August was an exciting month since we were leading up to our house closing. But due to hot weather, we also had some down time in the apartment. Here are some pictures from the month.
We mentioned before how Allie was sleeping under Rachel's crib before leaving Oklahoma. Well, her excitement for a really big bed faded after a little bit and she found comfort in another tight space - between the bed and the wall. She probably slept down there for more than half of the time we were living in the apartment.
Rachel improved her climbing skills. The apartment had a high table with tall chairs, as well as tall chairs for the bar. She quickly mastered climbing the chairs, though at times she would attempt it from the back, which didn't turn out so well. So instead of risking her getting hurt, we mostly had all of the chairs lying on the ground.
She also enjoyed climbing into these drawers with toys. The drawers are pretty beat up now. We'll have to invest in another storage system for the toys.
This day, Allie decided to nap on the bed - with her balloon. It was pretty cute.
Rachel still enjoyed eating and getting dirty while doing so.
We were going to go to the pool one day, so Allie got a head start at putting sunscreen on.
Both girls LOVE books. When we got this tote of books out of storage, they were ecstatic!
I got some cute pictures of Rachel.
Allie enjoys pretend play. She will pretend to be different animals, most often a dog or horse. One day she was pretending to be a dog and would bring a little soccer ball to me to throw. She would then fetch it. Rachel wanted to play, too, so she brought me a plastic holiday bowl (like for giving cookies). I'd throw the ball on one side and the bowl on the other. They'd both run after their item and bring it back to me in their mouth. It was pretty cute.
