Popsicles

Karly is teething and had a fever today, so we decided to try and see if a popsicle would help. Well, from the first picture you would think Karly really enjoyed it--but as you look at the next few pics, you'll see it was actually Bella enjoying the popsicle!

Is there anything cuter than a bare belly baby?!

This is Karly's "What's the big deal, Mom?!?" face.

"I'm a good sharer!"

Then, we had fun rinsing off in the faucet.

And, of course, Bella joined in and got a bath out of the whole thing!

Scottsdale Train Park

For our anniversary last week, Kelly took the day off and we took Karly to the Scottsdale Train Park. They have a carousel and train rides, a big train you can tour, a huge playground, and an ice cream parlor. We had such a fun time, although I think Karly liked the new people to look at more than the train and carousel!

Waiting for the train and playing on the steps--showing off for some strangers.

Sittin' on the train. It was sooo hot!


This was Karly's first time on a carousel. She was so funny...she didn't really smile, but didn't cry, either. She just kept saying "ooohhh" in a whisper. It was pretty cute!

Bella's Haircut

Last weekend, Kelly and I thought we would attempt to cut Bella's hair ourselves. It went pretty well--there are only a few places that look like a "hack job". I was a little sad because I loved my fluffball, but it's just too hot! Plus, she's still the cutest gremlin I've ever seen!

Fast Friends

Karly and Bella are becoming fast friends. They always have to know what the other is up to....the only problem is usually one wants to play when the other doesn't. But, overall they enjoy each other, and Kelly and I get a few laughs out of it in the meantime. We sure love our girls!

Bella trying to sleep while Karly wants to play...

Bella is so patient!

Bum biter!

This is Karly and Bella playing with chalk on the patio. There was more chalk on Bella's whiskers than on the actual pavement--but don't worry she didn't eat any (just sniffed), and it's non-toxic. :)

Sweet face

Karly trying to stick the chalk up the faucet, and of course Bella waiting for a taste.
