catchin up

Busy. Crazy. Chaos. Yup, that about sums it up... some moments caught along the way:

 Love birthday parties...

 Diggin into goodie bags :)

 A while ago, but, Zoo Lights

 A day off from school- at the Jumpy Place

 Daddy's pic, proud to be ready, dressed and out with the two

 Daddy's lovely at home hairdo :)

 Sleepy times sick with an ear infection...

 Sweet Ellie in line for picture day at school...

 Showing off some work...

 Our crazy kitties

Aurie at the park with daddy

 We love, love, love bubbles :) Aurie's rearing back for a blow...

 (hee hee...kind of sexy...off the shoulder here ;))

 Lia's the closest with our new kitties

 Classic Lia pouty face...

Aurie is the one melting us completely lately...good thing- it balances out the times when we find this or that bottle or tube of lotion, soap or toothpaste, opened up and squirted out all over the floor. Thank goodness too, for tile floors. She has developed so much from these videos a few weeks ago- words have come every day, still in adorable baby language, but very understandable- shoes, baby, Puff (the kitty), up, "peas"for please, down (to the kitties when they go up on the table), marshmallow (kind of garbled), mine, ball, "app" for apple, juice (pretty clear) and "guy"(for her stuffed animals).  We adore her lifted baby lips for "kisses" and laugh at her when she twirls around and around and her wand actions (which we don't know where that came from) as you can see in this video.
