These girls are so goofy.

Before Bed

The girls get a little crazy and like to wrestle daddy.

They always end up in tears, yet continue to beg for more crazy time with Ammon!

We use our aprons more for painting than cooking.

 

I adore kid art.  I love it on the fridge, on the bulletin board, on the sidewalk  - not so much on walls and skin.

First Snowfall

We got dressed

played in the snow  

got dressed in pajamas again

and drank hot chocolate.

Fancy

I'm sure stores hate us.  These girls go nuts!  They want to (and usually do) touch everything, try it on, and yell "I want that!" India has already taught Maya how to pose for pictures.   Maya points out all the naked mannequins.  I can't help smile though.

DI and Park Date

The Centerville DI is not so shabby.  All of these books were a $1 or less.  I let the girls keep three out and the rest are for birthdays and Christmas for the next few years.  Goodbye library fines. 

Ammon and I had a Maya date at In-n-Out and the park while India was at a birthday party.  Playing tag, make believe, and swing chicken (trying not to knock Maya over as she haphazardly walked through our swing paths) was the best fun!

I Like September Fall

Change in the air

Ripe peaches

Neighborhood walks

Open windows

 

 

Make-up

Sleepy

The first picture is Maya sleeping on and in the doggie blanket (icky).  My poor baby Maya sleeps anywhere but in her bed: under the bed, in India's bed, under India's bed, under the fireplace, behind the door, in the dollhouse, etc. It's weird. Ever since we switched her to the toddler bed, she prefers the floor. 

The next picture is Maya alseep under the piano during piano lessons. PS - we weaned her off a binky when she was one years old.  But she manages to find Wesley's reject binkies ALL the TIME!  And when I can't handle whining anymore, I  give her the binky.  Go ahead - judge me.   

The third picture is a time India and Maya put themselves to bed EARLY, together, and in their clothes.  So rare.  So wonderful.  I love these beautiful punks.

The girls were both asleep at 8:30pm last night

. . . and that is only the second time they have ever gone to bed that early!
