I cannot believe it has been nearly two months since I last posted about what has been going on in our life. Needless to say, it's been a lot in the past two months.
The girls are growing up so big. They are both getting along so well and learning to share, that's been a big obstacle at our house. Evie hasn't caught onto the whole sharing part yet, and Bella doesn't understand why she can't play nice. In addition to dance, Bella has started taking swim lessons. She is loving every minute of it, and it is never easy getting her out of the pool. She attends with two other girls and we can definitely tell Bella has no fear. She willingly dunks her entire face under the water, whereas the other girls are afraid to even put their noses in the water. It's a sight to see! We've seen how truly independent and brave she really is!
Here we are at cousin Katie's baby shower... all the girls with Nana Jo.
The girls loved playing out in the snow, but the weather has started to warm up lately. Santa brought a toboggan for Christmas, so we decided to try it out one day. Bella loved being pulled around by Papa, and Evie went for a small ride but didn't enjoy the bumps too much.
Today Nana Jo turns 90 years young! It was wonderful to spend breakfast with her. No the cake was not for breakfast.... it was our breakfast dessert! We had a big party for her, and Bella really loved getting ready for that. She knows that after Nana Jo's birthday it is Easter and then her birthday. We've been working hard to plan her Pinkalicious Party, she can hardly wait!
Ahhh Evelyn, so sweet, and such a terror at times. She has started crawling, climbing up stairs, and straining to hold onto anything to prop herself up. Nights are still a little rough for us. She was doing so well until the daylight savings time change and then for some reason she thought it was acceptable to get up again. Someone please fill her in! She loves to eat, that's for sure. Her favorite foods are crackers, cheese chunks, and the magnets from the fridge. Granted she doesn't eat them, but they are constantly in her mouth. She also likes to play with Bella's kitchen set, play with the dishes in the cubbard and dishwasher, and pull Hunter's hair. There is rarely a dull moment around this household. Mommy is still doing great working at the library and enjoying her time with the girls. Daddy is still going strong at school. This summer he might be working rather than going to school, but that's still undecided yet. Otherwise, all is well. We hope everyone is having a great spring!
