Oreo Smiles!

 As we wait patiently for spring weather we  passed some time today enjoying oreo cookies!  When Stella was caught eating some of Claire's broken cookie she said they were 'sharing'.

 

 

Sleepy Girl!

Often times on the weekend Stella likes to stay up with mommy during nap time, which she did today.  Tonight at story time she was extra tired though and couldn't make it to our routine of rocking, prayers, and songs.

We have a busy week ahead but are looking forward to spring break and a visit with the Hooley's over Easter weekend!

Basketball States

This weekend we traveled to Glens Falls with a BMC crew for Basketball States.  Going to the tournament has become a tradition for Randy over the past few years and this time we decided to make it a family trip.  We weren't good about taking pics but here are a few of Claire fooling around in the hotel room.  She thought being under the end table was just hilarious!

Saturday morning we took the girls to the swimming pool.  It was eventful so it's probably best that we forgot to bring the camera...           We thought Claire would enjoy the pool but never dreamed how fearless she would be around the water.  She loved splashing around and didn't mind being on her tummy or going under.

Tonight as we were getting settled into bed we asked Stella what her favorite part of the trip was and she said 'playing with Gigi' - no surprises there! 

 

Dull Days of Winter

As winter starts to pass and we see signs of spring we'll likely start to have more news to share but things have been mostly routine for us lately.  Claire continues to learn more words and while she still isn't talking a great deal she definitely comprehends the things we say to her.  Stella shows us she's a big girl more and more every day.  We are looking forward to some fun this coming weekend as we head to Glens Falls for the NYS high school basketball championships with lots of our BMC friends.  Our teams won't be playing but this trip has become sort of a tradition for daddy and this year we decided to all make the trip.  We'll try to capture some of the fun for our next post.
