Saturday afternoon in the front yard
Our iris have bloomed to their peak right on schedule. They are extraordinarily beautiful this year.
Ally and Bryan took a short walk on Saturday. .I couldn’t resist chasing after them to capture a couple awesome shots. (I can picture a future scrapbook page now. . .one of these photos next to a photo of him walking her down the aisle. . how cute would THAT be?? **sniff** )
Nicholas and Ally played ball, did sidewalk chalk etc. too. It is really neat to see their relationship develop. . .Ally is really attached to her big brother 🙂
Ally’s toddler imagination has really been blossoming and keeping us highly entertained. She loves to pretend with her little kitchen, her dolls and her stuffed animals. Her vocabulary is slowly growing as well. She surprises us every couple of days with a new word or two. She loves to talk to her dolls . . . we have NO clue what she’s saying most of the time but we are able to occasionally pick out a word here and there. Her body language is what cracks us up more than anything. She’s very expressive and uses her face, hands, stance, and even voice inflection to communicate ‘whatever-it-is’ with her dolls etc. She was playing mini-mommy with one of her favorite dolls on her swing-set. She encouraged, cheered, loved, patted, shared her drink, said ‘sorry’ when the baby fell off the swing, insisted that the baby nap UNDER the swing (not sure why) and even scolded her baby (not sure what the baby did-LOL!) She even helped her baby take a trip (shove) down the slide.

Are Bryan and Ally really going for a walk, or is Bryan training Ally in surveillance?!
Love all the pics… too fun!
Hard to get her to use the 10 codes . . she still prefers “PUPPY!!” to 10-22 . . .
