January FUN

January always seems to fly by due to being in Florida for the first week.  When we get home we are always ready to just be home and slow down a bit after the holidays.  

These girls are always pretending something.  This was "class picture day" at school.  

Caroline can empty a toy bin in a matter of seconds! 

How do they get so big so fast?

 I love when I walk in the room and I see all 4 of the girls sitting so close they are touching for no reason. 

Lots of lazy cuddling happens in the winter.

Oh Audrey! 

Caroline is VERY fast now! 

She was very busy giving everyone their orders. 

We had a few really warm winter days and we were excited to get outside. 

We even got to try out our new neighborhood park. 

I am pretty sure we played 1 million games of uno this winter.

I love when new crawlers get stuck in corners! 

We went on a field trip with Claire's class to see Pete the Cat at Clowes. 

I didn't think anyone could love their blanket as much as Claire and Audrey but I was wrong! 

Everything is better when the big girls get home from school. 

Cousin Charlotte came to play.  It's so cute to see the girls together.  

Charlotte doesn't seem to mind the big girls being all over her. 

Audrey and I went to Holliday Park with her class for a winter walk and to learn about where animals go in the winter. 

9 months old

Oh, this baby!  She is the best!  So sweet and fun but most importantly so loved by us and is the perfect addition to our family.  She is really part of the gang now.  She is all over the place and can officially keep up with her sisters.  She is crawling and pulling up on everything.  At any give time I can walk into a room to see all 4 girls crawling around  at top speed...which Caroline couldn't love more!  She is taking two naps a day, sleeping 12 hours at night, is starting to get good at eating baby food.  She is also waving and clapping.  She loves to dance and has a funny personality.  She is just like Claire was at this age. 

The music table never disappoints.  Her whole body wiggles to the music. 

This big plastic house it back upstairs....though, Mom and Dad don't love it our babies always do!

She keeps very busy all day long! 

She is literally always smiling. 

She pushes the music table around like it is a push toy. 

Show and Tell

Claire asked if she could take her baby sister for B show and tell. I tried hard to help her come up with a different idea...It didn't work.

You have to tell 3 things about the thing you share.

1. This is Caroline, she is my babiest sister

2. She never cries

3. She really likes me and milk.

All true! 

Then you answer questions from the class. 

Caroline stuck around to hear the rest of the class do their show and tell.

100th Day of School

Kindergarten has a huge celebration for the 100th day of school.  They dress like they are 100 years old for the day of fun. 

Claire loves a good dress up session.

8 months old

Our sweet girl is 8 months old.  She is the happiest baby ever!  Laid back and just takes it all in.  She doesn't know a stranger and giggles from the bottom of her toes at anything and everything.  Her sisters are still number one to her and Mom and Dad are a close second.  She is ready and probably able to crawl but we desperately wanted her to wait until after this trip to Florida so when she moved to her belly we always sat her back on her bottom.  

No better place to turn 8 months old than on the beach.

It was a good day!
