3 Gifts That Were Surprises

By Christi, on February 10th, 2012

15. all 3 slept later than usual.
16. going to the playground and ending up spending an hour playing by the creek (that I didn’t realize was there).
17. the little one not wanting to change her pants before we left the house (they were thin and I was afraid she’d be cold) – so she put another pair on over them. When her bum was covered with wet sand I only had to take off the second pair!

Today’s theme: 3 times you heard laughter

Sew, sew, sew…

I’ve been doing a lot since a couple weeks before Christmas.

Baby doll sleeping bags w/pillows for my girls:

Both girls got a set of matching PJ’s for them and their doll:

I made Gigi a backpack:

and tonight, since R2 lost her FIRST TOOTH, I made this pillow for her tooth:

I’ll have to detail these later… for now, just pics:

Our elves have had a LOT of fun this year and so have we!

Haircuts

The kids all needed a trim but then the girls decided they wanted CUTS! I was leery, I really love my girls’ hair, especially R2′s. Those curls! Well, Ms. Jessica not only cut it but she straightened R2′s, also, something we’ve never done. R2 LOVED it! She wouldn’t wash it for three days! LOL Here are a few quick snaps:

We trimmed the back of R1′s a bit, too, but it’s rare that I get a decent pic of him!

Bubble Painting

By Christi, on October 13th, 2011

I saw this blog and thought the girls would love it. Instead of popping the bubbles with their paper, though (partly because I missed that part in the directions) they just blew until the bubbles overflowed onto their papers. They had a blast!

Going to the Zoo

By Christi, on October 13th, 2011

We went to the Zoo, it’s been a really long time! Here are the highlights:

First column is pretty obvious. Second column, first pic – R1 says these are “rock star” monkeys / under that is the baby lion cubs / then R3 determined to pet EVERY goat in the petting area / and R3 wanting so badly to pet that rooster!.

Third column: R1 pretending to be Scooby Doo / R1 and then R2 feeding the lorikeets.

Fourth column: R3 feeding them “Look, I’m not even freaking out!” she said. And then the girls pretending to be captured by the monster.

Girlie Fun

R2 had seen this pic on pinterest and while we were visiting my grandparents last weekend and playing with chalk we decided to give it a shot. Not bad for a last minute shot and the girls had a blast.
