first day of preschool

 (I had to take this picture because before Mya got out of the car because she insisted on sticking Mr. Bear's ear in her nose (it's her comfort thing--weird...I know). After a minute of snuggling him, she decided she could leave him behind.

sunday mornings

we have a lot of time to kill on sunday mornings so we have to do a variety of activities to keep the kids entertained. today we took a walk around the neighborhood and played with the camera when we arrived home. both girls love the camera and ask to take pictures daily.

cozy mornings

We spend a lot of time around the house in our pajamas. It makes for really cozy mornings. I happen to love when the mornings work out just right.

random pictures from summer

I'm sorry I've been absent. You have no idea how much work it was to just keep up on my normal blog. But I have a few minutes as Tim cuddles Mya before bed so I thought I'd just post a few pictures of the girls in Milwaukee. They both seem to love it here. I guess they love it because I love it. I am so much happier here (minus the frequent irritability caused by pregnancy).

lollipop, lollipop, oh lolly...lolly...lollipop

Mya found this enormous lollipop in our pantry last week. I've been hiding it for a long time, but she discovered it much to my dismay. She makes the biggest mess every time she licks it. But she loves it, and subsequently...I do too.
