jumpin.in.it

molly loves to jump in the pool. as soon as she splashes in the pool, she immediately starts back up...saying jump.in.it, like it is one word. she loves it!

Playdough

Molly and I made playdough...then we created a playdough necklace. After all, it is about the accesories!

Camping!

My childhood is filled with many many wonderful memories of family float trips. I jumped at the chance for Molly to experience a family camping trip, it was a bummer it was not everyone, but Grandma and Papa took the littles and myself. The Meisserts meet us at the river. The girls had a wonderful time! We played in the beautiful cool, clear river. Splashing about and skipping rocks. Grandma also made sure the girls had bubbles, tea parties and art supplies.
Molly loved waking up seeing her cousins, then the girls would run into grandma and papa's bedroom and hopped in bed with them, giggling as they climbed in. We also went the fish hatchery to feed the fish and went to the "waterfall" to watch the folks fish, along with a trip to the nature center.
I must admit i never know just how hard camping with a little one was. Sweet molly did everything she could to keep up with her cousins. This lead to many falls, and a few bumps and bruises. But she kept going! until she crashed in bed at night time.
We all had a wonderful trip~

Drum Circle

Tonight Molly and joined our friends at Loose Park to watch a drum circle. It certainly was interesting to say the least. :) here are some pictures, now that molly is potty trained we take a potty with us (would you take a toddler to a port-a-potty?) i adore the picture of her in the back of the car...

Final 2 party

Today was family party, and molly has been talking about it for days. She was so excited to see her cousins, they missed her actually birthday, as they were in Chicago. Auntie Carina was sick, so she missed it, and we missed her.
We had a fantastic time swimming, then pizza, presents and the pink cake!
I can not believe i did not get more pictures, i guess that happens when you are monkey wrangling. We love our birthday girl!

Baking girl

Molly has been baking with me since birth, or course she interacts now more then she used too. She wanted a pink strawberry cake for her birthday, so that is what we made.
