This was just not Cara's month :(

I don't know if you can see it, but she has a HUGE bump on her forehead!!!

I really wished the camrea didn't wash things out so badly!!!
She was twirling in the livingroom with her Daddy this morning, tripped over a pillow and cracked her skull on the coffee table. Ouch!!! It really does look pretty yucky!


Alex loves to pretend to read our books. He's such a goof!!

Dentist Day!

Cara had her very first dental appointment today. She did fantastic!!! They said she was one of the best two year olds they had seen :) She opened her mouth up wide for them and let them do a flouride treatment and everything. Woo hoo!!! She didn't, however, grasp the concept of taking just one toy from the treat chest. She loaded up with about ten! We had to (sadly) put 9 of them back, but they gave her some princess stickers and that made her feel better :)

The little booger

He gets up on things...like the coffee table...and can't get back down again. He does this with everything!!! What a goober!!

A Broken Toe

Cara totally broke her toe last night!! Our kitchen table bench fell over onto her foot. Poor little girl!! I had to take her to the ER and thankfully, the break wasn't further down on her foot, otherwise she would have had to have a cast. It only has to be taped. Yay!! We are now just working on keeping her immoble and pain free.

Cara and the Ipod

I uploaded a songlist just for her onto the ipod. She LOVES it! She can't sing worth a lick yet, but it's so defenitly cute when she tries :)

This is where she keeps it when she's not holding it.

She is such a goofball sometimes. She's back to putting everything in her mouth and chewing on it. I am not suer why as she has all of her teeth.....

Alex, trying to give Cara a hug. He doesn't quite hace the logistics of it all down yet.

This is blurry, but you can see all of his teeth he got....in one week....

I know, you all are surprised my kids have clothes on. It's finally cooled off a bit here. Only in the mid to high 80's now. We had a good two to three solid weeks of mid to high 90's. This makes for a very HOT apartment on the third floor with no air conditioning. I can't wait to get back to the states!!!!

Playdate!!

Cara and her bff Lukas. They love each other. It's cute :)

Alex was just wanting a picture too. He's so cute!

Cara's new bed

So I am finally getting a picture up of Cara's new bed. Her bedding is just cute, although you can't really see it too well here....

She super loves it :)

This is her new "camera" look. Oh joy....
Alex also loves Cara's new bed. He cannot, however, get back down by himself. This is his bump from falling off the top of the bed (up where her pillow is)....head first. I wish the camera didn't wash out the color so much in the picture! It's really a yucky swollen bump!!!

Just a few shots

Alex sleeping. So cute :)

Wondering why on earth I am taking pictures of him sleeping....
such a little cheeseball!!

Cara is getting so big!

Our Fourth of July

Blake and Alex watching the Fireworks

Cara's face during the whole thing (even when she fell asleep)

We had a nice fourth of July....on the third! Germany has quiet hours on Sunday's, so the base put on it's fireworks display last night. It was pretty :)

Cara totally fell asleep half way through it! It was so loud, I am not sure how she did it, but she did :)

Alex did okay. He was defenitly watching them with interest, however, he cried if they got too loud...and he wouldn't let Blake not hold him! He would cling tight if Blake even moved :)

It was a late night, but it was fun. The kids even slept in until 8 this morning!! Not to shabby for our last Fourth of July in Germany. I can't wait until next year!!
