Water Babies

At the Y, the girls are very comfortable in the water with their life jackets on. It is only 3 feet deep so Rachel is touching as well.

Pay the Toll






























My Dad (Papa) was playing with the girls on a slide, blocking their way, demanding a toll. The girls loved trying to get past him under his arm.

Even at breakfast.
Can you see her?

Labor Day Weekend




Hide and Seek


Hiding in a closet with your legs sticking out, tripping those walking down the hallway still counts as hiding in our house.

She wrote her name!

Lauren has been been working on writing her name. I have many samples with the letters in random order but here they are all in a row. I love her R's the best.

Forever Fish



















Until we take the plunge at keeping fish again, the girls made some decorations to liven up our tank.

Princess Clean Feet



















The girls love both dressing up as princesses and washing their feet in the bathroom sink. Look how happy they get when they combine them.

Rachel's button

How can you make Rachel extremely upset and mad? Wash her cuddly. One mistake is to give it to her hot from the dryer. She likes a cold blanket to the point of on our drives to Sacramento she requests it get put in front of the a/c. But if she needs cuddly (i.e. stubbed her toe) before it has cooled off it is a big problem. Tonight's mistake was fabric softener. Now her blanket smells different than before. As soon as Rachel went to bed she noticed. She has been crying and complaining that I made her cuddly smell horrible and contending that she can't go to sleep because it smells bad. How long does Bounce last anyway?
