flour power & 6 girls in 18 mo

LE and I having a great summer. We enjoy swimming, playing at the park and cooking together. LE loves to help out in the kitchen, especially when it comes to measuring and dumping. This morning we were making Zucchini bread. I turned for just a second and she dumped flour all over. And of course she had a taste!




Another day when I was making waffles she was helping load the dishes. There are two things on the door that shouldn't be there: a cup of flour, and LE.

We were getting ready for the blessing of the last of the "Sixlets." All six siblings in my family have had a baby girl within the last year and a half. We decided to take pictures of all the little ladies in their blessing dresses. I think LE's dress fits better now than when she was blessed. Her arms and neck are about the same thickness, she is just longer.
The Lake family came to the blessing, so LE had a chance to play with "Elephant", her cousin from Washington who is 4 days older. They are just getting their heads suck in non-regulation railings.
It was a great day at Wheeler Farm. LE liked the wagon ride and of course all the animals. It is a little gross when she tries to give them kisses.

There are 14 grand kids on this side of the family with one more on the way. There are only a few looking into space, crying, and no nose picking!
