Our little artist!

Wouldn't you know...four years and three kids later it was bound to happen...wall art with good old non-washable markers. I usually only buy the washable and if something is not, it is put up far away and only used under strict supervision and while Nora is napping. Well, last week, Nora and Clara went to a play day and were sent home with some fun "color you own puzzle with the included markers" The girls took thier new prizes downstairs and away they colored. Nora decided to give it a try on the wall. When I tried to scrub it off, paint came with it. I have just left it. Not sure we will get around to painting over it, or just let it be part of the decor. Yesterday, Nora and I were heading up the steps and she pointed at her work and just started to laugh. Let's just hope she is laughing with me, not at me!

Weekend cuties!

Loving her popsicle!
Nora insisted on putting on her own shirt!

Gotta say, this is my first baby who loves tummy time! She rolls to her belly and will hang there for quite some time. She even started tucking and kicking her little legs!




Visiting Friends!

The girls had some photo ops with some visiting little ones! Presley and Mackenzie came over Friday, all decked out in the same watermelon outfits as the Lynch girls. We got a picture of the babies, the big girls were too busy! Lila also got a picture with some babes who came over to play on Friday. I know their mommies from high school. We also had a very quick and suprise visit from the Eddy's on thier way though Denver, heading back to California. Clara and Nora with Crosby Eddy

Four Months!


Miss Lila turned four months this past Sunday! She had her check up and of course she is perfect! She weighs 12 lbs, 7 1/2 oz (25th percentile) and is 24 1/2 inches long (52nd percentile) Looks like she is shaping up into a Lynch girl! Lila is such a wonderful baby! She is belly laughing now and almost always happy! She loves to suck her thumb, fist or arm, which ever she manages to get to her mouth! She is reaching for toys and really concentrates, trying to grab whatever is dangling in front of her. We are really enjoying her!

Happy Fourth!

Another fun Fourth of July BBQ! Of course the rain brought everybody inside. Luckily John and Leslie just finished their basement, so the kids had plenty of room to run around. We are so lucky to have such great friends to celebrate this day with! Some neighbors bought tons of fireworks so Brian and Clara went up the street for the show! Clara was an expert on everything, since the night before she got to hold sparklers at Papa and Grams! Nora even held one, under close supervision!

My three little fire crackers!





Mackenzie and Clara

There was a recent baby boom! Look at all of these cuties!

Playing on the floor!

Nora got into the face painting!

Clara just could not decide between the rainbows or unicorns, two of her favorites!



More Zoo!

This week, Uncle Nick joined in the zoo fun. It was HOT! We all had a good time! Luckily, I was off the hook with putting anyone on my shoulders!



Swim Lessons!

This summer we have been partaking in some fun swim lessons with my friend Abbie's son. Clara and Nora do the lesson with neighbor friends, Jake and Mackenzie. This kids have a ton of fun in the big pool with Nathan! Clara will go under water and is really getting the hang of it! Nora was not so sure about the big pool, but by the end was jumping in to me! Not surprised! After the lesson, the kids play in the little pool. We are all very worn out the end! Kick, kick, kick!
