Keeps Me Laughing Most of the Time

We do a lot of laughing around here. Not all laughing, for sure....but pretty-much mostly it is laughing and giggles and very (very...) silly stuff. And it's mostly all good. One thing I like to do is let them sit on the kitchen counter and hang-out with me while I cook and clean and do kitchen-y things. And, as I scurry here and scurry there in the kitchen, they keep me giggling and as tickled as they are....At 3-years old, it doesn't take too much to make a giggle...but hey, doesn't take too much to get me to giggle either...

Of Polka Dots....


You know that feeling you get when you know you're going to get some great Kodak moments...and the lighting is good and the mood is good and the pony tails have the "je ne sais crois" just right-ness? You know, right?....Well, then why is THAT the time time my battery power gets deleted....I only had time for a few of these pictures...!!(i need a spare battery for my Canon DSLR)....

Ah well....always another day, another opportunity..... :)

Weekend Hangin'


The girls now have a ritual of taking their National Geographic magazines (thanks, Aunt Regina...very cool Christmas gift!!!) and scurrying off to their "secret" fort or their playhouse to read to each other....They don't want me around..."No Mommy, it's our 'madazeene"...


Here's Nicki reading to Sammi....

And Nicki on the ladder...


Getting ready for our neighborhood stroll over to Pat and Tracy's and then to Kathy's mailbox and then to Deborah's mailbox (our regular stops) with the CareBears...


After naptime snacks.....anything with dip is a hit...


I just really like this shot with Sammi and Ed.



And fairy wings....it's all about fairies and ponies and princesses...Have to admit that I find it all very very cute. I honestly don't know what I'd do if I had boys...I never (truly) pined for boys either...But girls...well girls just rock, don't they....It's hard to get too-cute for me...I really do enjoy it!! :)
