Typical

Devin is always such the little helper. One day while I was changing her sheets, she decided to remove every book (about 30 board books) out of this basket and carry her sheet to the laundry room for me. The laundry basket just wasn't good enough for the task!

It looks like she got distracted along the way...

Cutie Patootie!

My mom commented to me the other day that I really needed to upload some new pictures so this post is just for her!

It has been quite hectic at home and work the last few weeks so my picture taking has been more limited and so has my blogging.

With potty training going on at our house, there have been a lot of cutie patootie butt shots lately!

Big T-Shirt

The other day while at my parent's house, Devin was drinking some water out of a normal cup and managed to spill it all over herself. Since we were going to shop a little, we decided to throw her clothes in the dryer. My mom found an old t-shirt to put on her in the meantime since they run all of their fans in the house at full blast!

It was really funny because the shirt was obviously way too big and Devin kept raising her arms in the air because it was so big. It just gave me a little chuckle!

Yogurt

When Devin goes to my parent's house, one of her favorite snacks there is some of my mom's yogurt. She is spoiled to death over there and she gets to sit on a stool to eat instead of in her chair.

In between bites she says Yummmmm

Oh the Mess

A few weekends ago when Jacob came over to play with Devin, I am pretty sure those two got out every toy we have! It really doesn't bother me to have a mess temporarily, especially if the kids are playing, but I do also like to get it all cleaned up eventually and they are both great clean up helpers. :)

Potty Training

We are in the midst of potty training and there have often been scenes of a streaking toddler in our home. Chris captured this one tonight at my mom's house and I just love it!

Little Lovebirds

For some reason anytime that Devin and Jacob get together, there always seems to be hugging, kissing and hand holding involved. We sure do think it's cute now, but I suspect as they get older, it won't be quite as amusing to us parent's!

They look so natural together, don't they?

I keep thinking of them at a middle school dance together only they are standing closer that we would like when that time comes. ha!

I promise, none of this behavior is prompted by us parent's. These two are just fast friends and seem to really like each other!

A Daddy's Love

Oh how Devin adores her daddy! She talks about him from the second she wakes up until the moment she goes to sleep. I just thought this little series with them on the couch was so sweet and shows their bond...

Park Days

Sissy and I were bored one afternoon and decided to take Devin for a quick trip to the neighborhood park. I saw it as a great opportunity to get a few pictures of my girls together!

That sissy is so attentive of her little Devin

Alphabet Soup

The other night while I was bathing Devin I noticed that she had put a different letter into each of the cups in the tub. I don't know why these little discoveries are cute to me, but they are! Alphabet soup anyone?

4th of July

As per our usual lately, we hosted a little gathering at our house for the 4th of July. There were a lot of the normal people missing which made it a smaller more intimate gathering, but we had a great time just the same!

Just a few pics from the day!

Edward and Devin. He is really coming around with her and is even holding her in a position that doesn't look like he might drop her soon.

I love this picture. Edward was pretending to grill, but he picked up the grill brush instead of the tongs. Isn't he funny?

Devin has just woken up from her nap and was a little shy at first so she sat with Gerry for awhile.
