Toby, Nicole, Sophia and Ashlyn




Sophia's year of dance is finally over. She had her Recital the first weekend in June and she did wonderful! I was so proud of her...during her rehearsal she kind of kept looking around at the other girls, but the day of I thought she really shined. I think she was on her game because her best friend Chris came just to watch her dance. Thank you for all our family support that day...we really appreciate you joining us for her special day!
The pic above was taken at Sophia's class picnic on her last week of Preschool. Since then, we have been planning her the next step of her big girl life...kindergarten. We have been to orientation and registration and have received so much info it could make you head spin. I can't believe in a few short months my baby will start school.


Ashyn is getting to be my big girl. She can swing on a big girl swing all by herself and I can hardly believe in just a few short months my baby will be 2! It seems like only yesterday I was telling Sophia she would be a big sister. And yet here we are moving right along, rolling over turned into sitting up which turned into crawling which progressed into walking and now to the cutest run I have ever seen...it is a combination of skipping and running. Every time she starts to run I start to smile...I have caught Toby with the same smile as he watches her run around and I can only imagine he thinks the same as I...how did you get so cute and where has all the time gone?

I find pure happiness when the girls play nice together...those moments are few and far between. I am hoping they both get better as they get older... in the mean time I will deal with the hair pulling and screaming...here's to hoping for more happiness in my near future!
