May little things.

These girls wake up early early, but still need to stay in their room until 7—so sometimes they get creative--making a fort with what they had on hand apparently.

I feel you, Georgia.  Pushups are no fun.

Kittens at Cody’s house.  This is when Elna decided she for sure wanted a kitten for her birthday.  Spoiler alert: she didn’t get one.

First time with cotton candy—yum!

Family bike ride.

Eating so much sand down at the river.

Train ride downtown.

A long night with Gigi // At least she’s cute.

Mother’s Day flowers in my kitchen window sill.

One of our babysitters brought these Carebears over for the girls.  They were a hit—even at breakfast!

Brian fell asleep helping Hattie fall asleep.  Harriet is our best cuddler (besides Brian)

When it’s cold outside, we’ve got the month of May.  Swimsuits and life jackets inside on a gray day.  I guess you could say we are summer people. (hattie’s face!)

Sunshine on a cloudy day.

Anticipation!

She went through the best stage where she wanted to wear panties over her diapers.

Georgia loves going on this bike with Elna!  They even go pretty fast down the driveway—she loves it, obviously!

Brian helped the girls make these volcanos!

Elna made our bed!

A birthday party for William Brown—such a cute, fun party!

Rides at the mall.

While at the mall, I ran into Sephora for something and Brian took this picture of the girls who were practicing their makeup skills.

Raspberry picking in our backyard.

Baby camera screenshot from an early morning—sometimes the girls go in and entertain Georgia so we can stay in bed for a couple more minutes.

She’s a bit braver than we’d like her to be.

“Mom, come find us!”

Gigi’s first ponytail!

Annie made and sent us this amazing quiet book!  The girls love it!

Sometimes the girls don’t get to bed right away and do funny things with their bed and then get so tired, they just fall asleep in the middle of it all.

They were completely zonked out with the mattress halfway off the bed and their light still on.

Another night falling asleep in strange ways.

I love when they read together.
