"Ummm, Mom, you really stink at building a fort."

This week has been a busy week for us. Ben and I both started back at school, and he is working 12 hour shifts 5 days a week. Yuck! Luckily the weather has been really nice so Amelia and I have been playing a lot outside.
I did not have a lot of pictures to post so the ones I have are not the best.
Hopefully you will love them anyway!
Let me also add that I just walked in on my daughter using her little water bottle to draw on her Aqua doodle, rather than the designated pen. She is so creative, ha ha.
Now let me write a little about what she loves to do at the moment.
1. She loves to say, "oh no".
2. She loves to eat anything someone else has.
3. She loves to climb on me and anything else she thinks will work.
4. She loves to take sand and pour it on everything such as, pool, Frisbee, me...
5. She loves to get my eyeliner and "use" it
6. She loves the movie, "A Bug's Life".
7. She loves to watch Billy the Exterminator with me.
8. She loves to wrap her babies in her blanket.
9. She loves to go up and down stairs.
and finally...
10. She loves to stand at the bottom of the stairs and turn the light on and off.
Hope you enjoy!
Love - Us




These are the cool stick on chalkboard flowers my neighbor got her!

They were so easy to put on and are easy to clean off!

I tried to build her a fort today and it was not the greatest.



She did try to work with it though.

At first she tried to jump into from the couch. She found out quickly that was not what you were supposed to do.
Live and learn.



Pretty double rainbow!




Chillin' at Aunt Karen's!
She loved that chair and knew she had to put it at the end next to Emma.
Then she would just watch them play!





Goofy girls playing the Wii.
They are getting so old!







They all had me put pigtails in their hair so they would all match!







Ben and Amelia at the hotel getting ready to swim!








I never knew that a swimsuit and a laundry basket were so much fun!









It obviously makes a great seat to watch movies in!










And it doubles as a dance floor!
Wish I had video taped this one!
She was a dancing queen!











Go Amelia, go go go Amelia!!

Love, love the pigtails! I hope my grandkids have the imagination Amelia does - she can play with everyday things and it looks like she is having the best fun. She is so darn cute. The swimsuit is adorable!!! Aunt Stacy

It is so good that you make it to Manito often. The girls have such a good time together. Amelia tries to be like the bigger girls. She always seems to find something to occupy her time. What a creative little mind!

Did I get a text when you updated because if I did I definitely forgot!

Your daughter is hilarious! I can just picture her dancing in the laundry basket! Soooo cute!

And yes, those James girls are growing up too fast! It looks like they all have grown a foot since I saw them last!

Thanks for posting!
Love ya,
