Busy is an understatement of our last few weeks. We've had lots of long, full days filled with lots of family and fun. Uncle Jason and Auntie Sarah are visiting this month from Lebanon, so in addition to spending time with them, we've also had lots of grandparents in to visit.
 |
| Grandma and Grandpa Kerner came to visit from for a few days. Of course, trying to get a picture of 3 kids and 2 grandparents all looking at the camera can be a challenge---the best picture of course included Ainsley screaming ;-) |
 |
| Ainsley has been full of smiles and talking these days. Of course, as soon as I pull out the camera she stops! Here is one of my best attempts at catching a smile =) |
 |
Ainsley- 2 months old
Man, time is flying by!!! |
 |
Quick stats:
11 lbs 15.5 oz (She is my petite one! Ella and Aubrey were already 12 1/2lbs by this point)
Sleeping between 4-7 hour stretches at night (YAY!!)
Still wearing size 3 months clothes
Finally lets Daddy hold her for more than 5 minutes without screaming ;-)
Loved bunches and bunches!! |
 |
Aubrey's favorite phrase,
"I love my baby sister so so so so so so so much!!" |
 |
Twin babies ?!?
I can't believe how much Ainsley looks like Aubrey these days!
Top picture is Aubrey at about 7 weeks, bottom picture is Ainsley at 8 1/2 weeks |

Aubrey enjoying 4th of July fireworks.
She was not fond of any that made noise so she would cover her ears just in case mommy accidentally bought one that crackled or shrieked. Pop-its are always a hit, and since Aubrey couldn't throw them hard enough to pop...she did the next best thing, stomp them! Then there were lots of smiles with the sparklers =) |
 |
Ella was ready for the excitement of the fireworks!
Last year we missed fireworks due to church camp, and Ella was eager to make up for lost time ;-)
She was quite the dancer with her sparklers!! This year she was strong enough to throw the pop-its to make them pop, but still enjoyed stomping on them. (Unfortunately I didn't get very good pictures of that between her quickness and the setting sun.) |
 |
| Its these expressions of pure excitement that keep parents lighting money (aka fireworks) on fire year after year =) |
 |
| Ainsley was a great sport during all the fireworks. And since we wanted her away from the smoke, she provided Aubrey with a great place to stand when the fireworks got a little scary. |
On the 5th, we took off for our 1st camping trip of the season.
 |
| Ainsley did amazingly well for her 1st trip! |
 |
| Ella had her 1st kneeboarding experience and loved it! Uncle Ryan made it a little easier by starting her out up on the water on shore ;-) |
The weather was beautiful the entire weekend we were at the lake. But the downside to the nice sunny weather is having to stay in the shade with a newborn. Ainsley and I hung out at camp most of the time and Neal was busy with Ella and Aubrey...with both parents hands full, we didn't end up with many pictures ;(
 |
Ainsley- 10 weeks old
Today during tummy time, she got SO MAD that she rolled from her tummy to her back! She definitely has some strong legs and strong opinions....wonder where she gets that from?! |
 |
| Just too cute for words!! |
