Little Trouble-Finder

Gabi's Haircut
After Michael shaved his head to raise money for childhood cancer research, I cut my hair for Locks of Love. Ever since, Gabi has wanted to cut her hair short, too. So here is Gabi's new haircut:




Trouble-Finder
Annabelle is able to move around so well that she always seems to be finding trouble. Here she is pulling up to find all sorts of things that are more exciting than her toys.

Reaching over boxes of clothes to the windowsill


Bella to found this outlet cover on the windowsill


Pulling up on Gabi's kitchen


Bella playing with Gabi's kitchen toys


Annabelle opening the drawer


Pulling out the phone books and tearing the pages


Daddy Jungle Gym
When Daddy comes home from work and sits down to play with the girls, they love to climb on him as if he's a jungle gym.




Climbing the Slide
Annabelle is a climber. Not only can she climb stairs, but she loves to climb up the slide, too -- ALL the way up, by herself!







Gabi likes to hide in her "house" under the slide


Pool Party
We went swimming at Cousin Steven's house at the end of July with many family members and family-friends.

Bella grabbed a leaf when Lola walked by the tree


Annabelle did not want to meet Caitlin if that involved Mommy walking three feet away

Bella looks just like you, Melissa, especially with her hair pulled back!

Glad to see that Bella is a girl of my own heart...watch the video storage, you might find her pulling them all out then sitting in the middle of the pile! Or coloring on the wall or trying to ride her older sibling's bike.

Thanks for all the wonderful update Melissa...it's truly special to feel a part of your lives regardless of the distance.
