He rolls

Maddon rolls (both ways) all of the time.  He just always stops when I bring out the camera.  It took me like a month to catch him rolling belly to back.

Tickle time

Malaya is 6 years old!

Malaya had many days of celebration.  She was able to open 2 gifts on Jolie's birthday.

And then she had her actual birthday and opened family gifts.  Finally, she had her party and opened gifts from her friends.

 We are waiting for a toad to move in to this toad house.  He will be the fanciest toad in the neighborhood.  Thanks, Ma.

 Malaya had a mermaid party this year.  Each of the girls had a mermaid tale to wear and take home.

 We made bubbles and took them outside to blow them.  Pipe cleaners make great bubble wands!

 We made sea creature necklaces too!

Jolie is 4 years old!

Flowers from Uncle Keegan

 Thank you Eliana, Penn, and Wilhelm!

 Jolie had a "sleepover party".  The kids wore pajamas and brought stuffed animals.

 I'm the boss!

Maddon

Maddon does raspberries now.  There is a lot of drool going on.

That's my big boy.

Jolie holds Maddon's hand every time we are in the car.  On this day, they both fell asleep....holding hands.
