The girls looked so cute one morning that I couldn't resist taking a picture of them together. Of major importance: Sophia has a small "ponytail" at the top of her head! (Yes, this is all the hair that she has -- after almost 4.5 years. Looking back at older pictures, Samantha's hair looked just like Sophia's does now -- lots of curls -- it's just that she looked like that at 2.5; not 4.5).

This kid is just drawn to puddles. It doesn't matter how small they are, he goes right for them. Every time.

At a parade downtown, Jack cheered, clapped and waved to every single float.

Jack loves the jeep and will find any excuse to use it. Hauling pinecones? Check.
Or just jumping on it to ride around in the front yard.
This jeep is more than 15 years old. It belonged to Steve's nephews and niece, and when they were too old for it, Steve kept it stored above his garage for years ... with the hope that his children would be able to use it one day. And all three of them have!
Jack even likes to sit in it with his cousin, Louie. (Jack is NOT allowed to drive with him in it yet, for obvious reasons!).

My little baker. The girl is just a natural in the kitchen.

One night, it started pouring after dinner. So what did we do? We all ran out into the front yard and played in the rain. All of us!
Jack was a little confused, but he sure loved it!

Sophia's last day of preschool at the Teddy Bear Den -- May 15, 2015. And she was wearing her absolute favorite shoes!
********************
I love these quiet moments when I catch the kids all playing "together." They may each be doing "their own thing," but they are doing it together.
Stacking blocks like a pro:

At random times, the girls like to pull out their workbooks and doing home "homework." I have plans to incorporate some extra learning lessons into our summer ...
********************
We often joke that Sophia is "Samantha's biggest cheerleader." She is so proud of her big sister and would do just about anything for her. On this particular day, she was so happy because Samantha was debuting in her classroom play. She was Goldilocks!
********************
Samantha's last day of 1st grade -- June 9, 2015. She is now officially a 2nd grader -- and she tells everyone that too!
