July full of Randomness

Since we've been up to lots of little things these past few weeks but nothing overly exciting, here's a collection of random pictures from our July.

The mommy and baby deer I saw one morning in our backyard.

Now that Hazel is on the move it is not so easy to keep her occupied while I try to do things like blog. My solution was to put my baby in a box.

Luckily, she didn't seem to mind.

Could she BE any cuter?!

Here's a video of her boxed cuteness:

One morning Pepper helped me make a little banana and zucchini bread yumminess.

I've started taking the kids to Earth Fare again on Thursdays for kids eat free night. The other night a local day care was there and had set up a Lego table. Cody met us there and helped the kids with their buildings.

Hazel keeping it cool during dinner.

I can't decide if she reminds me more of Elton John or Ceelo Green.

Another Lego table was set up at the playground the other day.

Hazel working on her tan toes.

Just my girls hanging out...wearing pink hats...looking cute.

Yay for swings.

Morgan's new best buddy, Rykker, helping him build.

Every morning the kids and I go out to water the garden and to pick strawberries. So far we've been averaging two to four a morning. They are not always the biggest but they sure tast good. And the kids have a lot of fun hunting for them.

The tomatoes and peppers are starting to show up as well. This was taken a week or so ago. They are much bigger now but still green. Course, I'm not sure what colors they are suppossed to be but I'm pretty sure it's not green.

My darling girl feeding herself a little crunchie.

I love her little crossed feet.

The way she holds her toes while she eats just cracks me up.

Here's Morgan during his gymnastics class.

Thumbs up for fun!

Here's a video of Morgan in action:

I keep meaning to show pictures of our livingroom and how much it has changed. I'll get there eventually but for now here's a picture of our new chairs and end table from Ikea.

Still working on getting rid of the loveseat but here's a glimpse of the progress.

Little lady is working on her top two teeth. One is in and one is almost there.

Back at the very beginning of the month we went to the Nature Realm with our good friends the Pavkovs.
We were very excited as you can tell.

It was a hot day so we stuck to the shade.

We were going to go on a little hike but decided instead to go back to our place and play in the water.

These great friends also decided to leave us, but luckily this time they only moved about an hour away. Thank goodness, cause we really miss our friends lately. Anna was my partner in crime for last minute adventures and always up for anything. Good thing their families are in our ward so we will be forced to see them on a regular basis.

And finally, a little glimpse of sisterly love. Pepper is always asking to hold and carry Hazel. She just loves her little sister but now that Hazel is getting more feisty Pepper is having a hard time handling her. Also, every time Hazel eats, drools, spits up or does just about anything Pepper gags. Yep, she's got my gag reflex!
