growing up too fast!

 too grown up - Soph eyelash curler

Sophie loves to use my eyelash curler after I am done.  I really like it when she wants to be like me because lately she mostly wants to defy me and be naughty, so I savor these moments when she's my friend and side kick.

And she seemed so grown up the other day sitting at the table feeding herself chips and dip.  There's no denying my little girl is growing up!  She seems so big and smart, she amazes me everyday with her increasing knowledge and independence!  I love you Sophie.

conference Saturday - Tessa standing up BY HERSELF

Check it out!!  Tessa can stand BY HERSELF!!!!!!!!  She's a little uneasy about it, but she's doing it!  Ok, just kidding I photoshopped Dan's arm out of the picture.  But Tessa really is growing really fast as well.  Gotta love her in those 12-18 months size jeans... they fit her waist. :)  Her chubbs, noises, and skills seem to get more plentiful everyday!  I love you too Tessa.

whoa, that scared me for a minute! Your girls seem to grow up soo fast, I thought it was because I don't get to see them very often. I love the orange on Tessa and I love the 2 on the floor together, so sweet. I love that Tessa's chin is always wet. Sophie's hair is getting very long! She looks really old these days. Is she really just 2? I can't wait to see them in May!

It is SO true about them growing up so fast. You turn around and they're starting school when you thought they were still you little babies! Your girls are so beautiful and it's so much fun to see your pictures up here!

I love the look on Tessa's face in the standing-up photo! Priceless.....she obviously isn't ready to be standing on her own :) haha! Sophie is looking older, but she is the big sister now....what a darling pair of girls you have!

They are both so darling!!
I love the look on Tessa's face in the standing up picture. I think that is what really sells it! You look at it and think "NO WAY" HAHA!

You know, the more pictures I see of Tessa the more similarities I see in her and Sophie. Other than their coloring of course.
Tessa's eye color look almost identical to what Deklan's looked like when he was a baby.

They are both WAY too cute!!!

Ha! I was shocked to see Tessa standing... how funny. I was thinking, "Wow, she can really balance well if she can stand while leaning! :) You are so funny. I know I say it all the time, but YOUR GIRLS ARE SO CUTE!!!

Megan said...

So cute! That's funny Tessa standing. I think the two year olds are all about being naughty. They are SOO cute!

Emily said...

Such sweet pictures. I think Sophie is growing up fast too, and she's not even mine! :) The picture of Tessa standing is cool, too. I couldn't even see where you photo-shopped it :)
