4 month old Alice

Alice is 4 months old and is growing right along. In fact she's in the 97th percentile for height!  Maybe her Aunt Laura's genes are coming through!  No wonder all her 3-6 month sleepers are too short in the feet.
Alice rolls over so she can be on her tummy.  She loves to watch everybody.
Hanging out at a park with Daddy.
And she loves to help out in the kitchen in her Bumbo seat.
But baking is so exhausting...
Enjoying the beautiful Queensland autumn.
What a sweet girl, our Alice!

3 month old Alice

Alice is getting bigger and enjoys her elephant mat.
Smiley girl!
She also enjoys sitting up in the Bumbo seat and watching everyone run around.
Bridget is hitting some milestones herself!  We went to Yogurtland last week because she's potty trained!  Well done, Bridget!  
Bridget is such a funny girl.  We went to the grocery store the other day and while I was looking at pens she became very attached to a notebook.  So I let her get it.  
We went to Lilly's Beach over the weekend!  Why I love this beach so much is because you can drive right to the water.  You can imagine how much stuff we have to lug.  Beach umbrella, lunch, sand toys, boogie boards, oh and a baby.  This way we can just get it from the car.  You can only access this beach by 4 wheel drive and with a permit, so it's always pretty empty.  That day was the busiest we'd seen it, meaning there was one car way off in the distance on the left and another off in the distance on the right.  Our own private paradise!
The kids found dozens of tiny hermit crabs.Mike found a good sized one!  The kids had so much fun creating a hermit crab land.
Me and the littlies.  Nice helmet hair!
On May 4th we celebrated Star Wars Day!  May the fourth be with you.  We had some fun with the girls' hair.
I even created Yoda crackers for an after school snack, cuz I'm nerdy like that.  A snow pea, cream cheese and a cucumber on a Ritz.  Loved them the kids did.
