As the days go by...

This is the toy of choice at the moment. 

Put them in, dump them out, repeat.

Every day.

The only change in pattern is to put them in the wrong spot 

and then she says, "Noooo..." and finds the right spot. 

Repetition is the spice of life!

(something I would do good to remember when I am doing laundry... 

or dishes... or cleaning up... but anyway, this post isn't about me. :) )

Little gymnast. Dang it, I always wanted to learn
how to do stuff on the balance beam. 

But seriously, this post isn't about me. :)

This Jessie bear is very loved. 

She came home with this bear from hospital
when she was born, so it's kind of special.

I figured I better get a good picture of Jessie before she's threadbare. 

Cause she will be soon the way she's loved!

Everyone needs a good drinking friend.

And a lunch buddy.

And someone to care for us when we're tired. (she's saying "shhhh" as Josh fell asleep)

New favourite shoes. "Now I have cool shoes like Aunty Sharon!"

In case you're wondering, I don't have this problem. Definitely not.

Daniel and Laura are racing, and C thinks she is too!

This is when Daniel realised Laura beat him...

...and then when Laura realised she beat him!

The kids like the panorama setting on my phone.
1st thought: Am I always standing there?
2nd thought: Wow, look at that empty space on the bench! :)

Rock climbing fun

So much snow so close to home!

She's only crying because she loved it and didn't want to be held!

I can walk all the way. By. My. Self.

Sometimes it's like parenting Laura all over again. 

But then I remember Miss C's genetic makeup isn't from us, 

so it's the whole nature/nurture thing in question.

3 feisty girls in one house, sheesh!

And that's a wrap.

Puddles are for jumping in.

Hats are for being silly.

Yoghurt is for eating with your fingers.

Flowers are for taking pictures of.

Cockatoos are for making noise outside the house!
There must have been 30 of them, it was so cool.

Sisters are for cuddling in bed with.

Brothers are for pushing!

Dads are for annoying you!

Life is for all this and more!
