My Little Performer

Holden loves to sing and make up her own songs and dances. Her biggest hit (so far) was

"the moon is out....in the sky....tonight....the moon is out...in the sky...tonight...the moon is out...in the sky...tonight..." ***claps and cheers*** "hey! I'm not finished yet...the moon is out...in the sky...tonight..." you get the idea

This morning she informed me I was to take my coffee and sit on the bench so I could watch her "new"performance. Ev joined me and really added to the comic relief of an already hysterical video. My kids are fab!



Hope you all enjoyed! And I hope Everett forgives me for sharing his nakedness with the world!

Spring Fever


s


If you were wondering, this is what it looks like.



We spent an hour before dinner outside in the sunshine (and twilight) playing. After a gloriously warm weekend and the beautiful week we have had, I declared it official....we all have spring fever.

Gramma and Opa were in town last weekend for a nice visit. No big agenda, we all just hung out, ate a lot, and felt for baby kicks!








Oh, and if you were wondering what Holden is hysterical about in the first picture, here ya go
