Wrap Up Wednesday

Started off the week without much snow.  It rained for nearly two days straight and before we knew it, we had puddles to play in vs. snow banks.

 

 

And who in their right mind can enjoy a good puddle stomp without a friend?

 

 

Also in this weeks news, little sister nearly gave me a heart attack when she slammed her head on the kitchen floor resulting in the biggest goose egg bump I'd ever seen; looked like she was growing a horn.  Luckily we have a couple nurses within walking distance (sorry again Holly for busting in before 8am on a Saturday). 

 

 

Turns out she's just fine.  Obviously.  Although I still can't believe she walked away stretch mark free.  It's amazing how fast they bounce back.  And to prove just this, here are the girls "racing wike daddy".  Same day.

 

 

In addition to racing themselves, they've really taken to monster truck racing.  Surprise, surprise we happen to own a few.

 

 

The current time change has fallen in my favor.  Naptime is reborn!!  Although it never lasts long.

 

Violet finally had her 18 month check up (a couple months late due to the fact that we were all sick FOREVER).  She passed.  We get to keep her.  She's 10% in weight, 42% in height and up to date on vaccines ... no more shots till she's 4 years old!  Whoop!

 

Evenings are still full of chase time with Daddy.

 

Who's getting less and less tolerant of the in-home paparazzi.

 

 

The rain subsided earlier in the week and out came the sun!

 

 

And the wind.

 

 

And the mess.

 

 

And the filthy, grass sprinkled plastic meals.

 

 

And the crazy.

 

 

And one last picture from tonight of Violet giving her bestie & side kick Jack-Jack some lovin'.  She's missed him oh so much.

 

 

That's a wrap!



Mobile Monday

Our past week in instagrams ... organizing by color, shopping at Target, falling asleep on Daddy's legs while he studies, channeling Johnny Depp, new business cards, cutting up Ritz crackers (a not so fun clean up) and sister in her big girl bed.

 

AND ... showers, fun photo quote, arrival of March mustaches, new tea cup, Vi setting her table in the nude with one princess shoe on, collage of a colossal meltdown over clothes (having to wear them), walk in the snow, favorite books, biggest bottle of wine ever, Vi being silly and naps with Juliet. 

 

AND ... switching up seats in the buggy, Vi being silly and a look at her gnarly bump, puddle jumping (no more snow), popcorn and movies, front and back of new business cards that arrived and Juliet's fat lip ... courtesy of Violet.

 

Phew ... that's all.

Wrap Up Wednesday

Wrapping up another week and looking through these, there seems to be one reoccurring theme.  Violet does not like to keep her clothes on (and I don't just mean in the tub).  

Love these crazy faces ...

 

In addition to going bare ... Violet has been constantly chatting it up with an imaginary Papa on the phone.  And coloring all over herself.

 

Meanwhile her hair just keeps growing ...

 

She still loves taking care of "bebe" ...

 

... and Daddy.  Love this guy, haha.  He's such a good sport.

 

There's been some after school snoozing ...

 

And melting snow ...

A couple of my personal tub favorites from this week ...

 

As usual there's been a little fighting, but mostly goofing around with sister ...
 

 

And lots of cuddling with Mama ... ohhhh that smile.

 

And just being plain beautiful ...

 

Ahhh and can't forget my pathetic attempts of getting sisterly photos this week.

 

Haha classic ... and that's a wrap!

Mobile Monday

Our past week in instagrams ... snow snow and more snow, taking over Mama's desk, power outages, sassy over breakfast, Daddy sleeping in, new fun case for business photo disk, popsicles with Fiona the fish, school crafts, sweet sister AND a very important "note to self" that I need to keep in my wallet.
