One month old today!

Happy one month birthday to Violet!  Hard to believe.

Yawn.

Chomp.

First picture of the sisters on their chairs.

Toots

This sweet angel...

...is capable of quite the mess.  Daddy got taken down this time.

 We had a fun cousins lunch at Two Toots.

We also went to the boat regatta.  The Willis Tower was doomed.

 Uh oh.  Feeling kind of green.

 Finally, a fun night out with Kyle and Cole.  We love summer!

Random photo recap

Poor Violet spends quite a bit of time in her car seat.

Luckily she also spends quite a bit of time here.

Haley had her first play date with her new good friend Cecilia.

 Finally, a few sneak peeks of our family photo session.  More to come!

No further narrative necessary.

Pictures from Mommy's phone

First: Daddy's master plan.  The girls are now teaching and taking care of each other!

 The girls got Mommy on a technicality: when told they could choose anywhere for lunch, they chose Every Day's A Sundae.  Cotton candy confetti for Stephie, rainbow sherbet for Haley, with marshmallow topping, whipped cream, and rainbow sprinkles.  Yum.

 Sweet Violet.

 Luckily, Violet doesn't mind her stroller.

 Faux-hawk!

Play date with Ayla

First, this is Stephie's latest project: papering our windows with hand-drawn characters.  We're not sure why.

 Ayla came over for lunch and a play date.

 Sweet baby V got to hang out too!

Swimming success

First, maternity leave with Mommy = let's hit up the math!

We finally found a swim lesson situation that both of the girls enjoy.

 This is Tessa.  She is doing an awesome job teaching the girls!

 Also, can you believe that this sweet angel...

...is capable of a mess like this?

 Good thing she's so cute.
