My Little Swimmers/Summer School Girls

After both girls got well, we have been swimming almost daily.  The girls LOVE being in the water.  Lucy is swimming so good!  Poor girl...now she has swimmer's ear and can't swim for a week :(.  Lily is getting closer to swimming on her own everyday. She keeps saying, "I want to swim by myself like Sissy!"

Modeling their new goggles!

My goggled crew!

They love playing on their noodles

LoVe my Lucy Girl!

AND of course my Lily Poo too!

Here are a few videos of the girls swimming.  

The first 2 are Lucy

Here they both are at swimming lessons.
(Lily first, then Lucy)

We loved having Ivy over to swim the other day!

Our tired girls

First they had popsicles, then fake ice cream

We went to see Monster's U last Friday!  It was Lily's first movie.  The girls did pretty good-they just talked out loud some...oh well...it is a kids movie :)

The girls had their first day of summer school on Tuesday.  They will be going 1 day a week.  Lucy had a blast!  This was Lily first school experience and she did pretty good.  She didn't cry at drop-off, and I called to check on her and they said she was happy.  Then at nap time, they said she started crying and wouldn't nap (Lucy has never napped at school either). I was so anxious to pick them up and went to get Lily first...a teacher was holding her and she was crying :(  Once I held her for a bit and we went to pick up Lucy, she was fine!  When asked if she wants to go to school again she says "yes".

Sweet girls watching TV until time to go to school.

Lily loves buckles :)

Lily was so proud of her art she made at school!

I could not love these 2 any more!!!

Lily's 2 Year Checkup

Lily had her 2 year checkup a couple of weeks ago!  Dr. Bacsik was so impressed with how much she could talk and answer the questions that she asked her.  She got all of them correct except for answering that Daddy was a girl instead of a boy :).  She had to get one shot and she didn't even cry.  They let her sit in my lap and Lucy held her hand, which I know helped!  She weighs 30 pounds (85%) and is 37 inches tall (>97%)...she has never been on a chart for height!  I love my tall girls :).  

My favorite things that Lily is saying/doing lately:

-"I like your pretty necklace, Mommy."-she compliments me, mom and Lucy all the time about our jewelry, clothes and shoes :)

-"Can I have chocolate milk please?"  That is her drink of choice other than water these days.  She loves to ask "Can I...?" all day long!

-She loves to skip, dance, read books with Mommy, swim and of course playing with Lucy!

-She says I love you Sissy to Lucy...melts my heart.  AND calls her sweetie and sweetheart :)

-She is sooooo animated and expressive over anything new or fun.

My happy 2 year old girl!

 Lucy just had to get in the picture too

Headed to the doctor

Waiting on Dr. Bacsik

Lily has been saying her full name for a while, but I just now caught it on camera!

Father's Day and More

We had a fun Father's Day swimming and relaxing!  I am so blessed to have such a wonderful husband and Daddy to my girls.  We haven't been doing too much the past 2 weeks because both girls have been sick.  Lucy had a double ear infection and Lily has had a yucky virus and is getting her last 2 teeth (bottom molars) :(  I hate having sick babies, but we sure have had lots of snuggle time!

Daddy and his girls :)

The Hirsbrunner's came over to swim and have lunch on Father's Day!

Here are the kiddos before swimming

Jumping time after swimming :)

After naps we made pretzels with Daddy

Are they done yet???

The final product

Yumm...

They always want Mommy to jump with them :)

The girls have been playing school together lately...so cute.  Reading books...

 Playing cards

Then they have been turning into the"Boogie Monster" with their boogie legs!

Lily loved helping Daddy on the ladder the other day

Splash park fun with Bowen and Grant last week

Lily was sad and Lucy was being such a sweet sister

Thanks to Pia and Grandaddy we have been doing lots of jumping and sliding in our entry way!

Last Saturday night we went to dinner at Pluckers in Plano and met our Frisco playgroup friends!
Lucy, Madi and Cason

And I forgot to mention that two of my best friends celebrated big birthdays recently.  We had so much fun at their parties!
