The Royal Treatment

Kate loves being able to take care of Ellie. She also loves dressing up. Here she is, dressed up AND taking care of Ellie...she was in her element and Ellie, she was enjoying the royal treatment. But little did Ellie know that while she was distracted the jester was trying to take her paci! Yes, Rachel Lee, at two years old, would like a paci. She often cries and asks for one when she sees Ellie get her paci. The sad part is that Rachel Lee can speak in sentences now, and is still asking, "Mama, I wat da pac-i-fire!" Yet one more way that I know that RL is too old for a paci.

Winder Wonderland

The other day we went to the beach to play, and then following day it hailed!! Three times!! The girls and I loved it and were able to put on our rain coats and play with the hail.


Kate wanted to put some snow in her pocket for later. I asked her, "What do you know about snow?" and she replied, "It's cold." "What else," I asked, "It usually rains," she answered. "And, what happens when snow gets warm?" I asked, "Oh, it melts." I just love her thought process and all the things she says!

We even turned our slide into a snow run...kinda...



Beach Babes

I love watching the sunset over the beach. It's just so beautiful, and when you add my three beauties to the mix you have the perfect recipe for photos that make you pause for a moment or two and appreciate how good life is, and how beautiful God's creation is. Here are my silly girls, getting ready to "GO!"

Walking down to the water together
...and dancing...
...digging...
...and running in and out of the waves.



Jeff biked down the hill to join us for a bit before we headed home. We all watched the sunset together and it was...BEAUTIFUL!

Bowling Babies

The girls are in the jammies, teeth are brushed, we are all gearing down for bed and Jeff starts a new game of bowling babies...I never know what he is going to do next!

A few more pics from RL's party

My mom and dad just got a new Apple computer and she is now able to upload her pictures and e-mail them! So, here are a few more pictures from RL's birthday, which celebrates two great things: 1. More pictures of my baby girl 2. The fact that she can email pictures now!!
