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!

The babes are adorable! Be glad you don't have flour, sugar, rice, and wheat all in 6-gallon buckets in your pantry waiting to be eaten, dumped, and mixed. If you have a recipe that calls for unknown amounts of all of these, let me know!
ReplyDeleteNot sure what it is about little kids and sitting in dishwashers, but we can't do any dishes with the Coop around. That's crazy how many little girls are in your family! Sounds like fun times ahead.
ReplyDeleteYou're such a good mom :) It was nice to see you and I hope the race goes well this Saturday. I remember always wanting to try the flour while my mom was baking, and it never tasted as good as I was hoping :) What cute cousins! I guess you doubled the number in the past year and half. So fun!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun get-together! I can't believe how grown the kids are getting! And LE?! How is she already that old? She is so darling! I'm glad you found my blog so I could find yours! Yes, I do know Lindsay Jewel!!! She is so awesome. I love that girl. How do you know her?
