Just because

Just because I haven't posted pics of the girls in a while and because I love the dress that Olivia is wearing.

I love it when...

I'm scheduled to go to work and I get a phone call at 5am telling me that I don't need to come in until 11, so then I get my running shoes on and go on 6 mile run in 60 degree weather in the month of July. awesome.

The 4th of July

Taking in the firework show on the National Mall with family was a great way to celebrate the 4th. Isabella enjoyed the lights and Olivia almost slept through it all (almost).

Isabella turns 2

Make a Smilebox slideshow

Isabella turns 2 July 2nd. We threw a party this past Saturday and she and her little friends had such a great time. The theme was all things water and at this age, they are obsessed with water, so it was a hit!

Bedtime

The girls looked so adorable tonight in their matching pajamas, I can't even stand it! We are having such a great time with my mom here. Isabella really loves her abuelita.

A Combo Celebration

We had a great weekend celebrating Father's Day and my B-day with Lytle and Darwin. Lytle made the most delicious tiramisu which has now become a birthday tradition, started by Jason (he makes an incredible one also) and Lytle and I did a bit of shopping on Saturday. We also made our way to Philly for dinner. It was a fun weekend filled with celebration and way too much great food. The leftover tiramisu is calling my name....hard to resist.

Almost 6 months

Where has the time gone? No really, where? I just can't believe that Olivia will be 6 months old next week. She's sitting up fairly well and to my pleasant surprise she loves to eat. I think she might be a bit more serious than Isabella. She smiles all of the time, but getting her to really laugh is tough. Isabella spends her day trying to get "baby" to laugh at her silliness, great for me because they entertain each other. In no time they'll be running around the house together.
