Playing Catch Up!

Happy Memorial Day! :) We are using this weekend to play catch-up, one of those items included taking the girls 7 month pictures. These were taken between naps and swimming so it wasn't the most exciting photo shoot, but we got a few cute ones in. For some reason 7 months seemed like a bigger milestone to me than 6. I guess its because we have already made it half a year or that they are now sitting, eating real food and have grown even more into their personalities. They have eaten everything from zucchini to mango but their favorites are peas and carrots with green beans coming in close 2nd. For some reason fruit is never a winner but we keep trying. Oh yeah, and unfortunately their inherited their parents straight hair so it looks like they stuck their finger in a light socket right now! Katherine (shown first) continues with her body smile and Savannah with her crazy facial expressions.



I am still keeping up with their fabric project (1 picture a month) with the hopes to have a nice album by their first birthday. They are not always as into it as their mommy but the outakes are pretty funny too.



Katherine loves to grab Savannah's toys from her and we think she takes after me because she seems to semi-organize them all to one side so Savannah can't get them. She is very meticulous at choosing them. Savannah on the other hand likes a variety prefers to make a big pile in front of her.



 

We also celebrated a nice mother's day with a small brunch and my favorite cookies. The girls assisted me with a little craft below with a lavender plant in it as a thank-you to everyone who has helped us the past few months.



They also helped Dad pick out some awesome flowers!



We have used the past several weekends to fix up the yard and plant flowers. We are almost done. Its taken us a little longer this year as we aren't quite sure where to put things and our schedule is vary different but we are slowly but surely getting it done. Yesterday we were mulching at 8:30am!



Hope everyone enjoys their Memorial weekend. I am very thankful for the time off. The girls are so fun right now, it actually seems harder and harder to leave them! Here are a few random pics from the week! (Bedtime with Heather, grocery shopping, Baby Einstein movie, swimming and the zoo!)
