The love of a child

I just went in to get Zoe from her nap. She was sitting in her bed with her children's Bible looking at the pictures. I asked her what she was doing and her response was, "I'm reading my Bible because I really love God." How precious.

6 months old!

How the time is flying. Where has the past half year gone to? Aspen is growing like a weed. At her appointment she weighed 16 lbs. 2 oz. and was 27 3/4 inches long. She's off the chart for her height and about the 50% mark for her weight.

So we started solids after her appointment. I can't find the picture from her first food, but here she is sporting peas I think.

And here's Zoe just being plain silly. She insisted on having a bow in her hair, then she put on the goofy hat.

Zoe's sandwich project. Wish I had a picture of what it looked like after she ate it. All the chocolate chips were gone, but the bread and peanut butter were still there. Fun stuff!

Valentine's Day

Here are a couple of pictures of the girls from Valentine's Day. Aspen enjoyed eating her new doll. :)

And Zoe liked her rubber stamps from Meemaw.

Happy smiley kiddos. :)

I think these pictures are from some time in February. Most of the snow had melted, but we still had a pile in a shady corner of the yard. So, since it was sunny and not too cold, Zoe and I ventured into the back yard. She had some toys that had been buried in the snow for the past month or so that we could now find, so she decided to build snow castles. Here she is filling her bucket with snow.

And here she is decorating each castle with a leaf flag.
