I have pictures from the past couple of months that I haven’t posted yet, so here are some that make me smile:
I have been keeping my eyes open for a Strawberry Shortcake toothbrush since Kiera saw one this past winter and wanted it but I didn’t buy it at that time. I found these at Wal-Mart for the kids and they definitely like them!
This “after bath” hairdo
She likes the double chocolate spelt muffins that I make.
At the old house, Kiera liked to come with me to get Haley when she woke up in the morning, and she would sit Haley down on her lap and slide her way down the stairs with her and then sometimes sit with her on the couch. I love how she loves her baby sister!
I tried to get a good picture of Haley in her Easter dress, but she just wanted to move around all the time and not look at the camera.
Kiera came home from school one day looking like this, which was a cute surprise.
It’s hard to get a picture of the three of them together all holding still at the same time, so I got one when they were watching a show.
Blake spilled some iced tea on the counter and this was his way of cleaning it up, funny boy!
The hours they have spent drawing colorful pictures at the counter while I am cooking, baking or cleaning in the kitchen.
Blake’s drawings are really progressing: I think the dinosaur is having a party with balloons.
I can always tell when she has enjoyed a meal because her hair and face are covered in it!
She may have been pretending to be an airplane….not totally sure.
She has a lot of space to push her little stroller around.
Her hair is getting in her eyes and we don’t want her to have bangs, so I’ve been starting to put it in a ponytail on top of her head. She doesn’t like to leave it in for very long most days, but I managed to get a picture of it before she pulled it out.
I think they were doing sock puppets, but again, I’m not sure.
Kiera painted herself and Blake at school and I thought it was funny and cute.
I came home one day last week to find her fast asleep in her high chair at lunchtime. I think that’s the first time she’s ever done that!
My favorite flowers are bright-colored daisies, and my friend brought these over as a housewarming gift, having no clue that they are my favorite! What a blessing!
Our house is surrounded by mud since there is no yard yet. When we were moving, I was packing the kids up to leave the new house and go back to the old house. They were all in the van and I had forgotten something inside, so I quickly ran in to get it. When I got back in the van, Blake said, “Haley is all muddy.” I was confused as to how she would have gotten that way, so I turned around and this is what I saw:
This picture doesn’t even quite fully capture it. She looked like someone trying to camouflage themselves in the bush, there was SO much mud covering her entire face! There was mud all over her seat, Blake’s seat and a couple of the windows. I asked him what happened and he had quickly gone in the mud before we left the house and had decided to wipe off his dirty mittens all over his sister and the van! Haley looked hilarious, especially because she seemed quite oblivious to it all but I was not impressed by the mess I had to clean up. At least I got a picture out of it and now I can laugh about it!
