Lately...

Well, it's once again been a while since I've posted something...I just need to realize that once a month is a great accomplishment, especially while I'm pregnant. Anyway, as most January's have been for us, this month has been pretty uneventful, but it's been nice that way and relaxing! So here are just some pictures of the girls, since that it what this blog is mainly focused on anyway.

These two pictures are of the girls playing so well together. They have their moments as most siblings do, but for the most part they play very well together. The one on the left is of them playing "Prince and Bride" as they call it. They alternate who plays the Bride...it's pretty cute! Then the one on the left is of Kayley reading to Cora, which happens often and Cora has this new small addiction....sucking on a pair of eyes from Mr. Potato Head as a binkie. She has never used a binkie and at first it was cute, but then she started needing it to sleep, etc and so I had to hide it! But also take note of her sweater. It has a big pink heart on it. She calls this her Grandma Edna shirt. Back when my Grandmother passed away, the girls asked how she died and I told them she died of a heart attack...well they didn't know what that meant so I told them it was when your heart stops working correctly. So now when she wears this sweater she talks about Grandma Edna dying because her heart stopped working. Although it's a bit disturbing, it's really cute.

About a week ago we watched Katrina and Olivia for the day on a Saturday. Bass Pro was having a Boat Show day and they were doing a free boat making for kids and refreshments. So we took the girls to go make a boat. They loved it because they got to paint their own boats. Here's a picture of them hard at work on each of their boats!
We also watched Katrina earlier today and while I was doing the dishes, they were all three playing quietly in the other room, so I didn't disturb them as most of the time if one of them (namely Katrina and Cora) ran into the other one for whatever reason, the other one would come to me and say, "she hit me!" This occurred probably about 50 times that day! So needless to say, when they were playing quietly I did not disturb them! So, they then came in showing me their artwork! Apparently the girls had a lip gloss necklace that I had forgotten they had (I usually don't do real/fake makeup so it doesn't end up all over my house!) Luckily Kayley told me she didn't like wearing lip gloss, so it was the two misfits below...but it was funny! And actually after I washed it all off, I couldn't get quite all of it off and I have to say that the purple color actually looked pretty good on Cora...I think that might be her color when she is old enough to wear makeup!
