Driving Mommy's Car

Clever girls!

Backyard Retreat

Make It Monday: Butterflies

We made butterflies from paper plates and plastic spoons.

Playing "Clothes-y"

Winnie is 2 1/2 Years Old!

Winnie is now 2 1/2 years old, and she's the perfect blend of sweet and silly. The other night we were praying for others, and she ended with an "Amen, Dookie." (Her synonym for "poopy")

Big 'Ole Zucchini!

Picnic at the Park

Today we enjoyed the beautiful day by having a picnic at Smith Park. Winnie pointed to some goal posts a couple of times and told me, "They're upside down, Mommy." I guess she's going to understand football about as well as I do.

Make It Monday: Stand-Up Princesses

The 4 P's

Saturday evening was sponsored in part by the letter P: pillow fights, playing doctor, paper airplanes and puppy chow.

Saturday Morning Treat

On Saturday the girls picked out doughnuts, and I enjoyed my favorite coffee. Kitster asked Winnie, "Will you love me for ever and ever?" Winnie thought about it and replied, "Mmm, after naps."

Cheetos Party at Playgroup

Playgroup enjoyed an impromptu "Cheetos Party" today thanks to a surplus from Robert and Heidi.

Swimming at Mingo

Monday evening we went to the Mingo Park pool and enjoyed every minute. Fearlessly, Kit stood in the diving board line. I overheard her tell two teenage girls that she could do a front flip. Meanwhile I consulted with the lifeguard. He explained to Kit that she would have to pass a swimming test (without her Puddle Jumper) before she could go off the diving board. Undismayed, Kit and Winnie found a suitable edge for jumping.

Make It Monday: Dot Paintings

Today the girls painted dots with marshmallows and corks.

Mr. and Mrs. Collett

Congratulations to Justin and Amanda! What a beautiful wedding and reception! The event was especially magical for Kit who was awestruck by Amanda and delighted to dance the entire evening.

Rehearsal and Hayride

On Friday night, Justin and Amanda prepared for their big day. The rehearsal came with an added bonus: a hayride! The church was having its ice cream social, and we got to take a ride before dinner. How cool that Scarlett and Nicholas were on the hayride at the same time!

Rostons Over to Play

Scarlett and Nicholas came over to play with us today. Couch diving and pancakes are two sure bets for delighting little people. 

Make It Monday: Two Scoops

Funny Little Sleeper

Make It Monday: Flower Fireworks

Juggling Show

Monday night at the library we got to see a juggler. Kit giggled at the juggler's slapstick humor the entire time!
