More Snow

Laura!

It snowed again!

So much snow! I think we got eight inches.

Rebecca loved it! Bless her heart, pajamas as snow gear.

That face! I think Laura is still a little bit too little for the snow. She liked being outside but wanted to be held the entire time.

Goodwood! The best hill in the neighborhood. Rebecca was fearless.

Silly! Three days of snowy togetherness. There were a lot of pajamas worn all day and very few bathes.

Before the snow Rebecca had her first x-rays at the dentist.

So big!

Friday was Valentine's Day! Matt brought home flowers and cupcakes for the girls!

Herman the worm!

Circus

Rebecca!

Spices and bowls! We get these out almost every night. Why do I buy toys?

We had a good weekend! Story time at the library.

And we got to see Alison!! These two girls had so much fun!

Everyone came over to our house for super on Saturday.

We were so glad to see Mandy and Alison even if it was just for a night.

On Sunday we went to the circus with the Anders. Will and Matt were on speaker phone the day before and Will asked Rebecca was there was at the circus. Rebecca said, "Popcorn, ice cream and cotton candy!" Will said he thought there were Elephants at the circus and Rebecca said, "Yeah, and popcorn!"

It really was exciting. Thankfully there weren't any villains or scary parts so Rebecca liked it. And I let Laura eat her weight in popcorn so she liked it, too.

Sweet Laura. My little beauty!

Snow

Laura!

It snowed!! I'm not sure what is going on with this soft focus. I let the girls play with my phone all the time and it think the lens just got dirty. #smudgyfingersfilter

Matt took the Rebecca sledding- so fun!! We split the time out of work and got a babysitter but I still managed to miss 12 hours last week. Our daycare will shut down if there is even a hint of a snowflake.

Laura helped Matt make up some of his time by writing his financial statements for him. I think she's going to be left handed. She is getting bigger everyday! This week she started saying Oma and dog.

Still waking up- perfectly accessorized. We made a deal with Rebecca that if after she goes to bed, we don't see her or hear her until 6 in the morning she gets a sticker on her sleep chart. Then if she gets five stickers she gets to go to the Dollar Tree and pick out anything she wants in the whole store.

And this is what she chose. Creepy.

Pizza party! This weekend we had Elexa over to play. So much fun!

And went to a bunny birthday party!

Where there were real bunnies dressed up like princesses. Real bunnies!!

Ballerina superhero!

The weather was so pretty on Sunday- 63 degrees. Laura has really been into wearing hats lately and Rebecca picked this one out for her. We went for a walk and stopped to talk to some neighbors. Rebecca said, "I"m a ballerina superhero and this is my sister, Santa!" So cute!

Gorgeous day

Story time

Laura!

The last two Saturdays we've been to the library for story time. So fun!

Followed by lunch at Biscuitville- the best place ever!

This Friday Mat Windsor came to visit! We had the best dinner at the Spring House! Sweaters all around.

Sweet Rebecca! This poor girl has a fever at the beginning of the week and we just found out today that she has an ear infection. She did miss a lot of school but definitely enjoyed having us all to herself. Here we are at lunch at IHOP with her barbies.

I love this picture so much. Yes, Matt is wearing infant sunglasses while Rebecca "drives" him to school. 

Laura! Miss Diva. She still has very strong options about everything and often wants to wear he shoes over her pajamas. Fine with me. She's also very quick to laugh does this laughing/grunting/head nodding thing she asks for something and I finally figure out what she wants. 

 Sisters!

The New Year

Laura!

The weekend after Christmas Ms. Joan kept the girls for us so we could spend the night in Raleigh and visit with our friends Scott and Jennifer. It was great to see them! We had a great time! Somehow the only picture I got from the entire trip was this one of just Matt in front of the Chargrill. As a side note the burgers at Chargrill are delicious. The grilled cheese is not. At all.

Here we are on New Year's. We met some friends for Mexican then called it a night. Although it goes against Matt's very being he didn't go out on New Year's and instead came home with me. My sweetheart.

Krispy Kreme! We've had a very exciting new year including our first trip to Krispy Kreme.

And our first trip to the library!

Our friends Shawn and Kelli came for a visit. They are now engaged!!! I think I'm probably more excited about this than they are.

Last weekend we met our friends the Browns at the Science Center.

Rebecca and Madison!

Here we are playing our new favorite game- Let's run up and down the hallway!

My little helpers.

Happy girl! I love seeing Laura in Rebecca's old clothes. She is getting so big! She is at that age where she can understand everything but is able to say nothing. She gets frustrated sometimes but is getting better and better about communicating what she wants. She is actually starting to say more words- hi, bye, ball, outside. The other day I was giving her a bath and there were frogs on her wash cloth. She pointed to one and said, "Ribit!" Genius.

Sweet, sweet girls.
