I'm not sure where they get their energy from, but the days are long and exhausting and naps keep getting shorter & shorter! The laughter and giggles keep me going. Here are some outdoor shots taken a few weeks ago but found when I cleaned off my camera!
Starting line...
Finish line...
Our favorite triplets and the girls--poor Harry!
Lilly, looking for attention
Addy cruisin'around in the hand-me-down jeep from our neighbors!
Lilly giggles as she pours water over everyone's feet and thinks it's hilarious!
Mastering the "big kid" playground at a very young age....
Fill it up...dump it out....repeat...
Addy, just hanging out with her "twwwwiiiiiiinnnnnnn friends"
Lilly looking as cute as ever....
I told you it was a tough life!
Raising daughters won't always be this easy, but these girls learned a valuable lesson very early in life.....rainy days look better if you're wearing really cute shoes...
We are on day 3 of gloom & rain in Indy this week...
Lilly, quick to tell me that she couldn't get her hair wet--"It be ruined mommy"
Oh, my Addy, those eyes melt your mama's heart
Lilly giving me her 'up-to-no-good' look
"Mom, I see one, two, three, four, million WOOOORRRRMMMS"-Addy
My rainy days are better when I'm hanging with this pair!
From the local splash park, to backyard fun, to the boat on Lake Tippecanoe, these girls LOVE the water. And, if you know Indiana, IT IS HOT--so this is a great way to get lots of energy out of them and cool them down. We are frequently woken up in the mornings to our chatterboxes on the monitor..."ool", "outsiiiiiide", "oat ride". I tell you, not even 2 yet, and they know exactly how to tell you what they want.
Sisterly love..."I'll go, if you go."...."Let's just go together."
Buckets of any kind + water = fun
If only we all could be so confident in our bathing suits...
Addy...a bit more interested in watching the big kids...
"If only I was taller..."
"Don't worry Grandpa, I'll help navigate this ship."--Lilly, a born seawoman
Addy, happier hanging out with our friend Teague, doing what she does best...looking beautiful!
"COLD MAMA-COLD"
She didn't believe her sister and thought she'd try it out for herself...
And after a long day on the boat, Lilly did what any sensible 2 year old would do...Another fun week at the Ash house. This is such a fun age! Addy's crawling (well, right now it looks like part army crawl, part inch worm, but she's moving forward on her belly and I think that counts). Ms. Lilly surprised us both on Saturday while we were driving, she blurted "Da Da." It was clear as anything and it was very cool that Jeremy and I were both with her (there was a witness!). She proceeded on blabbing it most of the weekend in a way that really said to Addy, "Look what I can do that you can't." Otherwise, we spent the weekend doing laundry, yardwork, vacumning, grocery shopping, cooking, etc. It felt like a lot of family quality time, but was absolutely perfect. 
"Oh my god, that's the best news I've heard since Aunt Cat told me they made Juicy sweatsuits for babies."--Lilly
"If I try really hard to stare at the camera, maybe she'll get that thing out of my face"--Addy
The shirt says it all... (Lilly)
"Seriously?"--Addy
