...we finally got our pictures back that we took last month with my mom's family. Poor Gracie was feeling pretty sick, but Charley hammed it up and stole the show in all of them. They turned out so cute!










...Char took Woody to school with her every day.


...we had dinner at Naga and then ran into Nick, Noah, and JJ at the frozen yogurt place. The kids had fun running around like crazy people.



...the girls watched movies together in bed. Char insisted on the Toy Story/Incredibles/Cars pack of boy panties, and they look so cute on her little tush.


...they had picture day at school, and the pics turned out uber adorable, as per usual.



...they talked me into bringing their Minnie chairs downstairs, since I had the stomach flu Monday and Tuesday, and they couldn't play outside.


...Auntie Allison brought her new puppy over for a visit. The girls loved him and couldn't get enough.





...they snuggled with each other in bed that night. I love how much they love each other.


...I got my nails done in anticipation of our trip to Cali that weekend.


...the girls fell asleep while I packed our suitcases Friday night.



...we spent Saturday in Newport and Sunday running amok in Disneyland.

More vacation pictures coming soon!

...Char was sleeping so peacefully Monday morning that I didn't want to wake her up. ...she made me a pretty picture at school with chalk. ...she continued her obsession with the easel and colored (and watched Toy Story ) while waiting for Daddy to get home from work. Hooray for panties! ...it got cold and windy again, but we played outside anyways. Isaac played catch with the neighbor boys, while JJ flew the kite and Char strutted her stuff. ...the girls danced around the living room. There is an iTunes Radio station called 'Frozen Radio' that the girls are crazy about. They play random Disney songs, and we listen to it all.the.time. (After watching this a few times, I realized that Char was trying to sing "friend in" as in "You've Got a Friend In Me".) ...Grace put Charley to bed by tickling her face. ...the girls got cake pops. Yep, for breakfast. ...we got to school a few minute

Mommy-Daughter Night

Thursday night, Isaac went to play poker with some of Sunstate's biggest customers (and soon to be customers). Since he left around 4:30 and didn't come home until well after Grace and I were asleep, we got to have a whole mommy-daughter night! I get to spend every night with her, but having quality time with just the two of us is pretty rare. This means that nights alone with mom get to be extra special treats for both of us! When Daddy left, Grace asked "ah da da?" about one hundred times. Once she got over the fact that he was gone, we had a lot of fun. We started the night out watching Wall-E and building castles out of Mega Blocks. Then, Grace helped me unload the dishwasher while our dinner finished cooking: She's the best helper ever! We had pasta, corn, garlic bread, and cut up Beddar Cheddar brats for dinner; some of Grace's favorite things: After that it was bath time.  Once she got all clean, we played with her Dora foam soap. Grace really

Junior Ranger Day

Saturday was Junior Ranger Day at the Water Safety Center at Lake Mead.   Isaac's brother, Zacarias, was working and invited us to come down and check it out.   We're always up for anything that the girls might have fun at, so we got ready and headed down to the lake. It was right next to where my parents dock their boat, so it was pretty easy to find.   When we first got there, Grace was a little shy and skeptical about everything. It took her a while to warm up.   We found Uncle Zac by the fire truck and Grace hesitantly climbed inside with him:     She was a little afraid until I took her to the front of the trucks and showed her the lights. Then she thought it was "sooo cool!"       Charley was pretty curious and kept wanting to check everything out:       Grace saw Uncle's helmet and thought that was pretty neat. Then Daddy checked it out, too:       Since Charley was so curious, Daddy gave her a b
