Vignettes

Attempting diaperlessness on Evany-

it was cute, but not really working yet...

They have begun playing together so well- for the most part...

They like to pretend they sleep in the same room,

it will be coming again too soon for Mommy. Sigh... I will miss my sleep.

This is how Sterling and I found Evie after nap one day.

She has suddenly become so concerned about what she is wearing- out and to bed.

All she wants is "Pink!"

We decided ahead of time last Saturday to just have fun and not do any work!

We are usually so goal-oriented! This is was a nice change and so fun!

First, we went for a walk in the park.

And then we took the kids to the civic fountain again.

It was about 95° so we prepared well for Mommy's comfort- and a good thing too!

I felt a little silly at first because no one else there had camp chairs and an umbrella, but as soon as I was settled I just felt bad for everyone else! ;)

I still swelled up like a hot marshmallow...

Maybe Doug just likes to be buried - it gives him an excuse to lay around.

We've decided that Evie is All Girl!

She really loves the boas we got from the Dollar Tree.

She proudly displays all four of them around.

And she likes to play with her castle

We have eliminated Sterling's afternoon nap finally,

but he still gets a little tired mid-afternoon...

Oh, she also picked out a bucket from the dollar store- of course it had to be pink!

She uses it to carry around her boas and/or Bun-Bun and Kitty.

And Sterling is All Boy!

When we were camping we gave the kids showers

and recently Sterling wanted to try it out again.

He was so excited to be a big boy and kept telling Doug, "Oh, thank you Dadda!"
