Our Busy Little World
Aug. 29, 2006 - Some Silly Pictures
OK Grandmas, this one's for you (and everyone else who likes to see a million pictures!)
Naomi-Bear
Isabelle Sweeping
What I found when I walked into the bathroom. Naomi was standing with Alyssa-doll, patting her head while she "went potty". Poor dolly - I guess I'll have to teach Naomi to have the dollies sit down first!
Isabelle with these fabulous puzzle/word/cards that her Grandma Karen sent - you make the puzzle, then read the word - she LOVES them!
One of my favorites at the car show
Isabelle built this "city" of blocks and Lincoln Logs, and she was rather proud of it.
The girls got to cool off in the downtown fountain at the car show.
My birthday flowers and "wine"
My biggest little ballerina (can you tell she picked her own socks and shoes?)
My second biggest little ballerina
Hannah's showing us how long and pretty her hair is getting - I think I even see a curl!
Hannah (otherwise known as Penny Pannah Penae)
Aren't I cute in pink?
Isabelle wanted me to take a picture of how she stands up in her chair.
We tried the baby pack on Isabelle today. Isabelle was thrilled - Juliette not so much; methinks we'll wait a few more years :-)
Hanging out and watching the ice cream mix
Hannah got these dollies all cloth diapered up and is snuggling them to sleep.
Then she saw me with the camera and hammed it up
We had some lovely silly time tonight - pillows on the floor under the couch, jumping, bouncing, and flying off all played a part
More silly time
Yet more silly time with flying
And more still . .. .
Then it turned into dress-up silly time:
And dolly-dancing, dress-up silly time:
If you're wondering why Juliette's not in any of these silly pix, it's because she was safely crawling and drooling all over me the whole time:
One last picture: good morning sunshine!

Great pictures of the girls, and a happy belated birthday! It sounds like a special time. My husband wishes I could enjoy a glass of wine with him too, but alas, I break out in hives, so I can't even try to aquire a taste for it. Sparkling cider for me too.
Thanks for your comment on my blog. I wrote a post recently titled An Afternoon in Kathmandu about an experience in Nepal and I hope to write more soon about India.
We will most likely pick and choose too as far as curriculum goes, because it seems like they all have strong and weak points, and we wil try to pick the best for our family's needs and learning styles. It's exciting though, thinking about what we will do. For now, read, read, read! The older Mohan books are great, and I want to get some of Rod and Staff's other ones about kids in other countries too.
May the Lord bless you and your family today,
Rebeca

Your little women are so very adorable... I enjoyed every one of the pictures. Since we can't be close in distance, I love watching them grow in pictures!
Lots of Love and Kisses All Around,
Chris

Thank you for sharing all those wonderful pics! It's wonderful to know that their are other godly families out there, living their lives for Christ and raising their children for the Lord. It can sometimes feel like we are all spread out far and wide.
God bless you and your babies - how wonderful for you to realise NOW what a blessing they are - even in the midst of the hard times, the regular day to day stuff can sometimes get in our way of seeing the blessing. Thanks for the reminder.
In HIM~
