Home at last

Well, it's been a while since I blogged last. What a great time we had in Texas! I am exhausted trying to unpack and clean the house- it's crazy how the house can still get dirty even when you're not here. We have some friends coming up next week for their vacation so we want to have the house clean for them.

I've tried to take some pictures while we've been home. Yesterday, Kent stayed at home and worked. It was SO nice to have him here! Man I wish he could work from home everyday :) Kensley was all about daddy yesterday. After her nap, Kent took her with him to go grab some things at the grocery store. When she got back, our neighbors gave her a birthday gift. *Thanks girls!* Kensley is enjoying it :)

*Also, notice her Dora backpack for school! It has wheels- she loves it! She had to walk by the cart in Target while she rolled it behind her. Too cute.

While unpacking, Kallie has had fun playing on the floor. It's so crazy how much she's changed since we left. It's like we left home with an infant and came home with a big girl! When we left, I couldn't put her on the floor (she was still in the phase where she didn't want to be laying on her back. at all.) Now she rolls over, sits up and enjoys playing on the floor with Kensley. 

Here she is- having a blast!

Here's miss Kensley getting in on the action. She looks tired here!

So-- after going through the girls' drawers and closet, I found that I had to start putting things away to make room for fall stuff. Kallie outgrew EVERYTHING in her drawers. It was a little overwhelming. Here's the pile of clothes from the drawer:

And I went through a drawer that had shoes in it. They were Kensley's old shoes. Again, I'm a little overwhelmed! Kallie has never even worn shoes before! haha

Last night we were able to grill chicken and have a healthy meal! I love all my mom's cooking, but it's nice to get away from all the sweet temptations there for a while! (it's nice to go there and eat sweets though) ;)

Our first meal at home- yummy!

And here were my helpers:

Kallie is OOF- oops- forgot to change my f/stop. :/ Too bad, because I liked this picture! Kensley is FINALLY smiling!

She was eating her "sickle" here

Kallie ended up taking a nap while we ate. This is what I walked in to find when she woke up. 

Such a happy girl!

And to end this blog.... Kent had the girls in the bed lastnight before bedtime while I was in their rooms trying to pick up clothes that were EVERYWHERE. He called me to come in there. Kensley was being so sweet to Kallie and Kallie was just eating it up. They are so much fun!
