Sisters!

Sisters!

Our home now has "the girls room." Kate moved in with Jane, which makes both of them very happy! It got a lot "cozier" and I think they'll have a lot of fun.

Can her smile get any bigger (or headband too?-thanks Jane)

BRUCE the Builder!

Can we fix it? Yes we can!
This morning we drove to Rochester to go to the Strong Museum of Play for their opening of the new Bob the Builder exhibit. Bruce LOVED it! He was so excited that he got to meet Bob and play on all the fun things. Jane just loves everything in the museum and had a lot of fun playing everywhere. She did like picking flowers "with Wendy" in sunflower valley, and playing dress-ups. Kate slept through most of it. I enjoyed seeing my friend & her 2 cute kids again, and Brad enjoyed spending time with all of us.
Just in case you wanted to listen to the Bob the Builder theme music or play games, here is the link:

*Plus a bonus picture of Baby Cakes with lots of stickers her new friends put on her.
(Thanks Craig and Lori for the outfit!)

Kate's Head up high

Here's our sweet, strong, Kate holding her head up.
(This video doesn't really do her justice, she can hold it for a long time.
She gets a little ticked at the end though.)
*Yesterday I put her on the bed on her tummy and bent down to get something and when I looked at her, she had flipped over onto her back- oh no, now I really have to start watching her.

Bed's, Trains, and Popcorn

Bruce's favorite things:
Last Saturday B build Bruce's bed~ half way~ it still needs drawers and paint.

We got this train table for cheap in the classifieds.
It's all natural wood so it's not all cute and painted like other "Thomas" tables.
He loves that he can reach anywhere on the table to play.


Bruce loves to eat popcorn.
Yesterday I found him like this. He had gotten everything out himself and even poured the kernels in and was waiting for me to come plug it in.

Bowling!

Yeah! We found the bowling ally and sure had a great time.
We were really happy because it was clean, non-smoking, and a fun atmosphere

Footage of Bruce Bowling:


Jane liked picking out the bowling balls.

Kate liked smiling on the couches
THANK YOU STILLSONS for the cute "shoes"

B and Kate on a couch.
It's so cool because when your not bowling you sit on these big couches (tables are behind the couches.)

I won!
