker had the great idea to start reading chapter books to Kate.  The 1st one they read was James and the Giant Peach.  She came down from her nap one day with this drawing of James and the Giant Peach.  It's the peach with James and all the insects.  So funny! 
Oh, Camryn.  This drawing board has become one of her favorite things.  Probably because she watches Kate and Brynlee play with it all the time...

And of course, she insists on carrying it everywhere...

Her 1st drawing...

Brynlee taught herself to pedal this little tricycle...

So proud of herself...

They love their frozen pjs!

15 month stats

 People tell us ALL THE TIME how much the girls look alike.  So here's a little 15 month comparison.  I had a hard time find a good picture of Kate at 15 months.

 Kate: 32.3 inches and 26.5 lbs

Bryn: 31 inches and 24 lbs 2 oz

Camryn:  31.5 inches and 23 lbs 6 oz
She continues to fall between Kate and Brynlee on height and be below them in weight...although she loves to eat and now eats more than Brynlee most meals!

Brynlee's Mother's Day Tea


Brynlee's Mother's Day Tea was yesterday.  She was so excited it was her turn!

Ready to go to school...with Daisy, of course.

Kate wanted in the picture too...


They sang the caterpillar/butterfly song and said their bible verse.  Her teachers always go above and beyond.  They made tutus for all the girls and shirts with bow ties and suspenders for all the boys.  Sooooo cute!!!


Brynlee was so excited to show me her tutu!


Her crafts!




Love my Brynlee Bear!


These always make me smile...

Bike Riding!

Kate has been working hard on her balance bike.  While we were gone, she practiced a lot with PaPa T.  When Parker got home last night, she asked to put her pedals back on and try riding it by herself.  She got it immediately!  After a few trips up and down, she asked to move up to her big girl bike that she got for Christmas. 

And she did awesome!!!  This morning she wanted to try again.  She rode up and down the street!  Soooooo proud of her!




 She still needs a little help getting started but once she's pedaling she's off!!!  Such a big girl!!!

15 months - Camryn

This sweet girl is 15 months old...and a few days.  She is so fun and such a mess!  She has learned to sneak her paci and/or blankie out of her crib...
So proud she got her blankie!
She's starting to talk more and more.  She can say a few animal sounds... "bmooo"

She also says "baaa" for sheep and tries to make the fishy face for fish. 
Camryn may be little, but she leaves a big mess everywhere she goes!  Notice she snuck a paci too...
And just a few other things about our 15 month old.  She is waving bye-bye.  She can say night-night.  She points to show you where she wants to go...or what she wants.  She says "dis" or "dat" when she points.  She tries to say book and Bailey.  She gets so excited when you repeat what she is trying to say.  She can sign "more" but mostly just makes noises until she gets more.  She understands basic commands...go get that book, let's go take a bath, time to eat, let's change your diaper, get your shoes, etc.  She is still stepping (not walking).  She takes a few steps, falls down and then crawls to what she wants.  She is a great eater.  She loves her sisters and gets sad when they leave her out (go in the other room to play something without her messing it up!) 

Just a few pictures of our sweet Camryn...

Kate's Mother's Day Tea

Today was Kate's Mother's Day Tea.  Her last one (tear) at CLC.  The theme for their class was Hollywood!  And her teachers told them to dress FANCY!  Kate picked out her outfit. 

When we were at the store yesterday picking out Kate's boa, Brynlee asked for one too.  And this morning she insisted on being in the picture.  Sweet girl was feeling a little left out.  Her tea is Tuesday...

Sweet Camryn was sick with a fever on Tuesday and missed her tea. 

All the mommies walked in on the red carpet and the paparazzi was there to take our pictures!


Our place settings!

They said Psalm 139 for us and then they got to show off their crafts!

Silly faces...per Kate's request.




All the kids drew pictures of their mommies for the wall of fame.  This was Kate's!

Elle and Kate...

Such a fun time with sweet Kate!

Awana Cubbies


Kate completed her 1st year of Awana Cubbies.  She has loved every minute.  Wednesday night was her class graduation.  So proud of this girl for how hard she has worked!


So proud!
