Accessorize

The girls love their bag of Jewelry. So they get out their bag and try to put everything on. Also even thought there are tons of everything they still fight over certain things! But they are so cute with them. I'm Paranoid so their jewelry bag is kept up high unless they ask me for it. I just get scared that someone is going to choke. I think it also makes it more fun when they do get it out because they are not just in a mess with the rest of their toys. Which is one of my next projects: Toy Organization.

The Bruise

Dakota did not want to go to bed and was crying then the crying got worse so I went in to check on her and she was getting out of her bed. So I thought she bumped her head I gave her hugs and kisses and put her back to bed and in the morning she woke up like this. I guess she really did bump her head. She had a bruise about six months ago on her eye too.

Here she is really enjoying dinner and giving Daddy a Grrrr face!Here is Cloe's Grrr face!They are awfully cute for mean grrr faces.

P.S. We had Taco's for dinner, it was a hit! :)

Baked Spaghetti

For those of you who don't know Brent is one of the pickiest eaters ever. It is really hard to cook for him and two little girls who also have their own pickiness too. I really don't like cooking because I can't ever please everyone and I don't really get to make foods that I love so it just usually feels like I'm cooking and praying that someone will eat supper! Dakota she is usually the one I can count on devouring dinner! I Decided to make a baked spaghetti instead of regular because I thought that Brent said he liked it when we had it before and the girls love spaghetti and I thought it would be a hit. Everyone pretty much ate it but even I knew it wasn't the best meal I had ever made but despite it all Brent led the girls in cheering for supper and giving a round of applause it really made me feel appreciated and that Brent knows I work hard at dinner even though it isn't always what everyone enjoys the best. Thanks Brent!
And thanks Dakota. She is trying to eat like a dog, one of the girl's favorite things to do. (Just turn your head and Don't watch and try not to laugh even though she is smooshing her face in the food and rubbing it all around.)

A is for Apple

The girls and I are going to be having School time about four times a week for about 30 minutes. I'm going to pick a theme and come up with activities to go with it. I got most of my things this week from First-School it is a really neat site with letter tracing pages and tons of coloring pages, crafts ideas, and even recipe ideas. It has been really helpful in getting me motivated and going and the girls seem to be learning things and enjoying it.

We have been talking about what colors apples are and why they are healthy for us and where they come from and we have been talking about and writing the letter A. And we have been learning about what other things are healthy for us.

Our apple stamp and leaf picture.

Our Cooking experiment with apples.

Our coloring pages and worksheets.

We also made a grocery list for mom. I printed out a bunch of pictures of healthy food and unhealthy food and they had to pick the healthy ones out to make our grocery list and then we went to the store with their pictures and they helped pick out the healthy groceries.

Things we learned:

Cloe: When we were going outside in the rain we put our coats on and we were heading out and Cloe said, "You need to rip (zip) me up and keep my body healthy." Also, I asked her why are apples healthy for us, "Vitamins." I didn't really know if they were paying attention.

Dakota: When reviewing what we learned to daddy I asked what does the letter A say (Fulling expecting Cloe to answer) and Dakota says, "aaaa."

Brent's Elk

The Man of the house is bringing home the food! Thanks hunny, and I think he's big!

The Ultrasound

I really really wanted Cloe to be a surprise. I kinda wanted to know about Dakota. And I really really wanted to know the Gender of this baby, unfortunartly the baby would not open it's legs, so it could be a girl but I guess if you can't really see it you can't know. The ultrasound guy, whatever you want to call him, said that he wouldn't really say one way or the other. So I guess we are going to be surprised again. The good news is that the baby has all it's parts and is healthy and really cute so here are the pics.

A picture of the baby looking straight at us!Side view baby on it's back!

Baby looking down it's on it's belly!

And just for fun here is the baby at 7 weeks. The baby has grown so much already! :)

And now here is the baby from the outside view at 19 weeks!

I wanted to keep up with these more but here is my atempt and it kinds makes me happier that I am not :)

Just Hanging Out!

I had some more pics from my trips so here they are... Evan (my sister Andy's boyfriend), Andy, and Cloe at Borders for dinner.

Dakota acts tough sometimes but she really enjoys a good cuddle and is a sweetie!

Cloe and Dakota settling into our new house.

Here is Princess Cloe she picked out her outfit today and dressed to match!

The other night Cloe came out of bed because she didn't want to go to bed and I asked her, "Cloe, what are you doing out of bed." and she said, "Just hanging out!" I couldn't help but crack a grin.
