Molly is FIVE

FIVE YEARS OLD! Molly is a firecracker. She makes me laugh every single day. Her sass and spunk far exceed her tiny frame and I adore it. She always has a handful of bugs and laughs as millipedes crawl up her arm. She wants to be a bug scientist and a nurse for babies and a doctor that helps people. She has a huge imagination and a big, big heart. Oh miss Molly, stay little forever!! I want to keep your high pitched little girl voice and ability to pronounce "r"! Our favorite quote for her is "Though she be but little, she is fierce!"

With so many people visiting, we headed up Blacksmith Fork Canyon and had a hot dog roast and birthday cake. It was relaxing and fun and so enjoyable. The perfect birthday!

August 2019-Cutie pictures of Grace, 8 months

Gracie in my old dress before church. 

She is delightful. She is sleeping through the night (I didn't even know this could exist before a year old!) and crawling everywhere, just started pulling herself up to things (but I pull her back down, stop growing!), and has to move her head and join every conversation-which makes feeding her really difficult. She loves food recently-as evidenced in church on Sunday. I was watching Russ to make sure he didn't snatch more than one piece of bread, started to pass the tray, she grabs two fistfuls before I even notice! She always gives a huge grin whenever you look at her and just spreads sunshine everywhere. I've rocked her to sleep a couple of times recently and she is just getting so big in my arms, it's killing me. She is our first kid to LOVE being thrown in the air and the higher the better. Add a raspberry at the end and she laughs out loud. She has the most intent stare and the other night she pushed my whole face away so she could keep staring at her cousins and watching them, haha. Her double chin is still my favorite. She really loves to splash in the tub. She is just the happiest, and we could not love her more! Ah Gracie girl, stay little forever!!!!!

Crazy Molly wants to always be the mama--and she loves her baby Gracie so so much! They are adorable!

Best friends forever!
