Precious Summer Days

Last month my niece and nephew, Rilyn and Landon, came and visited us for a few days. It was great to spend time with them. Whenever I lived in other states I missed so much being so far away! So it has been really good to get more time with them not that I live closer to them! We had gorgeous weather while they were here and got lots of time to play outside! It's amazing how much little ones love to be outside. I love seeing that!

Marie Gilliam | 11 months old

She tends to stand on top of her toes sometimes... 

Found herself a little nook down there. 

She's so silly! 

My girl loves music! Playing her little guitar.

Absolutely love this one! 

Look mommy! I found my nose! 

All-time favorite. Holding her dolls hand while watching TV.

Eating Can Be a Messy Job

Usually I keep Marie rather clean while she eats. There are certain foods that I choose not to let her eat herself because she just squeezes them in between her fingers and makes a big mess, however, sometimes I think she just needs a chance to learn what they are even if it has to result in a major bath time!

The other day I let Marie do this with Avocado and I had to share with you the fun we had!

Look at the curls this girl gets after her hair is washed!!
