Here fishey fishey

The girls have started swim lessons. We decided to put them both in a parent ed class, just once so we could all be in the pool together. The worst part of all being in the pool is there is no one to take pictures. Aubree loves it, she can't get enough of it. Hayley is just like her mom, likes the water but doesn't really want to get splashed in the face. We all like it especially because the pool is heated. LOVE IT!!

Special Surprise

There are few things Aubree loves more than to get packages. When we came home from park day we came home to a PACKAGE. It was from Eli, he had sent us flowers. Aren't these Peruvian Lilly's beautiful? ( funny fact, on the paper work they said they came from Ecuador)
I never have really thought about flowers coming through the mail, but now I have decided it might be better than from a local florist. When they come in the mail they bloom for you, when they come from a florist they bloom for the florist. Just a thought. What do you think?

Please meet you activities director..

AubreeSometimes during the day I just sit back and watch the girls interact and have fun. The best part is that Aubree has taken it upon herself to see that everything Hayley does is micromanaged. I think this is why we have older and younger siblings. The older ones get to boss the younger ones around and we think this is fun. Why does this same concept not work when I tell Aubree to pick up her toys?

New Cousin

Eli's sister Tina and her husband Mike had a beautiful little boy. Zeke was born at the end of February and a couple of weeks ago we introduced the cousins. Let me tell you how much Aubree loves him. She just like to be in the same room as him. She is so sweet and soft. She just loved to touch his hair and arms. After taking a little nap Zeke woke up and Aubree needed to go with Tina to check on him. Hayley was intereted in the I am still MY MOM's baby sort of way. We are so happy for Tina and Mike, and are tickled that Zeke has come to join the maddness.

my new favorite thing...

This would be Hayley's new favorite thing. First thing in the morning she walks over to the rocking chair where ever it and does this. Sometimes she changes things up and tries to take a kick ball with her. She loves it, it is what makes her happy. At first Eli and I would try and stop her but I have given up and just make sure she is safe. Who would ever want to make that girl cry??

Who need Fancy Nancy when you can have....

FANCY AUBREE!!!!!!!!!!!!

She just loves to play dress up and thought it was so funny that she was dressed just like her doll

Fruit smoothies anyone

Aubree and I decided that instead of letting all the fruit go bad we would make a fruit smoothie. She loved pushing the buttons.What could make them better? Drinking them in a fancy glass.
And to top it all off we ate some toast. It was so fun and tasted really good. What a great Smile!!
