Summer 2011

I needed a blogging break! No promises that I am going to start posting again on a regular basis, but I didn't want the whole summer (I've got two weeks left)to go by without posting any pictures. So here ya go, our summer in pictures:

We did lots of dressing up

Hill had her first ballet recital

Daddy said Baylor needed to play dress up in something other than a princess costume

We loved playing at the lake with Ella and Gray
Daddy did some sitting on the dock with Bay (ha! did anyone else think that was as clever? oh, never mind)
Baylor played some front door peek a boo
Hill did lots of reading to her brother

We took lots of baths after long hot sticky days

Bay perfected the smolder
Hill wore her hair in pigtails
Baylor stayed scraped, bruised and eaten up by mosquitoes
and got just a little dirty
He had snack time every day with his "wubs"
Almost every afternoon was spent at the Hudlow Country Club
but sometimes an afternoon movie was necessary
Baylor got the whole pleasing daddy and Hill costume thing down
He also perfected eating Popsicles
Hill got her first big girl bicycle for her Very Happy Un-Birthday (long story)
We took the kids to a Barons game and they loved it (before Kyle made me leave with the kids after Hill spilled her drink on the guy below us)

One morning Hill threw a pancake onto the ceiling...

and it stuck

Then she colored on the TV with a blue crayon

Baylor did some toilet paper stacking
Aunt Claire got married
to Uncle Dan

Hill did lots of dancing
I recovered my dining room chairs

and painted my kitchen

We headed to the beach for a week


Played lots of ball


and lots more, but it just took me so long to post all these pictures, I don't think I'll blog again til next summer!
