Fireball

Reese has been a fireball this week when it comes to sleeping in the crib.  She has been avoiding bed time and always wants to be where the action is.  Last night I got her to sleep by crawling in the crib and laying with her.  The three nights before that she slept in our bed with us because it was impossible to get her down to sleep.  Ryan is our little sleeper and she goes down without any fuss.  We think Reese is just going through a phase, but we'll have to see how the next week goes.  I'm not doing well with the 'cry it out' method because I think it's going to emotionally scar her.

Busy bees

Boy, you two are busy bodies.  You've both been crawling all over the house for about one month now, since you were 6 months old.  You have kept us on our toes running after you.  You both love to stand on the edge of the sofa or any other stationary object (like the laundry basket below).  It seems you'll both be early walkers, but I'm in no rush for that day.  We're getting ready to go to San Diego this weekend for the fourth of July.  Your first 4th of July at the beach house.  It will be so fun for the whole family. 

 Little poser, Ryan.

 Reesie loves playing with the laundry basket.

Erica & Patrick's wedding

We had such a blast in San Diego for Erica & Patrick's wedding.  The girls were such little troopers and Dana's sister, Andie helped us out by babysitting them in the hotel room.  What a fun weekend we had!

Little cherubs

We are in San Diego for Erica & Patrick's wedding and we've made some pit stops along the way to visit family and friends.  Today we saw Gigi & Great Poppa.  The girls had fun climbing on their furniture and crawling around.  I caught some cute photos of Reese on Gigi's reading chair.

 Our sweet baby girl.

 Then we were back at the hotel getting ready for the wedding and I captured some shots of little RyRy.  Look at that face and those eyes.  She is such a doll.

 I love the crooked little smile.

Family bed

There's nothing better than napping with babies.  Today we were SO tired and daddy couldn't resist taking a photo of our family nap time.  Me, Maddie, & the girls.

 Then it was my turn to snap one of Cory & the girls.  They were SO happy and well rested :)

Swim lessons

Yes, we're probably crazy for putting our itty bitty babies in swim lessons, but we can't resist.  It's important to start early and the classes through the city are SO cheap.  Here we are at our first day of lessons.
