I am finally getting caught up...

The last couple of months seem to have flown by. I just got caught up with getting all of my pictures off of my camera since the girls' birthdays in February. So, I wanted to take an opportunity to share some more of what has been going on over the last few months. Leah has finished another session of swimming. She can actually do some true swim strokes now. She loves swimming and I hope that she sticks with it. We are taking a break this session because she will be starting T-ball in a few weeks. This was taken on Leah's birthday (2/10). I think it might be the first (or at least one of the few) where they are both looking and smiling! Leah just loves being Big Sister. She "takes care" of Amber. Leah does fuss a bit when she has to pick up Amber's mess! Amber has started to follow Leah around, hold onto her. It really is adorable. I have to remember these wonderful moments in the times that aren't so wonderful (like this morning at Church- ugh)!
This one of Leah and Nonna was taken after Leah's bowling party. We had to bribe Leah for that smile, but the picture turned out great!

So, I did get video posted of our skating trip with Tiffanie, Thea, and Delila the end of February, but here are a few pictures.


I have decided that until they are older, it is going to be impossible to get a posed picture of these girls! When we celebrated Thea's birthday just this last Sunday. I spent some time trying to get a posed picture (none of those turned out), then I noticed that they were all looking out the window together, so I ran outside and snapped some pictures, not the greatest quality, but they are all looking!! :)


Leah just finished a session of gymnastics. She is mastering her handstands and cartwheels and loves to flip on the bar. She would do this and swimming year round if we would let her, but she also wants to do other activities as well. We have decided that she has a 2 day activity limit, so she will have to do sessions for now! Not sure what we will do next year because she also wants to go back to dancing.

Yeah, I know, we are in BIG TROUBLE!



Last night we went to see Annie at the Minneapolis Children's Theatre (the last show for this season). It was fantastic. I highly recommend it to anyone with young kids. All the girls really enjoyed it. Thea fell asleep toward the end and she was completely out for the count! Leah said her favorite part was "everything, but when 'she' came in." The "she" that she is referring to is Miss Hannigan! She did have to come sit on my lap when Miss Hannigan was around.
