From tan lines to first foods!

I just had to get a picture of this girl's tan line! The picture doesn't do the darkness of her skin justice! I can't believe how dark she has gotten this summer! She's our little indian girl!

 This is a dress the girls used to have matching outfits of when Lily was a baby. I can't believe she's fitting into Crystal's now. Where did my baby girl go? Seriously why do they grow up so fast?

Eating a treat, watching Care Bears, and playing my little ponies! 

These girls LOVE spaghetti with meatballs. And the meatballs are VERY important. It can't just be meat... it MUST be meatballs. lol. (I told Lily to say 'cheese' and this is the look I got as she said it. lol)

Ty's parents went to Japan for 3 months last year. They brought the girls back Japanese outfits for Christmas! While cleaning up their room the other day, they saw them in their closet and pulled them out. I got my phone out to take a picture, and they started POSING for the camera. lol. I have no idea where they came up with some of this stuff. lol. We had tons of fun snapping pics and laughing together! Good times!

She wanted to make sure everyone could SEE the big bow. lol.

 On Thursday we got to have a late birthday celebration with this girl right here! Julia's birthday was last weekend, so we decided we needed some Los Harmanos to celebrate! Love her! (J does too. She always holds him while she eats. Mommy's not that nice. lol.)

J was giving Julia kisses. I missed the best one. This is right afterwards. He kept trying to eat her neck. it was pretty funny. 

Forehead kisses.

If the girls are good while in Walmart, they get to go play in the game place before we leave. Usually that means sitting in the ice cream truck, the bert and ernie car, and/or the horse.

 Lily saw the hunting video game from across the room. She gasps and yells, "Mom, I wanna play the shooter game!" as she promptly runs over and pulls the gun out of the slot and started making shooting noises. I have no idea where she learns this stuff. She just makes me laugh. It was so heavy she could barely carry it. lol. 

J's first oatmeal (big thanks to Ty's cousin, Emily, who donated her left over boxes of oatmeal-and baby food- to us. I don't think I'll ever have to buy oatmeal again! lol) 

It took him a minute to figure out how to swallow it, and he's super messy. lol. But he likes it!
