In honor of GG (Iris)

First sleepover..

Craig was out of town this week on business. These days I have to spend a lot of one on one time with Marissa because she will not take a bottle. I thought it would be fun to have a sleep over with Kay (I would sleep in her bed).  She talked about it for weeks leading up to Craig going out of town. Turns out she is like a magnet at night. No matter how far away I would scoot she was right beside me. I would feel a little foot rubbing my leg to make sure I was still there. It was very sweet. I did not get much sleep but it was worth every second. My girls are growing up too fast!!

Here is a picture of the girls watching me get ready while craig was gone and Marissa hanging out in our big bed.

In the land of English and STILL can't get it right....

I can't blame any language barriers now...I decided to pack a "sweet treat" for Kay's lunch as a special treat because they were having an outside picnic at school. Instead of a "thanks for the sweet treat mom" I got "why did you not know Lilly had sweet treats for everyone today? No one had sweet treats from home. Only sweet treats from Lilly."

10 minutes later..."I will warn you next time to not pack a sweet treat since you don't know"

10 minutes later..."I forgot to make an ad that says don't bring sweet treats. Lilly will bring. Why did you not know mom?"

10 minutes later..."no one brought sweet treats from home mama"

As soon as Craig got home from work..."mama packed a sweet treat from home. No one else had one from home"

I quit!  ;)

Slow going...

I took the girls on a walk this week. Kay wanted to ride her scooter. She has only recently mastered pushing off with her foot and has not really mastered steering. I probably don't have to say this, but we were slooooow going...  Everyone had fun and that is really all that matters!

Goggles...check!

Yes, Kay insisted on wearing them all the way to swim lessons.

Sisters...

Hanging out with dad...
