We got a fish!

I've been telling Kylie that we could get a fish. This week, we finally got one! Kylie picked out a red Beta fish at the pet store. She then chose a small fish bowl and some blue stones and shells for the bottom. Now we just need to decide on a name!

When we got home from the pet store, Kylie helped me put everything into the fish bowl. She was so excited to see her fish in the bowl on the table!!

Then she told me she was hungry and asked me to eat. I asked her what she wanted for lunch and she said she wanted to eat her fish... errrr.... :/

That afternoon, we decided to make a fish craft. Kylie LOVES painting!!

We have had a very busy week. The weather has been on/off nice or too cold, so on those warm days, we take full advantage and head outside! Kylie was playing in the yard while I was cooking dinner one evening and Ryan and I realized that she was on the sports court playing in the water... Trying to figure out what she was doing; bending over, standing back up, running around, bending over some more.... hmmm...

Turns out she was making water handprints all over! How cute :)

Here is a picture of happy Alexandra watching us eat dinner, and patiently waiting for her rice cereal!

After dinner, Allie was calmly playing in her jumper when Kylie came over to help :) Kylie loves to show Allie how to play with her toys, and she loves giving Allie hugs! Awww :) She squeezed a little too hard and Allie wasn't thrilled...

At the end of the week, Alexandra was a little sick. She wouldn't eat so I brought her in to see the doctor on Saturday. She either has a little virus, or a milk allergy (based on her symptoms). I'm hoping it's just a virus and not an allergy! Thankfully she already seems to be getting better. 

We were surprised to find out that Allie has gained 2 lbs in the last 5/6 weeks! She now weighs 18 lbs!!! And she is wearing 9 month clothes. She's super tall too, our big girl :) 

Despite not feeling well, she was still happy as could be and still loves playing on her playmat!
