Halloween

I can't believe I'm this far behind...

The girls were bumblebees this year (although I think they look a bit more like convicts!) Needless to say, they loved Halloween. Eva, the little rebel, decided she didn't like being told what to say when we would knock on doors, so she would make up her own saying, "MERRY CHRISTMAS!" "HAPPY MOTHERS DAY" or "I'M NOT SAYING THAT" were her favorites.

Lyla figured out that being little and cute had it's advantages and would just say "more" until she felt she had received an adequate amount.

I love these two!

The Big 4!

This is rather late news, but my little girl turned FOUR! I have nearly been banished from celebrating birthdays with my kids because I turn into such a bawl baby. She's loving being a big grown up girl! Her only request was to go to the Children's museum. And for her own barbie. Sigh. I was kind of hoping to avoid ever owning one. HA. HA.

Crazy birthday morning madness! Eva was not all that impressed with my breakfast man, but Lyla at least seemed happy with it.

We spent alllll day at the museum! I have to admit I think I have as much fun playing with the stuff as the kids do! All went well aside from having to run Lyla to the emergency room in the middle of the day. She hurt her arm while we were there and I figured it was broken, but it ended up being a dislocated elbow. OUCH. The doctor yanked it back into place and told us to go back to playing at the museum. It was actually pretty weird.

I think she spent an hour straight just playing with these little cars.

I'm thinking Lyla got the better end of the deal here. :)
