A little bit of sewing.

I've been doing a little bit of sewing today. I made the girls each a dress. They love them. Now I need to make some more for Syd, so that we don't have a fight everyday about getting dressed.
Syd's dress:

Pene's Dress:

The girls together:


Also we have been thinking for awhile about making our own reusable shopping bags (we have a ton of those stupid plastic bags). The other day at Walmart some of the cashiers were talking about how they are going to be doing away with the plastic bags at Walmart (April or August i can't remember). So now we are trying out some patterns for bags to find the one that we like. So far the 2 that I have tried I think are alittle too big. But here they are anyway.



Enjoy!

It's a.......

Girl!
That's right baby girl #4 will be here this summer.
Don't ask about a name, we have no idea yet.
I don't think that she liked having her picture taken,
she kept putting her hands and arms over her face.
Here are some pictures:
This we call "The Thinker"

Here is another with her arm and profile.

What a nice day!

Well the weather has been pretty nice the last few days, nice change from freezing and below.
Today the girls and I decided since it was nice to get out of the house and walk to the Dollar Tree (the girls favorite place to go).
We found a cute little fish tank that has fish that grow, so we thought we would try it out. We will be taking pictures of it to post so that everyone can see them grow. They have only grown alittle bit. Here is a picture from after we just put the water in.

We also got some more of those cute little monkeys.
Here is Syd's


Here's Pene's



Here is a cute picture of the girls


Then we took the girls bike riding to the mailbox and around on some of the sidewalks. They had alot of fun. Pene is a speed demon if you give her the chance.

Snow....finally!

We got some snow this morning. Finally after them telling us for weeks that we would get some.
Here's Kermit

Pene enjoying the snow.


Sydney enjoying the snow. Making a snow angel. Syd is very sad that it is melting.


One sad thing about the snow is it would have been Maggie's first real snow. Bummer.

We are also the new proud owners of this

Happy 5th Birthday Sydney!

It's hard to believe that we are the parents of a 5 year old. Where did the time go!
She went from this:

To this:

It's crazy. Later today we will be a having a pink cake with pink icing. Yumm.
Happy Birthday babe!

Baby #4's first picture

Well we went to the Dr for the first time yesterday. Everything seems fine. The Dr is nice, hopefully he will be a good match for us. There have been alot of days that could be the due date for this baby, so i'm going to say the estimated due date is July 1st, so we probably will be having this baby in early july. But we will see. We got to see the baby yesterday, it is a cutie. He/she was doing a cute thing with it's hand, kind of what you do when you are feeling a fabric to see if it is soft. It was cute.
Here are the pictures 0f the baby

This picture is of the baby's head with it's hand near it's face
