It's another strangely warm day for February, and the little girls are playing nicely on their "balance beam" outside:




A few animals joined in,

Happy Birthday, Sophia

Here is a birthday post for Sophia, a day late. She had a party and it was a lot of fun, but I was too busy and then too tired to blog about it. Here are a few photos:

The party guests did shrinky-dinks (fun!)


And we had strawberry cupcakes


Yum!


Here's the big 8 year old!

Thursday Update

Things have been a bit hectic, not much time for blogging. Right now I'm listening to Maggie barking at Margaret outside, Sophia screaming at me from her room, and Anna getting into the knives on the kitchen counter...better make this short!

A few gratuitous pictures:

Crazy Ellie and Anna (Sophie took this one)

Bedhead Anna


Anna just started the dishwasher again, so I'm off...
