Winter 2013 - Randomness

This week marked the official end of Kyle's busy season!  YEAH!!!! He has been home for dinner for the last 2 nights and it has been wonderful.  Tomorrow will be the first Saturday he has not had to work this year.  So we have lots of plans to get things ready for having a new baby in the house. 

Below are a bunch of random photos from the past winter.   Enjoy!
 

Brookie is our little cuddlebug.  Here she has climbed into Daddy & Mommy's bed.  She loves her 'mankie' (blankie) and she usually sucks on her 2 fingers when she has it.  I think she has sucked on those same 2 fingers since the day she was born.

 Katelyn is the fashionable dresser with her pj's, rain boots and a magnifying glass in the rain boots.  They make me smile.

 Here is a pic Kyle sent me from breakfast.  He & Katelyn go out to breakfast once a month.  She LOVES it.  (You can tell that mommy was not up yet to do her hair before they left.)

 Boxes make fun toys and the girls often (although not always) play well together.

That's right.  In California, we rake leaves while wearing short sleeves in JANUARY.

 We often have to wait for Daddy on Sundays after morning service (He is a Deacon.).  The girls like to get books from the library and then sit outside the room where Daddy is.

The girls made ice cream, cookies, and pancakes for Daddy with play-dough.  I really need to work on getting less blurry pics from my phone.  GRRR.

 Reading with Grandpa.

 Up to no good.

 Waiting for shots at the Dr.  The girls usually do really well at the dr's office.  This time though they both had small fevers and we had to come back a second time for the shots. Of course, they never get sick otherwise.

 Doesn't everyone watch tv like this?  Silly Brooke (there's that mankie again).

We enjoy riding bikes and scooters in the front yard on a regular basis.  We also take some walks through the field by our house.

 Here are the girls at the park with their 2 cousins.
