I have said many times over the last few weeks that I wish there were about four more hours in every day!!  It seems that I don't have time to do anything, but I do manage to get the important things done.  I got my excuse out of the way as to why it has been so long since I have posted, so here are a few pictures of the important things: 

We have been soaking up the hot summer sun.  It doesn't feel any hotter than it usually does in the summer here, but it seems like it got hot a wee bit earlier!! 

The girls have been enjoying the swimming pool as often as they can talk their momma into taking them down there.  (I still have not taken Molly in the pool yet.)  I know it is coming soon.  I just don't know how she will react.  She does like to sit and watch the girls splash around though. 

Molly will be 6 months old next week.  She is still such a good baby.  She is so easy going.  She has learned to make the cutest little raspberry sound that is not so cute when she is eating baby food. 

Sophie found out what teacher she got for first grade and is ready to start back to school now.  Sadie is still enjoying her summer and is not as anxious.  She is missing friends that she doesn't get to see regularly, but has stayed very busy this summer.  With only about a month left, they are trying to get in everything they can.

We sat down and wrote out a list of fun things to do this summer.  I initiated this because I wanted to take the girls somewhere fun and special before school started.  I made the list and let the girls alternate ideas from 1 to 20.  It ranged from Sophie wanting to clean the house or go to the zoo to Sadie wanting go to Vegas or go camping.  After the list was complete we went over it together and discussed each of their choices.  After I assured Sophie that she could clean the house every day until school starts and I assured Sadie that she is not going to Vegas any time soon, we settled on two choices that I would then pick.                                   Destination:  SeaWorld
