The Zoo

I didn't really take any Christmas pictures, so I pretty much skipped that blog. However, there is one of Addi in her PJ's on Christmas morning. This blog really is to show off our first pony-tail. Now that's blogworthy. It stayed in Emma's hair for about 45 minutes, but the point is that we had one!

The girls have been climbing out of their beds for about a month now. This is how I found them when I checked on them before bed tonight.

The girls got a swing set from their Nanou (Jarrid's grandmother) as a late birthday/early christmas present. Since it's 80 degrees in December, we're actually getting to enjoy it!

The girls were supposed to be harlequins (mimes) for Halloween. Addison, however, did NOT want her make-up on, so I didn't put it on either one. So they walked around like this, and no one could really tell what they were (but they were cute!)

More pics, couldn't fit them all in the last post.

We went to the beach today, for the first time this year. The girls loved it! I put it off because the last time we went, all they did was eat sand. I dressed them in sundresses hoping to get some before pics...well, after the ride on the causeway onto the island, Emma puked all over everything.

Turns out to be for the best, 'cause as soon as we hit the beach they ran straight for the water! Usually they're scared, Emma especially, of water, but they dove right in (literally) and laughed for at least 1 hour straight!

We finally got them to leave, and they both crashed in the car. After about an hour of driving around they woke up, and we went to the Rainforest Pyramid. Addison loved it, wanted to jump in with the pirannahs. Emma hated every minute of it. I don't know when she's ever even seen a snake or a frog to learn to be scared of them, but she was hanging on to me for dear life.

After the Rainforest, we let them play for a few minutes on the jungle gym. You can see how that went (that's Addison going down on her face). We left and went and had dinner.

Just a couple of pics from the other night...cool kid Emma, and Addi working at the computer and talking on her "phone" (the mouse).

Just a few quick birthday pics. Hopefully more coming soon. . .

The girls let me sleep in a little this morning. This is what I woke up to.

Our friends Brook and Kyle had a premature Baby Clay a year ago (today I think). So last night they had a little celebration after church.

People have been complaining about the lack of new pictures. Well, it's hard to get cute ones. These aren't cute, but they're current!

Happy Easter!
