What I hoped for!

The girls just love to play together (sometimes) now. I am so glad that they get along. They are both so good at pretending. A new favorite is to be puppies and have mommy throw "treats" from her pocket for the puppies to catch in their mouths.

Andi's Pixie hat

So the side petals can go up to make it more flower-like or down (as pictured) for more of "Canuc" hat. It isn't one of my favorite creations, but cute enough. It helps to have such a cute model.

Glee is...

avacado ice cream, oddly enough! I thought it was gross, but the girls both enjoyed it! I don't know that I want to go through the hastle of making it again though!

Yogurt...

RULES~

Just be happy!

Tenna was very tired last night. She started to have a bit of a breakdown while she and Albert were "doing dishes." I asked her if she wanted help moving her chair..."no,".....does she want to use the rag and wash dishes...."no,"....do you want to pout...."no." So I said "Well then you better just be happy and smile and laugh!" To which she promptly forced out a laugh and a smile. Of course this had us all laughing in about ten seconds. What a good kid!

Las Vegas

The girls and I just got back from a visit to Las Vegas to see Sarah and Gracie. While we were there we went to the Spring(something) preserve. It was interesting, though maybe a bit too old for the kids in saome respects. When you enter you go through a "canyon," with caves and animal noises, etc. Tenna decided the cayote call was her favorite and continues to use it at random intervals. Gave a few old folks the chuckles.
They had a lot of exhibits concerning water (being in the desert and all). Andi enjoyed the granite fountains that turned from the water moving in them. I thought it was so neat that so much was accessable to touch!
Tenna and Gracie don't quite have the stick-to-it-ive-ness to be archeaologists.

The playground

The playground at the preserve was pretty cool. Tenna thought the snake was definately an item of interest, but maybe not so good. It made an easy game when we had to go home though....run bunny run, snakes comin'!

Play time!

The little play area had a train, build-a-birds-nest, sand bed, turtle spinners, and of course a water trough. This was the favorite part of the preserve.
Tenna and water....that kid loves to "make dishes."
Andi is a bit of a starter. She was laying down in the sand bouncing her booty, and there is bound to be another kid who will follow! I don't think her mom thought it was so funny that her 3 year old was doing it though, oh well.
Now, I like this picture because I think Tenna is very cute, but also. can you see what is going on with the kids behind her? ;)
