Anniversary berries

We've been enjoying the warm weather and recently celebrated our 5 year anniversary by going to the local strawberry farm. It was AMAZING...and Katie was in heaven. She picked her own berries (ate some along the way) and we all shared the most delicious homemade strawberry ice cream. You can see that Katie enjoyed herself by the sticky mess she made...






This is the child who used to hate anything sweet. Ice cream? YES PLEASE!


Emily also thought the farm was great. She's had strawberries in her baby food, but I'm not sure she is ready for the real thing yet. She probably would have bit into this berry if I got any closer. The berries were bright red and HUGE...you can sort of tell by the example below.




Emily also turned 7 months old, a few days before our anniversary. She is getting so big. She loves to eat and SMILE. No, she never closes her mouth. We think she is trying to catch flies with her mouth always hanging open. :)









The girls are having lots of fun together, now that Emily is starting to sit up and interact more. Here is Katie making Emily laugh...again.
