House Progress!

I have been asked by several people how our house is coming along.

The answer is, it is!

Finally!

Here are a few pics that are pretty boring to most of you guys... but it represents the light at the end of the tunnel for us. I am so ready to get out of this apartment.







shhh... don't tell the builder we weren't wearing our obligatory hard hats.

Peek-a-boo!


This was actually maybe 2 weeks ago. We now have brick and cabinets!

A girl's day

It's been awhile since we've had a girl's day, so I spent Saturday afternoon with my little beauties.

We started out with a Chili's lunch. Yum.

Then did some shopping.



Followed by a pedicure.





Back home with some DQ treats. Oh how I love these sweet girls.

We were supposed to do 5 things... so then I painted their fingernails. 5 items completed. Check Check.

Little reader

Abby loves everything about 1st grade. I think between the girls, she will be our more studious one. She loves her teacher and she even gets to see Austin's 1st grade teacher an hour every day (who we love). So overall, 1st grade is going extremely well!

I would almost say the girls would be mirror image twins if they were identical. Abby is left handed, Emily is right. Emily loves to write and draw, Abby does not. Abby loves to read, Emily does not. Abby is little miss social, Emily is not. Emily is the sweetest little thing, Abby is too, but she is a little more spirited. :) Maybe the one thing they have in common is they love princesses. And looking pretty.

Why does Elton John pop in my mind from this photo? Quite the tiny dancer, errr tiny reader.

Cole's 1st Haircut

You know it's time for a haircut when your sisters start putting ponytails in your hair.

Goodbye blond locks!

The only way to keep him from screaming was to stick a lollipop in his mouth. And that really didn't help much either.

Back to happy at home.

I think he aged a year after his haircut! :( Baby boy is growing up!
