Well, we've kinda been MIA for awhile.  Really, I've been lazy.  Honestly we haven't taken many pics over the past few months, so you haven't missed anything!

Here is what a normal day looks like for us right now.  Ella was helping me pick my outfit for our date night last night, hence the heels (they are definitely not the norm for me these days).  THen she decided to color while Reese played dress-up.  If you ask me, with the onesie and the heels, I think she looks straight out of a J-Lo video! Ha Ha.

We'll try and post more frequent.  With our impending move, we'll have lots of activity going on here, so should be fun and interesting!

Much Love!

Disneyland!!!

We spent Thanksgiving week in Anaheim, CA with my whole family.  We rented a house walking distance to Disneyland and had an amazing time!!  2 days at Disneyland - and believe it or not - no melt downs between all 4 kids!!!  The house had a pool, so the older kids got to do some swimming.  And of course we had a great Thanksgiving meal there too.  The look on Ella's face meeting the princesses and seeing the castle and all the disney magic was just priceless.

I teared up as I first walked down mainstreet.  It brought back such great memories and I was thrilled that I got to share them with my daughters!

Ella was "shell shocked" meeting the princesses.  By the time she got to Snow White, she couldn't speak! :-)

Peter Pan - The 1st Ride!

Today we celebrated Reese's birthday.  We did celebrate at home Thursday as a family, but today she had all her baby friends for a party.  Thanks so much to Ali and Marissa who hosted for us since our kitchen is under construction.  We had such a great time and thank you to everyone who was able to come!

Play time for Reese

Just a little video of Reese playing by herself!

Halloween 2011

We had so much fun parading our little princess and fairy around with us this Halloween.  Ella was Snow White, and when she kept her headband on, she really looked the part!  Reese made a perfect little Tinkerbell!  Ella seemed a little bummed that Reese couldn't fly though.  We went to a festival at our church on Saturday and then on Halloween we trick or treated on our block with Ella's friend James (played the role of a Husky football player) from 2 doors down and her new friend Jackson from down the street.

Fall in Seattle

Someone help me!

My favorite place to take pictures in Seattle is at Greenlake when the leaves have started turning and falling.  We were a little early, but last week there was a beautiful sunny day so we had to take advantage.  Trying to get 1 child to pose for nice pictures is one thing.  Trying to get 2 is a whole different ball game.  I was the crazy Mom in the park yelling "Reese smile" about a thousand times and "Ella, too close to the lake".  Yup, that was me ruining people's peaceful walks.  Oh well, we got some good ones!

Our little tree hugger!

Reese takes her first steps!

Reese has started walking while holding onto a car.  She did it at U Village yesterday, and then at home last night.  She seems so proud of herself.  This video is so funny though, because when she hits the hard wood, man, she loses control!
