Sisters!

Oatmeal Bonanza!

Cousins!

I am so glad we get to see these guys grow up together...they have so much fun! Dean is such a fun little guy already that I just know they have so many fun years to come playing together...

...And Kaylee Breaks Leg.

Yes, we have 2 kids in casts at the same time. Unbelievable! Poor little Kaylee took a little stumble and twisted her foot real bad ending up with a "toddler fracture" of her tibia and fibula. I actually had thought she hurt her head or something and called 9-1-1! Luckily she was ok...but soon we found she wouldn't crawl or try to stand or walk. After some visits to the urgent care and x-rays we found that she did have a fracture.

When I brought Kaylee home from her casting appointment Kendall ran over and said, "Oh Kaylee, you have a cast! It's so cute!!" What a sisterly bond!

Now excuse me, I have to go lock up my 3rd kid before he breaks something!

Kendall Breaks Arm!

...and she's ok. I mean, she did break her arm but look at her. Can you see why I almost didn't bring her in to get checked out? It was a fracture of her radius bone and luckily not too bad of a break. It hasn't slowed her down really. She has learned that doctors=stickers.

Cast is off in 3 weeks.

My rough n' tough girl!

Mama Mia, Pizza!

I love making homemade pizza dough- especially because I have the easiest recipe ever!! The girl's were bugging me while I was trying to cook tonight so I had a lightbulb moment *ding!* to give them each a little ball of dough to play with while I finished dinner.

Since the dough is vegan (no eggs), they were free to taste-test it as well.

And the pizza was good, too!

Holiday Visit from Omi and Auntie Lizzy

We were spoiled by a visit from some of our favorite people and warm holiday weather...yummy fudge balls, Loving Hut, homemade streusselkuchen, mineral water, amazing parking spots, daily naps, playdough, fun movies and lots of "what if" scenarios...fun times!
