August!

Look at me getting all caught up! Maybe I will even have Halloween posted in November?! These are just some highlights of things we did end of July and August!
The girls got their first purses! We went one night over to an outdoor shopping complex and they went in and picked them out, and then strutted all over the place with them!
It was ADORABLE!
Jake brought us home these flowers, Just Because!
We were all thrilled!

We took a fun trip down to Crown Center, we went to a Lego display and then outside to run through the fountains!

The girls with their cute friend Britt! Samantha is loving it!!


I guess this wasn't a fun hightlight, Poor Sadie! She got her first set of stitches! It is actually pretty comical now to think back to mine and Jake's reaction! This was our first big injury that we have dealt with as parents, and we were both a bit frantic at first! Sadie had climbed up into her booster seat up against the counter top bar and we are thinking she must have stood up and slipped and fell onto Samantha in her booster seat! All of the sudden she is hysterical and Jake runs over to comfort her, we sit her back in her chair and I look over and their is blood running down her shoulder!! She must have sideswiped the edge of the counter with her earlobe and it kind of severed it! Jake laughs at me for calling it severed, but I don't know how else to describe it! There was a big slit in her ear lobe!! So anyways off to the E.R. because of course it was at 9:00 on a Saturday night! It was kind of brutal having to watch her get the stitches! She was trying so hard to be brave! And it was adorable....Samantha started singing her songs to help her feel better! She ended up with 6 stitches, and I honestly think going to the Doctor to get them taken out was probably more traumatic for her than getting them in!!

Fun with friends at this cute little farm we have close by!
Sadie, Amelia, Samantha

The girls with their "boyfriend" Caleb!
We often get asked if these 3 are triplets?!

This was the girl's first parade! These are our cute friends Erika and Alyssa. They are so cute to Sadie and Samantha. And I just have to say in regard to my God Bless America comment earlier that the girls also associate Erika with God Bless America, so that is what they call her! They have just recently shortened it to America.

A fun trip down to Union Station! They have a big indoor train table!
The girls could have watched forever!

I just had to post this because if you can tell, the girls are drenched! We have a shopping complex by our house that has these big fountains, and the girls cannot help themselves! They start out just sticking their hands in it and within seconds they are soaked! They LOVE it!!

Don't you just hate to see your baby get hurt. Sounds like she was brave and so were you. Way to make it through that traumatic experience.

I can't believe how grown up your girls are. Katelyn would LOVE to play with them.
