Mischief

I've said this many, many times but it's worth repeating - life is NEVER dull with 2 girls around. Last Thursday was a particularly mischievous day for my sweet babies.

First of all, Ainsley was out of my sight for about a minute and a half and when she crawled back into sight this is what I saw:


I'm not sure how she managed to get her diaper off. I sure hope this isn't the start of a new hobby of hers!

I thought this was going to be the mischief of the day. Little did I know that Anneliese was going to suffer from temporary insanity that afternoon. Most of you have heard the story by now but in case you haven't - she went over to our neighbor's to play. Well, their play involved cutting Anneliese's hair! Needless to say, we were completely heartbroken that her gorgeous curls were gone.

Here's what she looked like when she came home from the neighbor's:


And here's the finished product after taking her to get it fixed:


It's cute but it just breaks our hearts that she looks so much older. We're just not ready for our "baby" to grow up. :(

Here's to hoping that's all the mischief that happens at our house for a while!

Summer Fun!!

We've had lots going on around here this summer so I'll try to sum it all up in one long post.

4th of July
We celebrated the 4th the only way we know how - with good friends, barbecue, watermelon and fireworks.




Just Playing Around
Summer days are made for playing around at home and with friends.





Rite of Passage
Our "baby" girl had her first sleepover this past weekend. I am in total denial that I have a child old enough to have sleepovers! Anneliese's 2 neighbor friends came over on Friday and they had a blast playing, eating hotdogs and ice cream cones and watching Barbie movies. I have to say the first one was a success. ;)




Tupperware
Of course, I can't leave Ainsley out. She had a little bit of her own rite of passage this morning - she discovered the tupperware cabinet for the first time. Oh, Lord, our house is about to get messier!



We have had a fabulous summer and I can't believe it's almost over.

Love,
Brandon, Jennifer, Anneliese & Ainsley
