Father's Day at Sea World!

Natalia took her daddy to Sea World on Father's Day!
Here they are with Shamu! (I felt so bad for the guy in that suit. It was HOT!)


Daddy and daughter looking at the dolphins. They look alike, don't they?


WOW!


Natalia loved just hanging out with Daddy.


Later in the day, Uncle Dominic, Aunt Anna, and Jeremiah came to spend the rest of the day with us. Natalia and Jeremiah had a blast playing in the water.


And they somehow managed to squeeze themselves in a single-sized stroller so they could ride by each other.


It was a fun day!

Yum.

Now that Kira is semi-mobile, she's been picking up every little crumb or piece of lint off the floor and sticking it in her mouth. In honor of her newfound abilities, we broke out the puffies. She was excited and a little mystified that she was allowed to put these things in her mouth and mommy didn't try to dig them back out. Oh. And I totally think she looks like Nick in the last picture.

Aunt April's Beauty Salon

Well.........we did it. We've been talking about it for months, but we finally caved and decided to snip off Natalia's long, scraggly baby curls and turn her into a little girl. Aunt April did the honors. She's now sporting a short, snazzy 'do and we think it's just adorable. Don't worry, we are going to grow it back out again, but this time it will grow out evenly and all the same length so she won't look like a hillbilly anymore.

And after:
