Lilly being Kate Goselin

For those of you that know of or watch the show John and Kate plus eight, this is Lilly's best impersonation of Kate and how she wears her hair.




To acquire this look, go to bed with damp hair and then make sure you move around a lot on your back while sleeping.

Freedom

So the gate that used to reside at the base of the stairs is officially gone(it actually has been gone for a while now) Drew and Lilly feel like they have a entire new space to explore. And although they seem much happier...more surface area for toddlers to roam is more mess for the people in charge. One more step toward independence. Kind of..they are still only two.

Audtions for the circus

This is our gymnastics/circus class in Healdsburg. We seem to enjoy the things more realted to the circus aspect of the class.



As soon as Drew gets to class, he runs straight to these rubber rings and doesn't ever really put it down the entire time. Parents come up to me in class and say, "Is that your son with the yellow ring? He keeps telling me to 'Watch this'...'Watch this'" He proceeds to throw it up in the air and I cross my fingers that it doesn't come down and crash into some poor innocent kids face.


Lilly is asking for one of these in her room next birthday.

What happened to my youth?

Todd just stumbled across this picture and I seriously gasped at how young I looked. As the big 30 is fast approaching(March 18th if you are wondering) I wonder has having kids aged me that much? In this picture is my nephew Matthew who is almost 8 years old....so you can do the math seeing how young he is in this picture. I ask again....why do I look and feel so much older when I look in the mirror on this Sunday night?

Lucky us!

We are so fortunate to have a friend like Melody who captures moments like these of our family. Drew and Lilly got their first taste of real candy with these giant lollipops in a sea of giant mustard plants. We had such a great time getting these shots!





Big surprise that she was the messiest by the end of the day


On a sugar high maybe?


Thanks so much Melody!

More from Melody

Todd and I had a few moments too. I love my husband!



The fish-eye lens



I am telling you...if you need a photographer, call Melody. Or call me because I have coupons for first time clients :-) You won't be disappointed.

I know..let's do arts and crafts on these rainy days

There is nothing like tape, glue, puff balls, eye balls, and pipe cleaners on a rainy day. Just in case any one is wondering..the warning on pipe cleaners says for ages 8 and above which I thought was incorrect....but those pipe cleaners are sharp. Be warned and just ask Lilly next time you see her.





Harry Potter look-a-like
