The Last Weeks of Summer

The past couple of weeks we have been so busy squeezing in as many fun things and play dates as we can.  And, of course we enjoyed spending quality time at home too!  School starts Monday for Lucy and I cannot believe Summer is almost over.
Lily is officially potty trained!  We did this last month, but I forgot to post!
This was the first time she got the toilet paper herself :)  She said "Is this enough, Mommy?"!
Lucy is always so sweet to share with Lily :)
I caught Lucy reading...love her little legs crossed!
 Sweet girls!
Lily LOVES to help Mommy and Daddy do "jobs"!  They were shredding papers.
Our painting day!
Their first day to BOTH go to gymnastics!
Lily's first day of gymnastics!
 Selfie with my sweet girls!
 The girls got to bring goldfish home from VBS!!!
 We went to the creek to let them go so that they could go live with their friends :)
We went to the Heights Aquatic Center in Richardson with Amy, Etta, Jill and Piper!
We have a new gymnastics mat at our house and the girls LOVE it!!!
 Getting our nails done!
 This little monkey loves to be held and would not let me put her down this morning!
Lucy has learned to take pics with my phone and captured this :)
 Pia took them shopping at the dance/gymnastics store to get new leotards and they just had to wear them that day!
 The girls went to "Camp Pia" the second week of August and had the best time!

Lucy is 5!

I cannot believe that it has been 5 years since I became a Mommy!  Lucy turned 5 on July 28 and we had such a fun day celebrating!  She is such a sweet, affectionate, funny, witty and compassionate little girl.  Lucy is a great big sister and a big helper!  She brightens our everyday!
