PRINCESSES!

Princesses are the main theme around our house these days. We read princess stories, put them in carriages, sing about them and even dress up like them. So you will be happy to know that Layna found a crown just for Claire!

A Few Favs!

The girls are really starting to interact together and it is SOO fun to watch! Claire just lights up when she see's Layna and Layna is such a good big sister. She is patient and loving . What more could we ask for? Lovin' my girls!

Balloon Race

Every year my good friend Laura talks about how much fun her and the boys had at the Forest Park Balloon Race...and so this year we decided to join her! We had an excellent time and based on these pictures...we are already planning Layna and Michael's 1st DATE!

Halloween!

We had a wonderful Halloween and a special thanks goes out to our WONDERFUL Mary for making Layna's carrot costume. I found Claire's Peapod costume at a kids sale last year and so then I found an article about how to make a carrot costume! Needless to say I do not have a sewing maching--and so Mary offered to attempt it. I think it turned out great! We had an awesome time at our neighborhood party with G and G Zimmerman, Laura and her boys and Mary.

Pumpkin Patch!

We kept our tradition again this year by taking both girls to the Pumpkin Patch! Last year at this time I was big and pregnant with Claire and it was so nice to have both of my little girls with me this time. Karl made a big breakfast this morning for our wonderful Mary as we invited her to come along also. We had a great time watching Layna run around and I of course took about 75 pictures! It was a beautiful day and we are so blessed with our two beautiful little girls!
