Half a Year

Pure happiness is the smile of a six month old.  I really believe that the six month mark is my favorite baby stage, at least till we hit next month.  Quinn has the cutest and I mean cutest personality!!!  She is always smiling and just happy as can be.

Swimming

These 2 LOVE too SWIM!!  They ask everyday, and they spend hours outside before I have to make them come inside.  There is nothing better than summertime and water.  I LOVE that my kiddos love the water!!  If only they didn't have such translucent skin, it just doesn't mix to well with 95+ degree weather.  Aspen is kinda funny though and only likes to walk in and get her toes wet, she has a complete melt down if her face gets wet.  Koriann on the other hand puts her head in face 1st every time.  I am really loving the age of these 2 right now.  We are in a very good place.

 

 

Diggin' for worms

Koriann is obsessed with diggin' for worms!!  Like everyday she ask to go and dig for worms, she LOVES it.  She has no fear of holding worms and just laughs, she really  just thinks it's the best thing ever.  Aspen just like digging in the dirt but not for worms.

 

 

Neola 4th

Our 4th was different this year with Zeke having to work, BOOO!!!  But I braved the parade with all 3 by myself.  It went really well.  It 1st started out in the morning with the 5k run.  Which was the easiest run EVER, it's mostly down hill.  Then I came home and grabbed the kiddos and off to the parade we went.  It was nice and short and sweet.  The girls had fun and picked up just the right amount of candy.  Later that night we went to the rodeo last minute when Zeke got home, that was an experience.  Never have I seen bull fighter just run away and leave a rider to defend for themselves, but hay there is a 1st for everything!!  But it was fun and the girls enjoyed it.  Koriann was a hoot during the whole thing.

 

 

Twin Branding

We went down to Twin Springs and branded back in June.  We left the little ones with grandma and grandpa and just took Koriann with us.  It was a blast to just go with Koriann.  She really enjoyed the attention and being by herself.  Except at night she would always ask "Where's my Aspen and Baby Quinn?"  It was really sweet she just missed her sisters.  When ever we go to the ranch these 2 have the time of their lives and just kinda run wild. 

 

It was awesome that the miniature horse was white, cause all that Koriann talk about is having a white horse to ride.  She had a blast and seriously rode all day everyday.  We had to pry her off of Silvia the horse and make her eat and shower.  Koriann was not a happy camper when it came time to leave, she cried all the way home.  It's good that we can go back anytime or else we would be in trouble.
