Randoms...







The Nixon weekend!

Our dear, dear, dear friends from Minnesota came and stayed with us a few weekends ago.  We just love Josh, Ang and Kallen!  We feel so blessed by their friendship! Here are a few photos from my phone. 












Summer Buddy...

Here is Hallie and Harper's buddy Jake.  I think this is the closest thing to a "crush" Hallie has ever had.  She just loves Jake!  She wore a dress to my mom's the other day and asked if Jake would think she is pretty?!  It kind of knocked me over but I know it is innocent.  She really just loves him because he is SUCH a nice kid, thinks of cool and crazy things to do, and actually plays with her!  And of course Harper just follows in big sister's footsteps! 

The Zoo





Patty and I took the kiddos to the zoo a few weeks ago.  I forgot my camera but took some photos with my phone. We had such a good time!

Harper Roo....

Sweet, spicy girl- You never cease to amaze me.  I thought you would be so challenging to potty train...but 2 days ago you decided you were done with your diaper.  Just like that, done!  You were done being a baby and ready to be a big girl (sniff!)!  Today you had one accident...and mommy wasn't home for it...so you were probably having too much fun to stop and potty!  I am sooooo proud of you!!  We are still working on going #2 in the potty, but I know you will get it!!  Good job little Roo!
