I can't believe how big Talia is getting. She is almost 3! She got this bike last weekend, and she is absolutely in love with it! The first day she just scooted around and didn't really want to try the pedals, but she was content just to push herself around for hours.

We bring it inside for now, so it doesn't get really faded in the sun, and our dog doesn't try to chew on it, so she plays with it everyday all over our small house. I trip on it about 17 times daily because she has a tendency to put it right behind me when my back is turned. You can see it didn't take her very long to figure out the pedals.

I guess even princesses ride bikes (notice the shoes). She struggled a little with the pedals this day. :)

Here is my other big girl, who is 5 1/2 months old already! I can't believe it. Anyway, her new prize last weekend was this booster chair. She is still a little young for it and kind of tips over a little, that's why we have propped her up with the blanket. She loves sitting in this chair. I think she feels like such a big girl. Now she joins us at the table for breakfast and dinner at least.
I think she is going to be my good eater as you can see Talia in the corner crying because she doesn't want to eat her dinner.

Krissi is usually pretty intersted in what Talia is eating so I have to be careful Talia doesn't share just yet.

Krissi really like her rice cereal. I usually let her chew on the spoon when we are done, but sometimes she gags herself, so that's what the bottom picture is.

They grow up so fast, don't blink!

A couple of weeks ago, I was babysitting and wanted to do a fun project for the girls. I was already buying paint to work on a wooden dollhouse I found for Talia. So I bought these little face masks for $1 for the girls to paint. They all had such a good time. It was pretty cheap entertainment and everyone with kids can appreciate that! I know that's probably not what our recycle bin is supposed to be used for, but I didn't want to put them on the ground with our puppy running around.

Talia was so careful with each little stoke of paint. Her little paint plate was still real organized and hadn't mixed all the colors together.

Then here are a couple picture of their masks when they were all finished.
