Christians walking

Christian has finally decided her can walk. He started on Thur. The girls both started to walk at 14 months and so did Christian.  I guess that is just when my kids figure it out.   I love when babies start to walk.  I  love their little waddles.  Today we went to Enterprise and Christian just went right up the stairs and then figured out how to come down them. I was so surprised, it was a lot of work to get the girls to figure stairs out and it didn't happen until they were pretty comfortable walking.  Hes so dang cute!

Lauren and Tess

Lauren and Tess's usual Day

6am: Lauren is ready to go outside with Tess.  She wakes up and knocks on the back door till we let her out. (kinda like an indoor dog ready to go out in the morning :-)
7:30am Convince Lauren she has to come in and eat breakfast so we can take Aliyah to school.
8:20am Return from dropping Aliyah off at school, walk Tess with Lauren and Christian in stroller
9:00am Lauren and Tess do whatever it is that they do; lay in the grass together, dig in the sandbox, follow each other around, Lauren hand feeding Tess kernel by kernel, Lauren picking blossoms off the tree and Tess holding the branch down for her...who knows
10am Lauren must come in to eat and get ready for school
2pm Comes home from school, checks on Tess
3pm-7pm In and Out with Tess all evening

Do you think Lauren likes Tess at all.  Tess Loves Lauren too!

Tired

I guess my plan for putting Christian down for his nap right after I feed him his lunch won't work

Aliyahs 1st project

Today Aliyahs 1st school project was due.  She had to make a poster of a ocean animal, listing 5 facts and one picture,using her own handwriting.  We had fun making this, I often have to remind myself its HER project not mine and it should look like she did it. ( I always want to make it look perfect)

The Little Mermaid

On Labor Day we took the Aliyah and Lauren to see the Little Mermaid at Tuachan.  My Mom, Dad and brother Richard were able to go with us.  We had a blast.  The girls absolutely loved it.  Its really saying something to hold the attention of a 6yr old and 3 yr old for over 2 hours but when that 3 yr old is Lauren...Yep it was the awesome.

My girls love when Papa takes them to a show, he buys treats, mom and dad don't do that ($$) Lauren was so happy with her popcorn. Yes it was HERS, she did allow Daniel and I to have a couple handfuls but she pretty well ate 3/4 the bag.

During intermission Aliyah wanted to go up by the set, Ariels cove and take a pic, Grandma was nice enough to take her down and get her picture.

After Aliyah met most of the cast.  They all did an incredible job! It was fun to see them up close.  Lauren fell asleep at the end of the play so she was asleep during the photos but I don't think we could have got her to take any anyways.

King Triton

  It was a perfect night to see the play, the play was awesome, the temperature was perfect, the company was the best! and I was so glad we were able to share that with our girls.
This is by far the most incredible play/show I have ever been too!!  The special effects were awesome!!

When Mommys away Daddy takes them to play

My sweet husband understands how much my girls weekend to Swiss Days with my mom means to me, so he took Friday off work so I could go up north.  As a way to entertain the kids he took them to Jumpin Jacks.

  I thought that was so cute and brave of him.  Thanks Honey, I and the kids appreciated it!
