October 20, 2013

So many cute pictures this week.  I had to split this week into two posts - and still save some extra cute ones of Tommy for his seven month post next week.  Hope you enjoy this week's shenanigans....


 Lily making Tommy look like a monkey.  They both thought this was so funny last Monday night.


Annie made it back to gymnastics this week.  After taking some time off to heal from her surgery.  She jumped right back in and was so happy to see her teacher again.




After gymnastics we met Daddy at his office for lunch.  Daddy is actually in a temporary office while his is getting redone.  Soon he will be moving to another location which will be closer to the rest of his team.  Lily had fun drawing our family on his white board.  The black arch between Mommy and Daddy is a rainbow - with limited colors, what's a girl to do?  We love how she gave all of us eyebrows.  After eating lunch, we had spinning races in Daddy's chair.



 Lily and Annie are having a birthday party in two weeks.  Lily didn't like any of the invitations in the stores, and Mommy didn't like the cost of the ones online - so we sat down together and designed our own invitations.  Lily wanted to have treasure and pirate flags on the invites.  We're really happy with how they turned out.  Lily helped stick the flags and jewels on the cards.  She was very proud of her work.


The girls both complain of headaches when we take drives in the car.  So once again we bought them sunglasses.  These were only a dollar a pair so if they get lost, it won't be too hard to replace them.  They want to wear them everywhere!



 Lily is loving dance again.  They have a cute routine and Lily leaves class singing the song every week.  Her first performance will be in March so they have a lot of time to get everything perfect.


While Mommy tried to shower on Thursday, Annie decided to color all over the kitchen floor with blue crayon.  I made her scrub it all up.  She was so happy to do it....can't you tell?


 I made our family's favorite dinner this week.  Annie was all about the noodles.  She just grabbed a handful started munching away before we were even done with the prayer.


Guess who FINALLY started crawling this week?  Saturday night Tommy started making the movements right before bed time.  Then Sunday after church, he took off after a toy.  Daddy was the first to see him do it.  There's no stopping this boy now.



 We learned that we can successfully grow onions.  It was exciting to harvest them.  We've been curing them in the garage for three weeks and now they are ready to store.  Next year we will plant more varieties.


Annie turned three years old on Friday!  Her requested birthday breakfast was cinnamon pancakes with Mommy's maple-vanilla syrup.  We didn't do much to celebrate that day.  But we made up for it the next day.  Plus she'll be having her party in two weeks and she is so excited to wear her pirate costume for her party.


Lily participated in the Primary program in Sacrament Meeting on Sunday.  Saturday morning we had a two hour rehearsal at the church to get ready.  Here's Lily with her friends Claire and Alyssa.


Saturday afternoon Annie desperately needed a nap and insisted she didn't want one.  She fell asleep in her bed bent in half like this after crying for nearly 20 minutes.  Thankfully she did take her nap and woke up ready for an afternoon of fun.  Check out our next post to see what we did.
