They Have My Heart

I love her.  I just do.  Can't help it.

And her.

And those two boys who walked to the bus stop all on their own this morning cuz their little sisters were still sleeping.  (It's only a block away.  I'm not that negligent!)  And I wish I had my camera as I watched them disappear behind the trees across the street because I loved the big bro's arm around the little bro's shoulders.  The look...."I totally got this, Mom."  Maybe no photo.  But I got the picture on my heart.

Can You Believe These?!

My friend works at Toys R Us and showed me these dolls one day while I was shopping for Thomas's birthday party.  I didn't want to spend any more that day, so I left them.  I went back a couple weeks ago to buy them, but they'd gone on clearance and sold out.  I was determined to get them for the girls.  I mean, "Gabriela"....OK, but seriously, who has ever seen an "Elena" doll before?  I ordered them online and we are now the proud owners of two dolls to go with our two real-life dolls! :)


Thanks, Cheryl!

My Girls

I really have been terrible about blogging lately.  I just finally downloaded one of my cameras today.  The other, I still haven't.  There are photos on them from a couple months back.  Think this is one of them.  I love it, so thought I'd share.

We had one of those days today.  You know, where surviving is all you can do.  We haven't had a very good start to winter break so far.  Grandparents come in tomorrow.  That will either make things much better or much worse.  We'll see....
