Following the Groningers: Ella, Ava, & Audrey....

I feel like I've been slacking on the taking pictures end of things... but I did get some taken in the last week or so at hummel park on one of our walks. Sooooo... Gavin showed me this new app for my IPhone that uses a GPS to track how far you go, how fast you go, how many calories you burn, and then stores it for you to look back at and it keeps a running total of your miles you've ran or walked. its pretty stinkin fun if you ask me, so in pure Megan-style... I get obsessed and try to use it as much as possible. The weather was permitting and Charlee was all about it as long as there was ample food, drink, suckers, and Bubble Guppies on the IPhone. She was shockingly an amazing workout buddy!! She let me push her all the way to Hummel and back. That is 7.5 miles from our house! Its so fun too. If I'm lucky I can time it around a possible nap and I'm good to go as long as its not too hot, then I get all worried she is sweating to death and that is no way to nap. Anyways, its the Nike app, you should get it. We don't always go that long, we have gone for short walks too. She still is excited when I ask her if she wants to go on a walk... so for now I'm still obsessed. Nina and Papaw have joined me on some walks... they leave their house and we leave ours and meet about half way and then we all walk back to Nina's. I love that all these places we go are on the trails. Plainfield trails rock!!!

This is at Hummel. I let her play and eat lunch before we walked back.

We had a play date that was long overdue... Tami was the host because her house is amazing!! This is Charlee thinking that its Christmas with all the new toys...

Miss Ella couldn't be cuter, She was just having a good' ol time letting me snap pictures of her. I forgot how easy little ones are to photograph. She just smiled and looked cute like it was her job. She is good at her job... look at her...

muah... kiss

"mom you still over there? this lady is taking pictures of me... is it okay?"

yeah, I'm cute...

There was NO way Charlee was going to pause for even a second for a smile in my direction, she is in full on play mode... I'll let it go

Sorry Tami... everything, and I mean Everything can be used as a teething device...

Charlee and Ella...
The only reason Charlee is kinda looking this way is because Emily was in on the Kodak moment.

Audrey is busy wee one who is hard to snap a picture of... especially with my camera that needed to adjust to every ray of sun that evening before finally taking the shot... slightly annoying because I need to snap pictures of moving objects if I'm going to get any good ones d*mn It!!
This was on the trampoline... and this girl had a killer seat-drop!!
