Matching

Grandma Sue sent the girls these cute matching dresses.



Reese was trying to be helpful and get Maleah to smile....forgetting that she too needed to look and smile! :)



Once I got a good look from Reese Maleah was done smiling!



Then Reese was done with taking pictures in the dresses....guess Maleah was too.



But they saved their best looks for last!

My favorite day of the week...

Is Wednesday! Well with our current schedule that is. Reese and I head out first thing in the morning to do a "mommy" workout at the track. Daddy stays home with Maleah. We running sprints and Reese cheers "Go Go Mommy! You can do it!" Then we do sit ups, push ups, and lungs and Reese does them with us and cheers for us too.

After track Grammie and Gramps take Reese to story and craft time at the library. Then they take her out to lunch. This means I go home, while Maleah naps and have some "mommy" time.

Reese comes home super excited and we play a little, feed Maleah her lunch then it is naps for both girls and more free time for me!

Can you see why I LOVE Wednesdays! So thankful for my hubby and parents and now sister too who make this great day for us!

Sweet baby girl

Enjoying seeing Maleah's sweet personality come out more and more...



She is working on moving...mostly rolling to move....she can get her arms up, but not her tummy for crawling...



And she is dropping that third nap. So we try to keep her up about two hours between each nap so that the gap from her last nap and bed time is not too long. That means Reese often starts her afternoon nap before Maleah. Here she is watching her sister sleep.... exciting stuff! :)

Rolling...

Reese has recently discovered how much fun it is to roll down the hill in our back yard.



She kinda just throws herself down the hill...



It was a lot of fun, until we discovered 8 bug bites at bath time...she will be taking a break from rolling for now. :)

Never would have thought of it...



I just saw this as kinda an eye sore, meant to have that rose bush climb it. But a friend said "Have you ever thought of putting a white sheet over it for outdoor movies?" Brilliant! I love having smart friends! Now to plan a summer/fall movie night...

Organizing doll clothes

Reese is finally able to dress her dolls. Hurray! This means that the basket of doll clothes was getting dumped out everyday and spread all over the living room. Who can blame her, she was just looking for the clothes she wanted for her doll.

Got this organizer for one dollar at a yard sale and now it is our doll clothes organizer. Works pretty well!



Can you see that we really need some more toys in our house? Poor kids have nothing to play with....maybe that is why they play with boxes. ;)



By the way, my friend from high school writes this great organizing blog. You should check it out, she has some good ideas!

Cleaning skills passed along

Daddy is already teaching Maleah how to vacuum and sharing his love of cleaning. He is using his Dyson that he got for Christmas...it is awesome! Does really well getting all that pet hair.



Looks like she is excited to give it a try! :)
