A busy June

June was busy too..preschool graduation, camping in Grafton and Cavalier, Dad was busy coaching track & field, busy working on the yard, and Lyla finally started walking.

We spent a lot of time outside in June, but it was the only rainy month we had, so we did have some inside

days. We sometimes stay in our jammies all morning!


May fun



May was a busy month, it was nice and hot! We spent everyday going to elmwood to play on the playground since our yard was still a mud hole. We went to Assiniboine Park to check out the new playground, and we went camping at Falcon Lake with the Peters Family.





The park was great, but it was really really hot, so one pic of each girl








Checkin out the chimes Grandpa hung outside their camper





The girls at the fire

Lyla is 1

Wow, does time ever fly. Lyla is now 1, well actually this post is late, so right now she is almost 13 months. What can we say about our little Lyla! She's not so little, she's got some chunky rolly poly legs, and quite a belly. She is very relaxed, loves to sit and play with all of my little toys. She has never really played much with the baby toys, I guess my stuff is a lot more interesting. She doesn't put much in her mouth, so she plays with me with kitchen, dollhouse, and strawberry shortcake stuff a lot. She has been a crazy fast crawler for a number of months already, but will refuse to push any push toys, she doesn't want to play on any of her riding toys either. This was up until 2 days ago, she suddenly decided that she would push her toy all around the bay, even baby strollers she was pushing around. Today she took about 2-3 steps about 5 times throughout the day before she got nervous and slowly bent down. A switch just suddenly went on I guess. We will be running after her at the next camping trip!
She is a great eater when she's not teething. She now has 12 teeth, all of her molars and she is working on some eye teeth. These days she won't eat a thing. She has been a great sleeper, bed at 7:30 and up just before 7 everyday exactly the same, and a 1-2 hour nap every day at noon. She is always smiling, clapping and singing. Loves to sing nursery rhymes and watch The Wiggles. The next year is only going to get more fun. We love you to pieces Lyla!!


Opening presents from Me, Lyla didn't get much because everything in our house is already pink, and we have enough toys and clothes we don't know what to do with.



We went to Auntie Lana's farm to celebrate the big day. We had lots of fun, we even got to see all the cows and their calves. And we played with Ozzy, hadn't seen her in a long time!


Lyla's new shades


Done opening presents, very pumped!


Cake time!! Lyla loves when we sing Happy Birthday! Thanks for the cake Ginny


 Yum



Playing with Ozzy, and playing ball



We had a little BBQ during the week for another party. Lyla was lovin it! Mom wasn't really on the ball, so Lyla got an angel food cake. Next year she'll get the big party and cake.


Opening more presents, no one had patience for Lyla though. She's has a bit of a different personality than the twins'!!

Easter

This year the Easter Bunny didn't bring much to our house. I don't know why, we got sooo much stuff at Grandma & Grandpa's, and Great Grandpa made his famous delivery. We couldn't figure out why he wouldn't have brought a ton of stuff to our place too!!? Mom had fun getting us all dressed up, and it was a beautiful day



Lyla with her first piggies


Another pic on the entrance steps...this 1 finally turned out great!


For some reason I said all week that I wanted face paint like a bunny for Easter, so that is what I got!


Searching for eggs and Grandma & Grandpas




We are toooo cute.



Checkin out what is all in those eggs


Lyla finally woke up from her nap and joined us in the egg hunt


yummy treats

hangin out

Here's some random pics from around the house. When there is the odd day that Lyla is not getting teeth, she loves to eat!! Cleaning up is the absolute worst..the floor needs to be mopped after every meal, and I don't think that my sister had ever not cried when being wiped when she's done eating. 




I love playing downstairs..so does Lyla. Dress up is usually my favorite. Here I was putting on a dance show for my stuffies.


The beautiful bright double rainbow


Watching TV in our chairs with our lala loopsies


Lyla already likes to copy everything that I do!


Playing musical instruments on my bed. Lyla loves playing in my room.
