Story Time




Where's Hannah???

There she is!

Tonight after the girls had their bath, we had some fun in their room. They thought it was so funny to watch Scout in the backyard from their window. They also enjoyed playing peek a boo behind their curtains. We also practiced our walking/balancing skills and read a story (they sat still for one sentence).

On another note, the girls have been spending some time in "time out" at daycare. Although they love on each other most of the time, they have been biting and hitting each other recently. On many occasions, Hannah will steal Grace's toy and Grace's response is to crawl after her and bite her on the back. Hannah then hits Grace on the head and they both end up in tears. I tried running interference yesterday by tapping Grace on the lips and saying "no bite" and she bit my finger! I must say, those little teeth sure are sharp! I hope this "mean" phase is over soon. Unfortunately, having a twin sister myself and hearing "stories", I know this phase will repeat itself throughout the years. But, we both survived and are great sisters & friends and I know my girls will be too.

Happy Tuesday!

Happy Birthday Bridget!




Today we went to Bridget's first birthday party. We ate hot dogs, hamburgers, chips, fruit, cookies and of course, cake and ice cream. Hannah ate an entire cupcake by herself; she was a little hyper and would not take her nap. Oh well, it's the weekend!

The girls had a blast playing with Bridget's toys and watching the bigger kids. Grace especially loved playing with the toy cars - daddy calls her his little "grease monkey" (anyone who knows Brad knows that he loves working on cars, especially corvettes; he hopes that at least one of the girls will want to go with him to the car shop when they get older).

Happy 1st Birthday Bridget!

Rainy Saturday

Today daddy and the girls' got to spend some quality time together while I was at a convention for work. As usual, daddy grabbed the camera to snap some shots of the girls playing. It looks like they had a lot of fun while I was gone. Notice in the pictures that: the girls are feeding themselves now (most of the time), they make each other laugh a lot, and are starting to show their tempers.

Enjoy!

Laundry is so much FUN!

The girls (and Scout) occasionally help out with the laundry. As you can see, they think this is tons of fun! I hope they still think it's fun in a few years when they can really help!

Happy Birthday!






Today my twin sister and I turned 28! We had a cook out with family to celebrate. It's always fun when we all get together,but crazy with all of our kids running around. Of course we are partly to blame - of course they are all going to be running around after eating the icing off several cupcakes!

Hope everyone is doing well!

Happy 4th Birthday Morgan!






Today was Morgan's 4th birthday party and everyone had a blast! It was a princess party, so all of the girls were dressed up like princesses and the boys were dressed up as pirates. Hannah even got her picture taken with Cinderella, but Grace wanted nothing to do with her. I'm sure that will change as the girls get older and become fascinated with princesses.

Happy Birthday Princess Morgan!
