An Amazing Time

We are having an amazing time as a family of four! We are excited about Thanksgiving and Christmas Break. AS a working mother, I can't wait for some time off to be with my girls. Our week consists of work, school, Awana, dance, Women's bible study, church and more. Sometimes I only have time to read people's blogs, but not write on my own.

Both girls are growing so fast. I am working with Mary-Kate on Hooked On Phonics. She is learning a lot at school, but I like working with her too. She loves to draw, count, and "read" to Mady. She is constantly singing and smiling. She is a drama queen. She went to her first play last weekend and didn't say a word. She makes our house come alive.

Mady is rolling over and smiling a lot. She is really laid back. This is good because MK isn't. MK can get Mady laughing out loud! She has also taught her to spit. Got to work on that. The only time Mady gets mad is when she can't get her thumb just right in her mouth. I have tried to keep her thumb out of there, but it is a 24/7 job I tell you. She loves grabbing objects and hair. Those quiet ones you have to watch out for. Ha!

I bought these at the Mistletoe Market!


This picture is much clearer!

Can't believe we are here now, compared to...

Have a great weekend!

What an adorable dress! Precious girls. Your weeks sound like mine. I am also looking forward to Thanksgiving and Christmas break. I love it when my girls are home from school and I can spend time with them.

I can't believe how big your sweet little girls are getting!! The dress is adorable.

Just curious...have you thought about a paci instead of Mady's thumb? Kale sucked his thumb and Tyler sucked a paci... the paci was so much easier to get rid of. I was just wondering.
