Big Sisters

Do you think these girls are excited about us getting a new baby soon!?! :) They had a fun time visiting with their new little friend.

This has never happened...

A couple of weeks ago after NOT taking naps (I had, however, given them an hour in their beds after lunch to do so...but it didn't happen) the girls both fell asleep on the couch in the late afternoon watching The Wiggles. This has NEVER happened before...and it will probably never happen again! So cute!

Pretty Girls in Pretty Dresses

My mother had these cute little dresses laid out on the girls bed when we arrived at their house. They wore them to a Christmas party we went to while we were there.

The girls wore these Christmas dresses to the "Puttin' on the Ritz" party that my parents hold at their house each year at Christmas.

Somehow we didn't get pictures of the girls on either Sunday morning dressed in their Sunday Christmas dresses. Just realize that you have Jimmy to thank for all of the pictures that have been and will be posted from our 3 week vacation. My nausea kept me from doing a good job at documenting our trip!

Pretty, Pretty, Princesses!

These two little girls love to dress up. Jane alternates from the blue outfit to the pink outfit probably 2 to 3 times per day on average!

Kitty Cat Houses

Jane STILL enjoys being a cat. Her latest joy is making a cat house for herself. Jewel gets in on the fun sometimes, when she is not intent on a "project."

I have a crazy amount of pictures from the last few days that I am trying to wittle down to a "post-able" amount. Check back soon! :)

By God's Grace...

we pray that our girls will love their Bibles when they are older (once they actually learn how to read) as much as they do now.

Pretty Girls with their Dolls

My friend and co-worker (from 5 years ago) bought our girls these beautiful dolls. They are absolutely precious. The girls really love them. The dolls usually live in a nice high location in their room where they are displayed, but out of reach.

Sunday Morning

Sisters

I have found Jewel and Jane sitting in the closet on several occasions with Jewel doing Jane's hair. Jane will sit there for like 10 minutes or so, but that just isn't long enough for Jewel. She could brush Jane's hair for probably an hour! These girls are playing machines. They are SOOOO busy! I can have them clean up their room (which they do a pretty good job of doing), and about 15 minutes later it looks like a tornado has just passed through. They are most recently into playing tent (you KNOW how crazy that can be...pulling out every blanket in the house!), house, babies, dress up...and the list could go on and on.

My Little Cinderellas

I am posting this picture against my better judgment. :) As an excuse for my girls disheveled appearance, it WAS a Saturday and Jimmy took the picture. I would have at least stopped them from working long enough to fix their hair and wash their faces before taking the picture! :) The picture was just too cute not to post!

Meeting Dora

We had a pretty big day today with a church work day and Share and Swap. But while Jimmy was doing some yardwork, I loaded the girls up again to go see DORA!!!! They were so excited.

(Notice Jewel holding Dora's hand.)
