Fun with the Bathroom Mirror

When it's just me at home with the kids during the day, I have to get creative to get cute pictures of Sarah. She'll be all smiles until the camera comes out, and then she just stares blankly.

I tried a new tactic today. It wasn't all that successful, but it was lots of fun (especially for James)!

As soon as James heard me in the bathroom trying to get Sarah to smile, he came running and squealing, LOUDLY. He does this quite often, and it always scares Sarah, and she makes this face:

Then, James starting yelling, "Look! It's me! Look, mommy, it's me!" So, I had to take a picture of him, too:

Sarah is so beautiful.

And I love that smile!

It's been a while since I shared one of James' songs with you all. This is one of my favorite new ones he has learned recently. I wish he would sit still better! This was the best I could get on video.

Here's James at about the same age as Sarah now (just a few weeks older):

And here's Sarah:

Only difference is that James always thought it was hilarious when he did things like this, and Sarah was quite upset at the predicament she had gotten herself into.

Sarah reached a milestone this weekend. She rolled over for the first time! Paul missed the first time on Friday, but then he got to see her do it again on Saturday. And now, when I put her on her tummy she rolls over almost immediately. :) I was worried she wasn't going to roll over for a long time because we aren't too good about giving her tummy time, but apparently she hates it enough that she had the motivation to figure it out. Here's a little video of it.

September is just flying by. I can't believe how fast time is passing these days. At the end of this month Sarah will be 4 months old! It's insane.

She's sure cute, though!

Gotta love it!

This kid gets the best bed hair. Seriously. :)

I sure love my boy!
