The Big One and the Little One. The Bear and the Goose. No wonder Cara's nickname skills are above par for a three year old. (Once she coins a particularly nice new nickname variant for her little sister, she usually insists on exclusivity.)
Yes, she's three already! And Lucy is almost six months!
So what have we been up to? Lots of visits from family and lots of repeat visits to our favorite local haunts, plus a few new ones. |
|
Cara tells her cousin Sky exactly how to do the twisty slide. |
|
Cara really enjoys hikes, but she doesn't stay in the backpack long. Lucy didn't really get a good view... |
|
A whole mash of cousins down the tube slide. |
|
The sound of the surf, some shade, a nice cozy place to lay, and a cool beverage. |
|
We couldn't get her to move on from watching the waves from up high. |
|
I have a feeling Cara is going to request the beach often this summer... |
|
How did that happen? |
|
Grandpa gets some burps! |
|
Cara likes to play games now. Hi-Ho Cheerio with Grandma and Grandpa. She likes Uno too, but the shuffling is a bit sketchy... |
|
Cara is very cuddly with her sister and misses her when she takes her naps. |
|
Cara long ago mastered pumping by herself on the "big girl" swings. But she still likes to sample the "baby swings", especially if somebody pushes her "caddy wumpus". Or even does an underdog... |
|
We happened to be wandering by just as the keeper was letting a desert tortoise out for some sun after waking up from his hibernation. |
|
Very hands-on in the kitchen with Grandma. |
|
Gettin' artsy with the big easel in the backyard, gift from cousin Natalie. Cara calls it "my doodle". |
|
We checked out some flower fields with Nana. |
|
Lucy was pensive. |
|
Vrooooooooooom! |
|
Don't let the confused look fool you...she found her way through the sweet-pea maze with ease. She's holding the map, after all. |
|
One Bunny. |
|
Two smiles (three counting the shirt). |
|
Two Bunny. |
|
The big one at 5 months + 18 days. |
|
The little one at 5 months + 15 days. Same dental progress. |
