So much to do, so little time...






We have been very busy! We got a new chair that plays music when we sit on it. We love to fight over it! A is showing it off in the picture.

Another one of our favorite things to do lately is walk around with blankets on our heads. Mom and Dad thing we're crazy but we think it's absolutely hilarious. A is sporting the red blanket while C has the pink one. C even signs "help please" when her blanket falls off her head and she wants it put back. Speaking of signing, both girls sign "please", "more", "eat", "all finished", and "help" regularly. We're working on signing "drink", "thank you", and "dog" (our favorite animal).

We also went to Shaw Farms to pick out pumpkins. They also had chickens, goats, horses, a donkey, various birds (Mom didn't like that part at all), and rabbit. A especially enjoyed petting the rabbit. We had a great time climbing on the pumpkins and playing in the teepee. And, we still liked each other at the end of day as we held hands on the way home!

We'll try to post more soon but we'll be on vacation next week--we need it after all we've been doing!

Shoes & Books



















Few things excite the girls more than shoes and books! Whenever we get ready to leave all I have to say is, "We need to put on our shoes" and the girls come running saying, "shs, shs, shs". They have good taste I must say. We bought them new winter shoes this week which made their day!

They also love to read and spend quite a bit of time just looking at books throughout the day. I'm sure it means that they're very intelligent. :)

Here are a few pictures of them enjoying their favorite things. A is wearing denim overalls and C is wearing pink overalls.
