Grandparents

The girls have had a busy week! First, Nana came to visit last Monday and stayed until Thursday. Then Grandma and Papa came and spent Friday through today. The girls are so spoiled now! They had a blast with their grandparents. They laughed so hard and have been in great moods! The fun thing they are doing now is holding hands every where we go. We went to see the ducks on Saturday and they couldn't walk very far without holding each others hands. It is so cute to see the sister bond they are developing!

What personalities

The girls are really starting to show their individuality. Their personalities are so different. They both truly love each other and always make sure they know where the other one is. It's so funny to watch they see each other and say "hi sister". Their faces just light up!

What have we been up to?

We have been really busy this week, but when I try to write what we've done I can't think of anything! Our big news is that the girls will be moving up to an older class on Monday. It's a big deal around our house. They have been transitioning for about a week now and it's been hard. They are very cranky because they are trying to keep up with the big kids.

Today was very fun for us. We met our twin friends at Chuck E Cheese to play. This is only the third time the girls have been to one but they are now old enough to understand. We bought them tokens to play games and ride the rides. Gracie loved the rides. She wanted to ride all of them over and over. Lizzie was not sure of the rides and hated them. She didn't really want sister to ride them either. Lizzie was happy just carrying around the cup with the tokens/tickets. She tucked it under her arm and walked all over with it. Every time she bent over, she would drop everything out and then have to pick it up. It was very comical.

Change of Plans

Well, our craft fair fell through. We had problems getting confirmation on our booth. Anyway, our weekend is nothing like we planned. Wes was suppose to go out of town this weekend for work and that got changed too. So instead, we are getting family pictures taken as a fund raiser for my MPOM group. I'm looking forward to it.

We may also play with our friend the Coddingtons and visit the Nash Farm in Grapevine. I've always wanted to go there especially after I drove by it at least once a week the summer the girls were in the NICU.

With how are lives change so quickly, who knows what we will be doing!

Craft Show Preview

I have been working and going crazy getting ready for the craft show this weekend at Keller High School. Karla at Soap Addict and I will be sharing a booth! I'm excited and nervous at the same time! I can't believe it's almost here.

Here is a preview of some of the items I'll be selling.

Spring Time

The girls are starting to do all kinds of silly and amazing things for us. They understand almost everything and have memories like elephants. Last night, we had a great family night. The weather was great, so we took the girls outside after dinner to play. The played on their slide and picked the million dandelions in our yard. The girls love to watch the petals blow in the wind. Gracie has it figured out how to blow on it to get them to move. Lizzie on the other hand is funny. She holds it out really far and then blows.

Lizzie is my flower girl. She has been really excited by our crab apple tree. It's in full bloom right now (which I hate because that means tons of stinky crab apples on the ground that we have to pick up). She loves to look at it and pick the blooms off for herself and Gracie. Gracie usually could care less. Last night, she wanted to take in her yellow dandelion to show her daddy it was so cute. She picked it and said Dada and then went to the door.

Visitors

Because this week is Spring Break for my sister and her kids, they decided to spend the weekend with us. Grandma and Papa came earlier because she wanted "alone time" with the girls. The girls love their aunt, uncle and cousins. Sydney and Sam keep them busy and entertained. We had a really busy weekend.

On Saturday, we went to the Fort Worth Stockyards. The kids did the maze, bought cowboy hats, watched the cattle and went to a petting zoo. It was fun! For dinner , we had really yummy greek food.

Today, we just hung out. Gracie and Sammy weren't feeling good so we order lunch in. Everyone left early this afternoon so I took a nap.
