My New Favorite Book

Cute Girls

Clara almost always refuses to be in pictures, so I thought I'd share these of both of the girls. I got Clara to get in the pictures by the crib by asking which one of them was taller. Clara definitely thought she was taller. In the past couple of weeks Savannah has started to pull herself up on things, including in her crib. Clara is so delighted to see her standing in her crib and says, "Good job, Savannah!" It's so funny.



I got Clara in this picture because she wanted to play baby (she's the baby, obviously). I told her to lay by the other baby so I could take their picture.


Savannah is always pulling up and standing up by things. If someone is holding her and puts her down, she immediately crawls or army crawls over to me and pulls herself up by clutching onto my calves or pant legs. She is very much a mama's girl.


She is barely 10 months and got her first teeth this week! Her first one was her top, left front tooth. And a couple days later we could feel some bottom teeth. She's already chipped paint off her crib rails and even had paint on her cheeks. So here is one of her last toothless smile pictures! In this picture she had dumped out all of Clara's crayons out of a gallon-size ziploc bag and was very pleased with herself.

Summertime

We've tried to find new places to see and things to do this summer. We found a little gem called Decker's Creek. It looks like we're in the middle of a wooded wonderland, but the car is just behind us, and we can hear the rumbling sounds of semi-trucks zooming by. But it was fabulous. Cool, clear water, smooth rocks and a little 4-year old who looks like she just climbed out of a pool. She was so soaked on the car ride home. She loved it. :)

(This is the only picture that would upload...so more to come later.)
