Days in our lives...

Courtney has become quite the camera ham lately. She got a lot of press in this post because she's been so funny/photo eager lately.
Tonight at dinner Alex offered Gracie something and she turned to him and said, "No thank you, Alek." It was so adorable. Alex thought she said, "I hate you Alek." Boys...Gracie calls him Alek and Courtney says "Adex."
Kirill said, "I promise you mom that I will do it right after I play. I could say 'I vow' but that's not a nice word." It was funny. I explained that vow wasn't a bad word, jut a little strong:)
Thanks to the Miles Family in North Carolina for the cool boots. Still 2 sizes too big, but my fashion diva loves them. The hair is a work in progress. We got the pony tails in and now we're slowly getting the braids done.
Caroline is quite proud of her standing skills. Courtney is trying to convince her that this doll should ride in the shopping cart and Caroline keeps throwing her out on the floor.

Ready or not pool, here we come.
Courtney looks like she's practicing to be on a dance team with her arms all straight.

Caroline looking adorable. She's getting so big. This week she learned to wave bye and hi. It's very horizontal and cute. She no longer likes the exersaucer, she only wants to be on the move!

Princess fever! Courtney and Gracie are in love with the Princesses. Note the PJs and the sippy cups. The PJs are worn over clothes so they don't freeze! We can't wait to get Princess Tiana gear for them.
Alex's birthday cake at home. The 3rd time he blew out the candles. Courtney is pulling her shy look. Alex likes to wear his coat in the house if he feels that it isn't warm enough.
Courtney took off her shirt and pulled up her skirt like this and said, "Swim?" This is her way of saying "cheese" for the present. It looks devilish:)


Hair! This day Gracie had 4 puffs and Courtney had lots of ponytails that were all going to be braided like the front two. I had cute little "pretties" on the end of the braids, but she pulled them off. Once again, Courtney isn't scowling, she's saying "cheese"

  2. They are all growing so much. Little 'line is going to be bossing everybody else around as soon as she can to get back at them. Hopefully you are getting a few more warm days and a few less snow ones there.

  3. The girls are getting so pretty. It's a sad sad day when the exersaucer is denied. I'm so proud of you for doing their hair so cute. Have they asked for my old beloved "side pony tail with ten gallon bangs yet?"
