I just want to get a decent picture of these girls together!

And what's new with Alexa?

Wow. She is eight months old. Could not escape the Accessorizer

Working on teeth and more teeth

getting into all kinds of things (stickers shown here)

another weird predicament...

I didn't hear anything from her for awhile, so I came to check and she was just chillin' with her head resting on this block.

Practicing sitting

That silly, drooly grin
watching herself on Uncle Brock's phone is hilarious

loves bathtime

sitting in her Bumbo seat

"Mommy, that's funny!"
"Mommy, you are HILARIOUS!"

Oh, those CHEEKS!

Don't you worry. They get squeezed on a regular basis.

A glimpse into Annika's life...

Playing with blocks...

Big towers...
Organizing blocks
(you can see her eyes crossing a lot here... we've since added bifocals to her glasses and that seems to help.)
the house that Annika and Mommy built

more organizing... seriously, I don't make this stuff up!

we may have a problem here. I would switch so the colors of the plate and cup were mismatching when she was not watching... she would immediately correct them.
"hold you"

What happens when Alexa gets too much attention from Daddy?

Annika crawls right in the middle of it. :)

helping Mommy in the kitchen: "Mix, mix, mix"

"Ouchie eyes."

Her eyes are sensitive to light, so she is not a big fan of the flash that comes with pictures.

"Pease, a-call Daddy."

So she chats with Daddy.

I love the obvious adoration.

More organizing.

"pease- fingers."

Our goofy girl.

What fun!
