BFF's

Jeremiah says he and Will are "BFF's" then he asks me if I know what BFF's means… oh man.

Jeremiah said that last year Will asked a magic 8 ball if they would be best friends and it said yes.  He says THAT is the reason they are BFF's now.

They are in Running Club together and they have reading together at school. And though they aren't in the same class this year they still spend all their free time together at recess.

Funniest part of these two? Their size difference. Will is almost a year older than Jeremiah (because J is one of the youngest in his grade) and I think he's about a 6 inches taller and a whole lot bigger than that skinny kid. They are the best of friends and I love it.

Sisters

I took some photos of the older girls a couple weeks ago in their holiday dresses I made for them. They looked SO cute! And I love these photos of both of them because it really captures their friendship and the dynamic between them. 

My mom tells me that my sister and I were never this close, so I have hope that their friendship will stay strong even as they get older and squabble about clothes and friends. :) One can always hope right?

Merry Christmas Everyone!

I took all the time to make these, but I don't think I'll get the time to print them and send them out, so for all of you we love (and still read this forsaken blog) Merry Christmas!

Halloween Preview

Just a couple of girls putting on costume make-up for a preschool halloween party!

Snow Day

It snowed 3 inches last night. Yep, middle of October and we're welcoming Winter with snow boots and mittens.  I'm re-creating their halloween costumes on my other blog today, trying to prepare for a very cold night of Trick or Treating.

Favorite new Game

The girls favorite new game is feeding Anna. Actually just one of them feeds her, the other uses my basting brush to paint her food onto her high chair tray. :) Enjoy!

 

Love Her

Love this baby. Her chubby cheeks are my favorite to kiss.

Little Spoons

Colette has a thing about the size of her utensils. Whenever I give her a spoon she insists on a smaller one. Yesterday this was her choice: with a variety of sizes!

 

Measuring spoons.

Alter Ego

Did you know that each of my children has an alter ego? It varies from day to day. But generally they rotate between:

Water Girl
Heart Girl
The Green Ninja
Captain America (most commonly Colette)
Diana (that's Wonder Woman, but my girls just call her Diana)
Batman
Bat Girl

This day I think they were both Tights Girl... with appropriate costumes.

 

Oh yeah, the girls got style!

Experiencing Technical Difficulties

So, our computer died. It's been 4 years I guess it was it's time to go. Lets have a moment of silence.....

Ok, now that thats over I can tell you the bad news, I can still blog on Greg's computer, but I can't upload any photos. :( sad, I know. Isn't that the entire reason to look a blogs is to quickly scan the photos and not read a word of the post? Ok, maybe thats just the way I read blogs.

Well, until we can save the money for a new computer, you get words, boring old it-takes-a-thousand-to-make-up-for-no-picture words.

Just so you all know, I'm doing well, my neck still hurts, and now I have to massage it every day... eeek. But I'm trying to be brave and just suck it up. Hopefully by the time we're up and running again I'll be able to post a new picture of myself and you won't even be able to see he scar!

Hey, a girl can dream right?
