These girls still love playing with Big Bear and they also love dressing up. They especially like to jump off the slide and land on him, which results in some pretty funny flying pictures.
These two had a lot of fun running around and rolling in the grass.
Grammy sent some water balloons in the mail and the girls loved having a water balloon fight outside on a hot August day.
Lucy got on a selfie kick for a while and asked to take them all the time.
These girls can be entertained by a laundry basket forever!
Claire loves her babies. And her pink car.
Right about the August time frame Claire started carrying around this Fancy Nancy purse EVERYWHERE! And it always had to have notebooks with paper, kid scissors, and this baby pacifier. Over the months, the contents changed here and there, but the purse carrying always remained.
We had a few movie nights where we would eat pizza while watching a movie. Sometimes homemade popcorn and fruit smoothies were involved, too. The girls loved this little tradition and often ask for it.
Speaking of selfie's, here is Lucy trying to take one of her and Claire...
...and here is the impending result. Not too shabby!
Bath time! Ryan would ask them if they thought they were in a spa and it made them laugh and continue to lay back and pretend like they were in a spa all the time.
This girl often GLOWS pink! This particular day she had pink shoes, pink pants, a pink sweatshirt, a pink bow, a pink shirt, and I think even pink socks. And a necklace and sunglasses to complete the look.
I was surprised that Lucy actually wanted to pull Claire around on this sled and not be the one pulled. She ran all around the yard for a while pulling Claire like this. Both girls were satisfied with their roles, but I do think Claire got the better end of the deal.
More outside play time! These two certainly have their moments, but life is so much more fun now that they are old enough to play together more. Claire legitimately tackled and pinned Lucy down.
Our garden really started taking over the lawn.
These gprincesses could go straight from their beds in the morning to running around outside. They love it!
New princess bags!
We went to Asher's birthday party and Lucy, Rachel Elder, and Hudson Neeley all had a blast going on all the bounce things together!
Ryan was out of town, the sister missionaries were coming over for dinner in a few minutes, and I had the house spotless. While I got something ready, in a matter of 30 seconds, the girls managed to take every box of toys and dump them all out in a big pile. Life with little kids...
The girls love to help their dad with whatever he is working on.
