Chalk skills and rolling practice / Week 26

Clara has really learned some fun things from preschool. One of them is playing with chalk! Before preschool, she always asked me to draw things for her... the alphabet, shapes, animals, anything, everything. This week, she has just blossomed with her chalk drawing! 


She draws all over the back patio, all sorts of shapes, and jumps from shape to shape.. it's adorable!

She's also has grown in her "coloring" abilities. This is a watercolor paper, but she took a pen and wanted to "color" the little boy and his shoes! She did pretty well, in my opinion :).

The other morning, Clara came in to see me while I was feeding Audrey. She brought daddy's book with her and started to read it :).


Then, I continued my morning with a selfie with the baby!

Clara wanted a selfie too! I love these faces she's making!


She's "petting" Audrey.

Audrey thinks Clara is the funnest and funniest person ever! I've been working on rolling with Audrey. She rolls great from her back to her belly, but won't go the other way. So I asked Clara to show her how to roll. Audrey just laughed and laughed and laughed while Clara rolled for her! They are such a cute pair of sisters!

We took a trip to a garden nursery to pick up some plants and I had Clara pose in front of their pumpkin display! She's saying "Cheese!"


Then daddy took her to the guitar store...


And to ride a little bike!

Audrey sits pretty well now! Such a big girl!

Here's daddy and Audrey at church on Sunday. She's raising her hands to the music!


And on our way back home, Super Daddy carrying both his girls!


We went straight from church to the aquarium, because Clara has been begging to go for a long time!

Daddy got his selfie with baby too :).


Also this week, I decided to see how Audrey would do sitting in our high chair.

She did great! Look at that proud smile!

So we tried the swings too :).


On Monday, Clara had a little bit of a rough day. Maybe we had too much fun over the weekend.

Look at that face :(.

Don't worry, she was happy not 20 minutes later :).

Ah, sweet sisters! How we love you both so much!

They held hands <3.

Grammy and Grampy reading with the girls!! Look at Clara's smile!

And both looking forward, sort of!


Clara wanted to read Audrey a book during picture time :). So sweet!

Happy sweet baby! Happy 26 weeks to you, and happy 26 weeks of big sisterhood to Clara! The two of you make our lives better in every way! Audrey is even sleeping through the night pretty consistently now a days, which is shocking for mommy. Clara didn't get close to sleeping through the night until she was closer to 10 months! We love you both so much!

Oh and this is mommy's new plant. She is very proud of it. It's called Trichostema Midnight Magic and I dragged all four of us to a garden nursery (with the pumpkin picture) just to get it! It's a native California flower/bush and when it's all grown up it's beautiful!
