My girls!

I dressed the girls in an outfit that matched, so (of course) I HAD to take a billion pictures to document their cuteness!!

My Hannah Banana

I can't believe my Hannah is 7 months old already! I know I say it all the time, but truly, the time goes by to fast. She is getting so big! She already scoots/rolls all over (not quite crawling) to get where she wants to go. She loves giving kisses, and will even say ma-ma-ma sometimes. She is such a gift.

Thank God for Mommy!

This month has been a hard one for the Anawski household! We have had one illness after another. Stomach bugs, ear infections, pink eye, strep throat, colds - you name it - we have had it! While we are very grateful for the health we have and that things are not life threatening - it has been a trial on the whole household to keep it together with one illness after another.

It has been especially hard on this Mommy. Even when I have been sick, I have been taking care of everyone else, and trying to keep it all together.

I am so lucky to have such an amazing Mommy, she realized that I was not doing well and came up this weekend to take care of me! She started out by taking me for a pedicure and some pampering at the salon. Than that night she let me go out with a friend for a relaxing dinner, while she took care of the kids and watched the kids while I (once again) spent a few hours in acute care. She let me sleep in Sunday morning an take a nap later in the day.

My girls are so lucky to have such an amazing Grandma that they love so much and I am so lucky to have a Mommy who still knows when this Mommy needs help!

fun at the park!

The weather has been really cool the last week - so we have spent a lot of time at the park instead of the pool. Just thought I would share a couple pictures of the girls outside enjoying the park with their cousin Keeley.

Cheeks!

Hannah is not lacking in the cute baby cheeks department! All though sadly they seem to be going away the older she gets! Grandma Cheryl got Hannah this super cute shirt and it says it all! Everywhere we go - people are trying to pinch and kiss those cheeks! Hannah loves it and always gets a big grin on her face when she gets cheek kisses!

More air show pics...

Blue Angels

Air Show!

This weekend we went to the Air Show. We packed a lunch and found a shaded spot and spent the afternoon watching amazing airplane acts. Of course, the favorite was the Blue Angels. Abby LOVED them, and did not take her eyes off the sky for almost an hour. Even when we where in between seeing planes, we had a blast just hanging out as a family outside in the beautiful weather.

playing outside!

Hannah loves to sit and watch her sister run around outside.
She will sit and play with the grass for a long time before she gets bored! It's so nice!

Sisters!

Hannah Faith 6 months - Abigail Grace 2 1/2 years

Summer fun!

One of Abby's favorite things to do this summer is play with her bubbles!!! She has bubble blowers in about every style (not spoiled at all!?!?) and can spend all day blowing bubbles. She was being such a good big sister and blowing bubbles for Hannah.

new princess scooter!!!!

Abby has wanted this princess scooter for a long time!!! Grandma Cheryl told her she would get it for her if she could get back on track with potty training (after a set back when she had a stomach bug). After doing good for the last couple weeks - Grandma Cheryl got her the scooter. She was so happy!

chopped it off!

I decided I was sick of wearing a pony tail everyday - so I got a hair cut and cut it all off! It wil take some time to get used to - I have never had it this short! I love it and look forward to how easy it is to style!

Good ole' Sioux Falls!

We have had some beautiful weather the last few days - in the mid 70's. We decided to go to the falls on Sunday. The girls loved being outside. Abby's favorite thing to do is ride her bike lately so she was in heaven - riding her bike and spending time with Mommy and Daddy.

Going to the ZOO...Zoo...zoo!

How about you, you, you...you can come too, too, too - where going to the zoo, zoo, zoo!!!
It was a perfect morning for the Zoo. Tiffani, Kairi, Abby, Hannah and I had a blast! The girls even rode the camel. I was almost in tears as she rode the camel, she is getting so big. Last summer, she screamed and cried when I tried to put her on a small pony ride. This summer, she is riding a camel and having a GREAT time! My little girl is growing up! Hannah spent most of the beautiful morning taking a nap in her stroller, enjoying the cool air on her toes as she was pushed around. It was a perfect day, spent with some really great friends.

Abby and Kairi!

Camel Rides!

Cousins!

It is so much fun to watch Abby with her cousins Keeley and Kira. They have so much fun and play so well together!
I am so happy to have family close by so that they can grow up together and be freinds for a long time!
