A Thanksgiving Ditty

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!

Faces

Our youngest girl took a tumble, and her sweet face has the marks to prove it. Sydney has been sporting this black eye for about a week now after pulling a high chair over on herself. Yikes!

Jane has been working on her silly face.

We had an extra face at our house last night! My parents babysat my girls and my nephew last night at our house. Brody spent the night with us, and then we took him to church. My girls loved having him around! Brody, you are welcome over here anytime!


How 'bout these sweet faces?

One of the Many Differences

Jane likes her crib fairly empty, just her pillow, lovie, and her blankie.

Sydney, however, likes to pile in as much stuff as we will let her, books, dolls, blankies, etc.

As cluttered as her crib is, I'm just happy she hasn't climbed out of it!

Monkey See,

Monkey Do!

Unseasonably Warm

It has been quite warm here lately (at least for November), and we have been taking advantage of it!

Yesterday we went to the zoo.
Sydney was intrigued by the tiger.

All three girls liked the big fish.

Jane and Sydney practiced their flamingo stance!

With this beautiful weather, we have been taking our afternoon snack outside! The girls love it, and my kitchen floor doesn't get "snacked!"

Today it was a little sand playing,

a lot of running,

a little wrestling,

some swinging and sliding,

a little drink sharing,

and a lot of smiles!

JUMP!

Jane and Clare

(I guess at some point I have to stop posting pictures of the girls in their Halloween shirts....)

Clare-isms, 3rd Edition

Documenting the funny things that Clare says and does...

The other day after church we stopped to get some lunch to take home. Clare and Casey went in the sandwich shop to get our food. When they came out, Clare was holding a medium-sized drink. She looks up at me and says, "This is MY Diet Dr. Coke."

A couple of weeks ago while Casey was watching The Cowboys play, I took the girls out to run an errand. While we were driving back home, I told Clare that she needed to go inside and ask Daddy, "How The 'Boys were doing?" She responded by saying, "I am going to call them The Rainbows. I will ask him how The Rainbows are doing."

This morning we had arrived at a park. Sydney was fussing because she didn't want to put her shoes on. I said, "Sydney, if you want to play at the park, you have to put your shoes on."
Clare, standing behind me, says,
"No shoes, no service."
