Chalkers.

The girls have a window of time from 6:45am until about 7:15am where they can play outside without bursting into flames from the Texas heat:

Randolph.

I have no idea how she comes up with names for her various art projects - but we are pleased to introduce you to Randolph, The Sock Puppet:

Isla :: July 2008

Crabby.

Isla's latest project:

Another One Bites the Dust.

Following in elle's footsteps - Isla crashes on the plane trip back to Texas:

A Rare Moment.

It took 3 years and 327 days - but we finally got elle to fall asleep in the car seat.

It turns out the recipe is to keep her up about 4 hours past her normal bedtime, have her swim for 3 hours each of those days in the heat, and have her sleep in a sleeping bag on the floor for 3 consecutive nights.

Airport Fun.

The Predator.

A quick trip to the grocery store (in Indiana) and elle discovered The Predator. Of course, she wanted to buy it so we could put the Mini in the back:

The 4th in Indiana.

Isla had to pack in some more deliciousness after she downed her Danish:

With Isla and elle off to 'school' for the day, Frog and Lovie entertain each other:

We made a lunch date for our first trip to Nau's - between the strawberry milkshake, cheeseburger, and a bag of Cheetos, it is safe to say that she has a new favorite restaurant:

Sunbather.

Pool Queen.

Father's Day 2007.

Looks like it is time to get the babysitter some spelling lessons:

Batty.

It is nearly impossible to explain how funny this picture really is, so I will just leave you with the facts.

This is elle's new pet bat, Clappy:

Ban de Soleil.

According to Isla, you can NEVER have on too much sunscreen:

Must Eat More Food.

Most people want another set of arms - Isla needs another mouth:

Monkey See, Monkey Do.
