Swim Lessons

We just finished swim lessons. Hannah has come so far, she is really swimming now! She has even learned to not plug her nose and use both arms to swim. This was a big accomplishment for her. Lily is a fish. She is always under water. Her teacher commented on how she hardly ever comes up for air. She is still working on her strokes. I am so proud of them and feel much more confident about going to the pool with 3 kids.

Cooking with L

While H had a friend over yesterday L and I baked cookies. We had so much fun. She is like a little Martha Stewart. She loved to cook especially things that are sweet. She wanted to try on my apron that my Grandmother made. I told her I could make her a matching one and she got really excited. I love spending time with my kids one on one.

Self portraits

Today we decided to do self portraits. I love the pics they came up with. L was very deliberate and took her time. It had to be perfect. H drew herself without her two teeth and her scar on her forhead. I think its interesting what they saw. We then painted them in. L enjoyed that so much she decided to continue it upstairs on N's carpet. Fun times!

N is now 4 months old!

I cant believe he is 4 months old already. He is growing fast. His chubby legs barely fit into this bumbo seat. He is such a joy to have around and a very happy baby. He still isnt sleeping through the night but he is sleeping in his crib. We are thankful for small steps.

I sure do love my boy!!

Who does he look like?

Happy Easter

It is the most beautiful time of year here with all the flowers blooming. It happened to be a perfect day for Easter. The girls enjoyed their baskets including their mermaid dolls. I got N a bathing suit and a couple little toys. Nana and Papa H got the girls 2 princess dresses and N a handsome outfit for Easter. Later that night we had a fun family time decorating eggs. I decided not to be picture happy with that moment but to just enjoy the time with them. Sorry there are no pictures of this.

Playtime with friends

We went and played with our friends today. My friend Catherine has a baby girl about 3 weeks older than N, although he is quite a bit bigger than she is. The girls love playing with her son. He has the best dress up outfits. Its a nice change from princess ball gowns.
