Are they the same?

Today Brielle wore one of Raegan's dresses that was my favorite for Raegan. I had Raegan's picture in it when she was the same age Brielle is now. I took pictures of Brielle today to see if there are any similarities. Let me know what you think. Can you tell who is who?

Brielle's bath

Brielle LOVES the tub. The minute she gets in she starts kicking and smiling. She balls up her fists and sticks her arms in the air and loves every minute of it.

Raegans talk

Tonight Raegan came in and said she had prepared a talk to give us. It was so funny that I had her give it again so we could get it on tape. Of course this one was totally different from the one she originally gave, but you get the idea. It scares me how much she pays attention to even when I don't think she is paying attention.

The other day in the pool her and Ryan were baptizing each other and then one day she was trying to give Logan a blessing. We tell her only boys can have the Priesthood, but that hasn't stopped her yet. She has a mind of her own!

Give me a kiss

Brielle does this thing with her lips now. She puckers up. It is so cute. She does it often when she is looking at an object like the dog and cat on her swing, winnie the pooh wall paper when she is getting changed, or the side of her carseat that has red and yellow writing. I caught a little bit on camera. It is cuter in real life.

(I think her eye is red because she was trying to poop.)

Beach day

Today we went to the beach. I left Brielle home with Jake and went with some friends. We had a great time. It started out overcast but after a while the sun came out and we had a great time. I wished we could have stayed all day. There were many jelly fish that washed up on the beach. They weren't stingy any more because I guess they were dead. I asked the lifeguard just to make sure. He said they were fine to play with. It was a good thing because Raegan had a ball getting them, washing them off and putting them in her bucket.

Raegan and Ryan

The Bumbo Chair

My mom bought us a bumbo chair (a chair that helps little ones sit up). I got it out to see what Brielle would do. She was a bobble head in it, but she liked it for a minute. Logan and Raegan liked it more. Logan thinks it is his new chair. He gets stuck in it everytime and I have to help get him out. You would think he would learn.....Hopefully the novelty of it will wear off soon.

My little angel

I just love how she sleeps. She puts both arms above her head. She is such a sweetie.

4th Weekend

Raegan the rocker!
Look at those cheeks!

Happy 4th! We had a busy but fun weekend. I had to plan our ward's 4th of July breakfast. A little stressful, but it went smoothly. We had breakfast, a few musical numbers, a slideshow presentation honoring the veterans in our ward. Then we had a parade for the kids. Our Patriarch was the grand marshal on his Harley. (What is more American than a Harley, right Dad?) Raegan was so excited for the parade since it was her first. She had been asking all week who would be in the front, how fast would they go? Where would the big kids be? She had a lot of fun decorating her bike and Logan had a lot of fun tearing the decorations off. That is why there are no decorations on his bike.
