Visit from Erin and Derek

 Erin and Derek came to visit for the weekend. 

 The girls wanted Erin to do their hair.


 All done!

 They both love Derek's dog, Peanut.  

 We had lunch at the park.

 Matt's friend, Chris, and his wife and little boy were also here from Utah this weekend so they came with us too.  They were visiting family in Rexburg, but took some time to hang out with us. 



 Rylee found a ladybug.

 Chris' son, Makua, and Ashlyn loved running up and down the hills.

 Rylee made friends with some kids at the park.

 Kaylie just slept the whole time.



 Ashlyn was so happy when Derek let her take Peanut for a walk.



 Ashlyn and Derek were best buds.

 The girls were so excited when Erin jumped with them.




We had such a great time when they were here.  Hopefully they can come again soon!

More Kaylie

Sweet sleeper.

 Watching her sisters at swimming lessons-one of the few places she's been.

 Watching TV with Ashlyn

All dressed up and nowhere to go!
I put her in a dress yesterday even though we didn't go to church 
(her dr. said not to take her for a month).  
She wasn't very happy when I took this picture.

2 Weeks

 I can't believe Kaylie is 2 weeks old already!  It doesn't seem like that long.  She went to the doctor yesterday and she is 8 pounds, 2 ounces.  So she's gained back to her birth weight and then some.  She is a great eater- it seems like she's eating ALL THE TIME!!! 
 I am not a big fan of these binkies- they are huge and not cute.  But it's the only one she would take.  Until Oma gave her some cute Minnie Mouse ones and now she likes those instead.  Thank goodness! 




 Grandpa 

 After I got out of the shower one day I heard Ashlyn singing.  She was making up her own songs, but they sounded really good.  And she even set up her own music stand.  She would turn the pages of her "music book" and tell me what the song was called.  And she would say as she was flipping, "I already did that one," and then turn to the next page.  It was so cute!! 

She loves to sing to Kaylie.  Her favorite is "You Are So Beautiful."  We recorded Little Rascals and she loves to watch it and that song is in it.  Ashlyn is such a good helper with the baby- she calms her down in the car by singing to her too.

I wore her out with all the picture taking.  
She loves to be on her tummy.
