Our Two little Blessings

John and I were fixing last minute touch ups on the kitchen. We came in the living room to find our little ones playing.



Then we went to the Lowes to buy wooden blinds for the kitchen. Andrea entertained Charlie while we shopped.


Uncle Matt we hope you enjoy this video of your neice and nephew on your birthday.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

We're Cookin Together

Andrea helped me husk the corn for dinner. She kept saying, "You gotta RRRRIP it!" She pulled each leaf down and tossed it into the trash can. All of a suddent, she exclaims............................................................"OH CORN!"





Charlie helped too! Charlie was watching us and trying to walk over to the trash can in his walker to eat the bag. After a few minutes, Andrea went potty and I was helping her wash her hands. We came back to find this

On the Move

Here is Charlie's first attempt at scootin that I posted last week and with Charlie moving now he somehow managed to unpost it when he got to the keyboard.



I'll get him on video today so you can see all the progress he's making!

Too Many Choices!

What to choose? What to choose? At dinner this evening, we lined the condiments in a row and asked Annie the color of each of the sauces. To which she responded, "Red" (Ketchup), "Green" (Relish), and "Yellow" (Mustard). Next we asked her which color she wanted to which she responded "PURPLE!"

We had a good laugh.

Uncle Steve and Uncle Philip

My brothers got here yesterday. They've been making Annie laugh nonstop. I was bummed because I had book club last night (Best one yet...We laughed so hard the whole night that my stomache muscles actually felt sore when I got home), so I did not get to catch up with them when they first got here but they had a fun guys night. We went to IHOP this morning for a huge pancake platter breakfast. We took the kids to the park in the morning for a little while. The rest of the day, well into the evening, my brothers helped John sand down and restain the kitchen cabinets. They look amazing. I will post pics tomorrow!

A Day for the Mommies!

Today Gina and I got together so that we could have a day for ourselves. Sure we told the girls that we wanted them to play together but Gina and I knew in the back of our minds what was really happening. The girls got to color in coloring books and "TRADE" (haha) toys. They really did play well together and Emma was so patient with Annie as she is trying to figure out this sharing thing. We ate pizza and the girls enjoyed Einsteins. It was a great morning and now only a few more hours left in the afternoon till we can drop the kiddies on their daddies. Just kidding, well sort of.

Joe and Angela's Visit

We had a really great time with Joe and Angela. They are going to be great parents some day.
