Shots from Home


Lindsey shows us her semi-sweet side. - May 2010


Some weekends when we're bored, Ella comes to visit. Mommy loves to see Ella and Dionne and Adam. We think it gives her a break.


Hannah takes an Ella break.

Just Playing Around


Sometimes we just horse around at home. Hannah is ready to drive. On the way to day care recently, she asked me if she could drive when she turned 6. Oh boy... - May 2010


Lindsey is content to just blow bubbles and she does it every chance she gets.


She likes to chase them too.


Hannah is a big bike rider.


50s Day and Trike-a-Thon


Preschool recently had a 50s Day and Trike-a-Thon. The girls were thrilled to wear dresses to school - and tights. - April 2010


Hannah was ready for her turn on the trike.


Jack, Hannah and Lindsey play at preschool. Thanks to Susan, Jack's mom, for taking pictures and forwarding them.


Lindsey and Chayse take a spin on the dance floor.


Our own 50s chick is ready for the sock hop.



Gone Fishin'


One of the great things about living in the country is walking out the back door and being able to fish in our own pond which we do time and again. The girls love to get involved as long as the fish are biting which they were this particular day. - May 2010


Lindsey commandeered Mommy's camera to take a picture of Daddy and Hannah. It's a little heavy for her but the 45-degree angle look is hip.


Hannah waits and waits and waits.


They each caught at least one.







Monday

Ella's Third Bday


You know it's a party when the host gets attacked by the guests. Thankfully, Uncle Adam is a good sport. - April 2010


Hannah, Ella's Cousin Laura and Ella get ready for some cake.


Any idea how hard it is to get five girls age 4 and under to pose for a photo. Only Hannah was ready for the camera - as usual.


The three musketeers and a pensive Lindsey. Now that's a switch!


Puppy Madness


Daddy finally got the puppy he's been wanting for a couple years. He told us he could name it but for some reason he didn't like the names we picked out - Rainbow, Hallee and Sally. We finally came up with Daisy and he was OK with that. She is a pretty hunting dog. We like her as long as she is in her pin. She likes to jump on us and that's not fun. - April 2010


Papa got a dog out of the same litter. We named him too. His name is Charlie.




Easter Weekend at Grandma and Papa's


Swingin' with Cousin Ellie. - April 2010


We love feeding the fish.


Bubble time!

Egg Hunters


When Lindsey is done, she's done. - April 2010


Hannah looks for eggs.

Hannah hams it up


Lindsey isn't the only one who knows how to ham it up. Hannah, however, is usually more willing especially when bribed with a chocolate bunny. - April 2010



The Faces of Lindsey


Lindsey is not usually a big fan of the camera so when she's in a mood, we take full advantage. - April 2010






Easter Egg fun


So Mommy has totally been slacking off on the blog so now it's catch-up time. Here Grandma and Hannah ham it up after taking a break from dyeing Easter eggs. - April 2010


Lindsey is a pro at dyeing eggs. She didn't even break any.


Hannah shows off her pretty orange egg.


Who me dye too many eggs? Nah!


Gotta stir the dye - makes a bigger mess that way:)



Sunday

Puppy Time

Daddy brought home a new hunting dog. We talked about names for her...Rainbow, Sally, Rosebud...but Daisy is the one that stuck. - April 2010

Papa got one too (background). We call him Charlie. Not sure if that name will stick too:)

We were scared of the pupppies at first because they chased us and jumped on us but now we like to soft (pet) them. They are so cute! Daisy has two spots on her back and on her forehead.


We love our new puppy!

Saturday

March Rewind

It's official - Mommy is losing it. She totally forgot we went on an Easter egg hunt where Daddy works in March. It was cold, but we had a blast. - March 2010

Once again, Hannah worked at her own pace, while Lindsey went for volume. Ironically, Lindsey doesn't like candy and Hannah loves it so it's a win-win situation.

We're ready for the hunt!

See how windy it was?


Lindsey hams it up prior to the hunt.

Friday

Just a few more bubbles


Hannah tries her hand at bubblemaking. - April 2010


Lindsey has a go at it as well.
