Spring has sprung!

Yesterday was 80 degrees and Myla spent a lot of the day outside playing in the dirt - which isn't hard to do since most of our backyard is dirt. And sand. She was pretty much a mess but loved every minute. She chased the dog, threw balls, poured sand in and out of her bucket and occasionally came inside because her hands were dirty and she needed to wash them. Which I thought was funny because she went right back out and got them dirty again. Its the thought that counts I guess. (Just for the record, she did NOT play in the dirt in the pretty dress you see in the picture. That would have been a stupid-mom move!)

Kinsley is definitely growing. I was holding her yesterday and was keenly aware of how long she is. She fluctuates between newborn and 0-3 months clothes - okay, so she's still tiny compared to some. She spent some time outside yesterday too and loved to look up. At the clouds, the airplanes or just the contrast in the light, I'm not sure. She's found her voice though, and has started talking a lot when she's awake.

Myla thinks Kinsley is pretty cool and has been a big helper. Her favorite thing to do this week is hold the bottle for Kinsley or give her the pacifier. And she's always saying "hello little sister" or "that's Kinsley." Sometimes she calls her honey or sweetie or sweetheart. It makes me smile every time.
