May, June, and July

Life is certainly barreling right along.

What's been happening in the last few months?

In May, Eden turned 5. I can't believe I have a little girl who isn't a toddler any more. She's so helpful (almost all the time) and mature and loves her little sisters (most of the time).

She loves to dress up in skirts and dresses and does her own hair and cares very much about what accessories to use each day.

She's learning to read and add and subtract and can count to 100 and fold laundry like a champion.

What can I say? I love her.

Then Kevin's sisters, Mairead and Claire, and Claire's little boy Benson came to for a visit. It was a fun-filled all-aunts-all-the-time fun fest!

I completely forgot to take 3-month-old photos of Jillian in May, so in June I made sure to take 4-month-old photos.

Then the 4th of July rolled around and we spent the day with our friends having a picnic at their house.

Jillian turned 5-months-old in July. She's scooching around, sitting up almost unassisted, and chewing on everything. She loves to be tickled, especially by Kevin's head.

I also gave her some solid foods this month. A little melon, egg yolks, watermelon, and apricot.

And finally a shot with Kevin and all his girls.

Have a great summer!
