Twins- nothing more to say!

This is an outfit my sister Carrie bought her sweet little girl Anna for next summer so now Anna is going to get hand-me-downs of her own clothes. It looks cute on Avery thanks Carrie and Anna. Anna is pretty much going to get hooked up on clothes the rest of her life.

Yes that is Easton holding her drink for her. He does more for her than me!

Jammies and cowboy hat-- totally Avery.

Avery is all about the dress-up.

This picture is so great. Notice Easton getting a horsey ride in the background.

Too much Daddy! I love this photo.

Easton is so into going in the back yard to get blackberries to snack on or make something. He's getting to be a little foodie and he already like the idea of local and organic. He looks so cute with his boots and colander. He also likes to join me at the farmers market and sushi. What more could I ask for in a little boy!

Avery is loving the freedom to do what the other kids do at the park now that she is a walker!

Feeding the ducks at Seward Park. It is so beautiful there. Everytime we go I am reminded why I live in Seattle.

I had to post this photo because it is actually Easton taking a tumble. He falls SO much. I got him mid fall.

Cuteness!

Such a big shot.

This is so cute. Avery thinks everything is better when Easton is doing it. Singing to her, reading to her, or pushing her in the swing. The cutest is when he feeds her.

I just thought this was a cool puicture of their shadows on the swings. I was trying to get artsy.

The second we go outside Avery goes up the stairs finds a shovel and starts digging. It looks innocant enough from here.

I turned my back for less than 30 seconds and she just covered herself in dirt. This is her favorite thing in the world to do.

This picture doesn't truly show how dirty she is. This is even a new height for Avery.

Another day filled with many games of Cariboo.

It's so cute that the kids play together now.

Crazy Avery. And yes those are Easton's Thomas underware!

Amber took the kids for cupcakes this week (I know this from trying to get chocolate out of their clothes). I found these pictures on the camera yesterday by surprise. they must have been tasty.

I cracked up when I got to this one.

The cupcake carnage.

I think this picture of me with the kids is so cute.

Avery offically walked more than crawled yesterday. I almost cried when she walked to the car with the family.

We accidently came across an inflatable event this weekend too. We all had a blast. Lots of stuff for the kids. And the weather was beautiful.

It was so dead at the event there was no one in the inflateables and even Avery got a turn with Easton. She's getting to be a big shot.

At the block party Eston made a car out of a zucchini and raced it. It was sooo cute!

Easton needed a turn at the starting block.

Easton racing to get his zucchini as Avery cheers him on.

Avery made a little tutu at the block party. She likes pretty things.

Easton in front of his Elefun game he earned for filling up his potty chart.

I just like this photo from a picnic we went on about a month ago.

She looks so grown up here.

This is photo is all Avery. It captures her spirit so well.

The kids are so cute when they are at Avery's little kitchen.

This picture was taken during the fireworks on the fourth of July by someone else. We didn't know what Avery was doing during the shot until we got home. We got a good laugh out of this one.

Here is Easton and Kyle on the 4th.

When I looked at our thermostat and it said 98 degrees at 5 pm I knew it was hot in our house. Avery, Ripley, and I fought over the fan this afternoon while Easton napped in the cool basement.

One of my clients said I should send this to Parade magazine. The baby and the cat trying to keep cool.

She would climb in and out of this chair all day. She is so independant.

Here I waas crowding her space because I wanted in the fan too.

My little super model.

I just love this picture of her in Great Aunt Jan's chair.

We all needed to stay hydrated.

Easton beating the heat!

The only thing that get Avery out of the pool is snacks.

Easton lounging and Avery drinking from the sprinkler. This is a typlical pool day.

Easton can take pretend play a whole new direction in the pool.
