Around here lately


We have been playing with Band-Aids
Lots of laundry (this is Lydia pretending to wash Molly's clothes)


And then she organized the shoes

And vacuumed the living room...thank you Lydia!

We hiked Kennesaw Mountain (Daddy carried Lydia, Mommy carried Molly)


Ballet (at home and Mommy and Me classes)

Hosting so many guests for lunch!

And of course, there is always dancing with the Prince (in this case, Poppy)

Girls just wanna have fun...

"Daddy, do you know who Cyndi Lauper is?"

Seriously, that how Lydia started a conversation on a walk this past week. You see, a few days before I was in the getting ready and Lydia was playing with her hairbows (organizing, etc....a favorite past time). I looked down and she had used about 10 of them for little bracelets. "Look Mommy!". "Lydia," I said, "you look Cyndi Lauper."

Well, then I had to explain who this mega-bracelet wearing, poofy hair icon from the eighties is. Some things are better explained with a song. We went downstairs for some hands-on education: I pulled up "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" on my itunes.

Since then, Cyndi has been big talk around here. I told Brian he can teach the girls theology, but I'll teach them the 80s. 

I Feel Like Someone is Sitting on My Head. And They Might Be.

How is having a head cold like sleeping next to a child? I'm not overly prone to sickness nor do I often co-sleep with my three beaut...
