Catching UP

 

Our blog ran out of storage space so the past 2 weeks we haven't been updating, but found a way to fix it without buying more storage so here are some great pictures from the past few weeks,

 

I taught Emma how to safely use a glue gun to make snowflake ornaments, everything went fine until she ran by me while I was using it and swiped her arm, nothing a tinkerbell bandaid couldn't fix.

Lauren took her first swim while we visited a hotel in Illinois over thanksgiving

 

 

Outdoors with Big Sis

Emma wanted to play outside when we got home today, Lauren slept part of the time and then woke up so we put her in the swing and then she went down the slide with Emma.  Emma loved pushing her in the swing and holding her on the slide.

Lauren Love

Lauren was trying to be like mommy and doing leg stretches while grabbing her toes all while sitting on Papa's lap this week.  She was chilling with daddy on the couch watching a movie and got her first real bath in the tub with Emma, I wanted her to breathe in the bath vapors since both girls (entire family) have really bad colds right now.  Emma and I made reindeer sandwiches for dinner tonight, they were really cute and it was something she actually ate the whole thing and wanted more.

Tumble Stars

Emma goes to Tumble stars class on Thursday mornings, she is learning to do cartwheels, balance beam, bars and other tumbling skills, she loves it!

First bites of cereal

Lauren took her first few bites of oatmeal tonight, she didn't like it, the doctor just said we could practice with a spoon for the next 1.5 months till 6 months when they start solids. 

Z Day - We made it!

We made it to Z day and finished the alphabet, good thing because Emma told me over the weekend I'm tired of letter days - too funny. We celebrated with our friends Liz, Lydia and Makayla by going to breakfast at Zuppas and spending a few freezing cold minutes at the park.  Ryan's parents are visiting to help while he is in PA at a conference, Emma and Nana made a scrapbook of pictures of Emma and Lauren.

Raspberry Fingers

Emma thought it was hilarious to put raspberries on her fingers today, she ate almost an entire package in one sitting.
