Odds and Ends.

I decided to look back over the last month's pictures to see what I've done lately and should be blogging about. Perhaps all I did was take pictures?
I realize that the majority of pics that I post seem to contain only half of my children, do not worry all my bazillion blog readers. Babes has only about 1/100th the pictures Danica had by the time she was this age so I'm not really playing favorites.

If you could look closely at this pic you can see a trail of spit up across the floor... How many times can babes spit up when crossing 5 ft?
We were watching a movie as a fam, Bedtime Stories, Danica kept taking over Mira's blanket so Rob had her get her own. Lil sis decided she liked sharing...Danica was kinda in her way though. As much as she tried she just couldn't roll over big sissy.

Danica picked out a handful of babylegs to order for babes. This is one of our favorite pairs.
We got all ready to go swimming....then someone got in trouble and we couldn't go. =( I have a child that argues nonstop and I try to discourage that.
Danica kept giving Mira her toy/book to draw with. She was scribbling on it for a while! I took a video of it. Danica says the final pic was a wave and an arrow... Danica is constantly playing with her little sis. It's so darlin' to hear her read stories and "teach" her things.
Haha. Danica has been practicing braiding on my hair lately. Well she was blowdrying it so she could play with it because she wanted to put barrettes in it this time but it takes too long to blowdry so I told her she could do my makeup in the meantime. She sure got a kick out of it. She put about ten different shades of eyeshadow on me because that was her favorite part. It turned out gray all mixed together. Don't I look beautiful?! I didn't let her do mascara-didn't want to be blinded or anything. ;) I love having lil girls.
Babes is kind enough to wash her own toes in the bath. She LOVES baths. Even if she is screaming her head off if we take her into the bathroom and start getting her ready for a bath she'll quiet right down.
Rob decided to feed her bananas as her first food...That was the only thing Danica had a reaction to as a baby...
She took them really well. I'm too lazy to start her on food any earlier than is necessary but I think she will really like it. Since she spits up ALL the time I can't imagine the messes I'd have to clean up were she having stuff other than milk.
We made turkeys for a Thanksgiving craft! I had bought the stuff for them last year but never got around to doing them. It was probably a good thing. I think it would have been a little much for Danica last year. Of course we needed refreshments since we were crafting.


Bye now!

Your kids are way cute! I love the one of Mira on top of Danica! Priceless! Her swimming suit is super cute! I also don't know why you don't let Danica do your makeup for church! I thought it was nice! Way to go Danica!

Baby legs? Are those kinda like leg warmers for babies? I don't remember seeing anything like that for boys when Ethan was born.
Love the bath pic and the one of Mira trying to roll over Danica!
