Lizzy and Jenny sing "Down Down Baby"

This is one of our favorite songs to sing together. I don't know why.

Hailey's Nap

Hailey just learned how to reach for items and hold them! Much to Lizzy and Jenny's delight, Hailey was able to play My Little Ponies with them. It was some game--it tired her out so much, Hailey fell asleep sitting up with her head propped against the pony's legs.

Golf and Tennis for Jake and Maia

Jake and Maia have been learning to swing clubs and racquets this week at a golf and tennis camp. Jake is going with his cousin, Jason, and Maia is going with her friend, Kylie.

On the first day of camp, Maia and Kylie both happened to show up in the very same shirt! They swear it was a coincidence . . .

Shopping with the little girls

Lizzy, Jenny, Hailey, and I were in Nordstrom a couple of weeks ago. I was browsing by the shoes and turned around to see Jenny trying on a really expensive pair. Then Lizzy got in on the game. They marched around in their shoes but took the time to pose for me. Thanks, girls!

What happens when you potty train Jenny . . .

Time to buy some more toilet paper :).

Lizzy in the Hannah Anderson Catalog

Lizzy's stint in the entertainment field was extremely brief (remember how she decided not to go into the Cheerios audition after I drove her up there for 2 1/2 hours?). But, she got a catalog spread out of it! She's the cutie pie in the pigtails and blue shirt.

Now Lizzy can always look back on her modeling days!

I need some advice . . .

A couple of months ago, you were kind enough to send me questions for a communication advice column. I have spent the past little while designing the website and answering the questions. I'm on one site but am getting ready to submit a proposal to the Orange County Register. I was wondering if you might be willing to give me some feedback?

If you're willing, go to amyosmondcook.com and click on the tab "conundrums." That's where the communication advice column comes up.

Thank you in advance for anyone who would be willing--I would really appreciate it!
