Fun...

 Kiera trying an apricot for the first time...she was not a fan!

But she is super cute right now and every time we say "cheese" and/or pull out the camera--this is the face she gives us.  We love that smile!

We have had some fun get togethers with family this summer.  Can you find Jade in the picture below?

She loves to honk the horn and drive on the wheel that is up there.

 Kiera & Jade especially like to play with their cousins--here they are cooking something yummy to eat!

 Jade is getting very daring and adventurous lately and has discovered that she likes to climb on things.  She is getting very good at climbing this wall up to Grandpa's playhouse. In some ways I like this age she is at because she is able to do more things on her own, without me constantly hovering over her or worrying that she will fall. But it is also sad because it means she is not a toddler anymore--she is becoming quite the little girl with her own personality. This is great and I am excited for life ahead--but I am also sad that my baby is growing up so fast!
