Christmas 2014!

 Sarah bean.  :)
 Christmas house bunnies!!  They have been so great for the girls.  This is Cookie in Maggie's lap.  I felt weird after I met someone with the name Cookie, but whatever.  lol 
This is Winky.  The girls are learning how to be slow and calm around them and how to take care of them.  So far they are doing really well learning how to use the litter box.  Were getting there.  They are good outside their cage, but still sometimes miss their litter box in their cage.  They say it takes about six weeks.  So hopefully soon I won't be cleaning it every day.  It's a good learning experience.  I've never had house bunnies before.
 They are so soft.  They are mini-rex so they are very very soft.
 Look at my pig house!!!
 Cookie.

 Cookie in the litterbox.
 Mama in her new flannel from Granny and Grandpa.  It is so warm. 
 Maggie and her new lego's.  She loves them and plays with them a lot.  They are a little more advanced for her, but most of the time she can do most of it herself.
 Daddy in his new flannel from Granny and Grandpa.  So so warm.
 Sarah's new ear warmer from cousin Caroline.  :)
Sarah is a bookend on this post.  lol  I was showing Maggie that I was cropping her out because she had her eyes half closed and looked kind of drunk.  I didn't use that exact wording, but that is what I was thinking.  :D

December 2014

 Daddy taking a break from playing guitar and singing for us.   ; )
 Dancing to Daddy tunes.
 Daphne is getting to be a big dog.  : )
 Riding my doggie.  Poor Daphne, Dave was trying to keep Sarah from getting in the way of picture taking and Daphne was overwhelmed while Maggie tries to ride her.  Heh.
 Taking a picture with her Mr. Potato Head.
Aw.  Shelby (also known as Belby by Sarah) dog with the girls.  So cute.

Guess I could do an update here.  Maggie is growing and learning how to share toys with Sarah even when she is done playing with what Sarah picks up.  She has had a few growth spurts lately and just a wonderful, thoughtful young lady.  Maggie is a very good Mama's helper and runs to get her sister when she wakes from a nap.  Sarah is getting a few teeth all at once at the moment, about 5 or 6.  She started walking early last month, in her 15th month.  She will repeat anything you say.  She has been saying short phrases since 10 months old, like "Thank you" and "there you are."  The other day I said excellent to her and she repeated it right back.  Pretty cool after her brother and sister thought about words you said a few times and then tried them.  Nope, Sarah just repeats things right back.  I'm always amazed at how fast kids pick up things at this age.  Sarah is no different.  I ask her to find things for me and she will and if I say something about where to find like a baby doll she's looking for, well, you better go do it now, heh.  We were looking for her baby doll the other day, could not find it anywhere.  I said maybe its downstairs somewhere.  Well, she was like "downstairs."  And then she started saying "come on" and patting her leg desperately trying to get me to go look downstairs with her.  So stinking smart and cute.  She is definitely the crazy one too.  Just will fly at you so you can catch her and say "gotcha."  We'll have to watch out for this spunky one.  She loves to laugh.
