The Freeman Family: June fun!

This is going to mostly be picture and videos! We've been busy the last month or so and our calendars are finally starting to clear up.

Playing hide and seek

Ainsley is changing so fast and becoming such a fun little girl! She loves to help us around the house. I can ask her to throw something away for me and she does it with such enthusiasm! It's the little things that make her happy.

Helping Mommy cook supper

Wiping off the table

She's been talking more and trying to string lots of words together. There are still times when I have no clue what she's saying, but most of the time I can figure out most of it.

Puzzle time with Papa Jim

Aunt Fer with the girls

I've tried taking the girls outside but the buffalo gnats are terrible and we usually end up coming back inside after 10 minutes. If Ainsley sees one of them outside (or a fly or any other flying bug), she'll wave her arm to shoo the bug away while saying "Go away bug". It comes out more like "No way bug"! You can hear it here.

Shoo-ing the bugs away

Ainsley has discovered boogers. She has also discovered how to put them in her mouth. She's going to love me one day! Here's a video of her digging for gold!

Here's a video of Ainsley telling you what Papa Bill says....if you talk to him on the phone, you can probably figure it out. Papa Bill says: "What?" Mommy and Daddy say: "Love you" and Ainsley says: "Waa-waa" like a baby!

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star is a song we hear at least 10 times a day now. Ainsley's favorite part to sing is the "Up above the world so high" part, and repeats it over and over. She loves to sing and hum, so it's rarely quiet in our house!

Still hasn't gone on the big girl potty, but she likes sitting on it and talking!

Cross eyes!

Ainsley has started loving her baby dolls. She'll walk around with one cradled in her arm with a bottle in the other hand. She tells me when her baby is hungry or when her baby has a poopy diaper. She then will have to get one of her diapers (which are the size of the doll) and "change" her baby's diaper. It's so cute to watch her be a Mommy to her dolls.

Ainsley can usually be found walking around the house in her click clack shoes. Her favorite are the Minnie Mouse ones that light up! She can even run in them, which I still can't believe because she can hardly run without shoes on without falling!

Hats are another favorite!

Lily just watches her big sister dress up, but it's not going to be long before she's right there with her fighting over a pair of shoes, or who gets to wear the big red hat!

I met Kathleen at the library one morning. They had an entertainer that played different instruments and sang songs with the kids. Ainsley didn't get too far from me, and wouldn't really participate in the songs. They were a little old for her, since it was a preschool program, but I think she still had fun! Lani made sure to show Ainsley around and how to work everything!

Painting in the bathtub is almost as fun as coloring! Here's a video of bath time fun!

Ainsley loves to lay down on the floor with Lily, and helps make tummy time more interesting for Lily. She has re-discovered her toy camera and likes to go around taking pictures of everything, including her favorite subject....her little sister!

Say "Cheese", Lily!

watching Lily on the monitor

Elisha brought the triplets over a few weeks ago and it was good to see her and the babies and visit for a few hours. I still don't know how she does it with three babies, but if anyone can do it, she can! The babies were so good the whole time they were here. It was fun to watch them together. The boys were laying on a blanket together and one kept hitting the other one that was asleep. It didn't even phase the one that was sleeping! Like Elisha said, they're all use to being close and touching/hitting/kicking each other.
