News on the Girls

Bella starts school on Wednesday and we have meet the teacher on Monday morning, so I should have some interesting pictures to post this week. I will also try and remember to bring my camera to her new dance class on Monday night and snap a few pictures through the door.
We have been attending church since March where Bella will start preschool. She finally decided she is ready for Sunday School and today was her second Sunday to go. She loves it. Kenna can start as early as next fall.

Bella after Aunt Laura took her to the salon to have her nails and toes painted. She chose electric blue.



This is a really cute video of Kenna playing with her babies. She is imitating a movie she likes to watch with baby Elmo and his daddy. Elmo's daddy 'bumps' baby Elmo on his knee and then kisses him. Unless you have seen the show, you probably can't tell what she is doing, but it's cute anyway!

My Sister is Bella

Here is a cute picture and short video I took this past weekend. Kenna is very proud of herself for being up at the bar with her daddy! The video is of Kenna saying 'Bella'. It is so cute how she says her sister's name!

Best of Both Worlds

If you are not a grandparent, or think a singing 4 year old and a jumping 1 year old is the cutest thing you have ever seen, then you might not enjoy this 2 and 1/2 minute video.

And yes, I have given up. This is what our living room looks like ALL the time.

We Have A Little Catching Up To Do

So, about 2 and 1/2 weeks ago the oldest little angel spilled water all over my laptop. This explains the huge gap of time between this one and the last update. Since then there has been lots going on around here. The computer is back and we are up and running again. Here is a scattered look at the last few weeks around here.




As you can see, Kenna is growing up. She turned the 20 month mark in August, and is full of opinion. She is wearing Bella's high heel shoes and skirt in this picture. She looks proud, doesn't she? When you ask her how she slept she says "good". She answers questions with the cutest "ya" you've ever heard. Now she hollers at Bella from across the house by calling her name. Last night when she let Winnie out after she closed the back door she said "pottey" through the door to her. We remember Bella at this age, and there was no slowing down on the words. Once she started talking, she never stopped.

And here is Miss Bella (Princess Belle) at her 4th birthday party. We had 5 little girls from the neighborhood and dance class. The party went really well, and all the little girls were so sweet. The only hitch was that Kenna ran 103 fevers from Friday to Sunday, so we had to move the party to Aunt Laura's house. Thank goodness for Aunt Laura. I was afraid for anyone to come to our house and catch whatever virus Kenna had.




Bella, Allison, & Grace.



Craft time. They made tiaras.

We took all the little girls pictures in front of Belle. This is our new neighbor Madie with Bella. Bella had already changed from her Belle costume by the end of the party.


Marcie - Bella said she sure wished Caroline and Katelynn could have been there. We missed them.
