Chef Jolie

Jolie was pretend baking in the playroom a couple of days ago & since it was lunchtime I thought it would be a good time for her to help me in the kitchen. We searched for a recipe in one of Jolie's cookbooks & found one for some ABC Pancakes that she liked (& I had all the ingredients) so we got busy. Here is our yummy creation & my favorite little chef!

Sleepy Sarah

Sarah is still a great napper & typically does best if her nap begins early in the day. If we are hanging around the house she is usually down by 10:15 or so. Today I was keeping her up because we needed to go shopping before picking up Jolie from Mother's Day Out & she just couldn't make it. I was washing some dishes & when I turned around this is what I saw...
She's usually not a finger sucker. She's either teething or enjoying the yummy syrup from the waffle she just finished :)

You can click here to see Jolie asleep at the table. She was about 15 1/2 months old.

Sweet sisters

The girls haven't been feeling 100% today so we've had a lazy pajama day. They were playing so peacefully in the living room this morning I decided to check & see what they were up to. I found them happily playing in our chest where we store blankets. Also, notice that Sarah is wearing one of Jolie's nightgowns over her pjs. She brought it to me & ask me to put it on :)

A new milestone

Jolie is officially riding her bike (with some occasional help from mom). I was started to think Sarah would ride a bike before Jolie :)

Be My Valentine

Jolie was "signing" her Valentines for her friends tonight & I thought you'd enjoy seeing her in action. Sarah, of course, tries to get in on the action :)


Here are Jolie's Valentines. She painted all of them & helped me hunt for some of the letters :)

Here are the cute Valentines I made for Sarah's friends. One pic shows the names & the other shows the other sides of the cube.



Spring is in the air

After almost a week of 70+ degree weather I decided it was time to get some Spring clothes out of the closet. The girls looked so cute I took some pictures. We can't wait for Spring!


This picture totally reveals Jolie's fun personality! I love it!

My little stinkers

Sorry it's been so long since my last post. I haven't picked up my camera enough during the last week or so. I caught the girls playing in the sink in their bathroom today & took a couple of pictures. The funny thing about this scene is that it is no longer obvious who initiated this fun. Sarah loves the bathroom. I'm convinced that she has a sixth sense that tells her when one of the bathroom doors is left open because I find her hands in the toilet (yuck!) almost once a day!!! Lord help me! She is so fun! Can you tell she gave me her best "cheese" face in the first picture? I love these little stinkers.
