One lucky Mama of Two!

The pre-(we really need a) nap photo attempt...

The post-(still waking up) nap photo attempt...

Trying to capture a photo or write in words for how blessed I feel to be the lucky Mama to Madelaine and Eleanor...impossible. Thanks girls! Love you bunches!

Also hoping all the wonderful mothers I have been blessed to have in my life had a special day as well.

Happy 16-months to ME!

Presenting Ballerina Madelaine...
and Ballerina Eleanor.

Some new found toys which we are enjoying include trying to jump on our mini bouncy castle (not even completely inflated yet)...

and bouncing on our toy ponys. We think jumping is in our near future!

We also are working on learning signs for zoo animals and right now know zebra, gorilla and seal. We for the most part always use more, please, and thank-you when requesting things (some prompting needed at times) and are working on sharing (haha!).

High-Fives!

Love, ME

Adventures in Toyland!

This past weekend took us on a day trip to LARK Toys in Kellogg, MN, where we had great fun (for the most part) and we highly recommend it to others (http://www.larktoys.com/).

Eleanor had fun whipping up some creations in the kitchen
but decided the apple was the healthiest choice.
Madelaine, as you can imagine, gravitated to the babies and found a favorite to hold.

One of the main attractions is the hand-carved carousel and we can say you have a 50/50 chance of liking it. Madelaine enjoyed...

Eleanor did not.

At least we all ended on a happy note!

Love, ME
