Me and my bestie - so thankful for Candice!  She is a joy, and a godsend after many years of feeling disconnected and lonely in friendships. (BTW - Anna Claire took this picture - haha! My little photographer!)

Enjoying reconnecting with our good friend, Kim lately.  She's always been a blessing to us.

This cracks me up. Instructions: "Color mom and give her eye and hair color like your mother's."

Anna claire got me just perfect-blue eyes with brown hair.....how does dad have black hair? Hahaha! At least she knew he had green eyes!!

Dad came over this weekend to assemble our new playground!  What a blessing from the Lord!  We've wanted one for a while, but they are soooo expensive!  Two different folks gave Dad a wooden playset, and he repaired them and then constructed a bridge so they could be linked together.  The girls are so excited!

 Isn't it great!

My big girls absolutely love cheese! They're like little rats! :-) They would eat it all day if they would wear allowed to. As it is we go through at least two big 16 ounce hunks of cheese a week. :-) Ha ha

Eliza has learned to open doors and drawers and LOVES to do it and plunder!!! She's in such a better mood this week which is a huge relief for this mama!!

Also, she FINALLY got in her bottom left tooth next to her front teeth! About time!!!

Juliana has the funniest personality! I am so enjoying getting to know her as she grows into an individual. :-) She has a good sense of humor already and loves to tease! She says funny little things like, "whoa, dude!" Ha ha! I don't know where she picked that up!

Most of the time she's very good at sharing, though she has her moments like all toddlers. She loves to tell Eliza no! I think it makes her feel like a big sister, since Anna Claire can be so bossy towards her. :-)

Getting Juliana's mmr vaccine today in light of the new outbreak in California. Scares me to death, but I think she's old enough to proceed without too much concern about regression. I wish I just trusted the drug companies and didn't worry about this stuff....she's just so dear and precious and smart and it would kill me if she stopped talking and withdrew emotionally.....I hope one day they find out the true cause of autism so we could stop worrying about everything from vaccines to BPA to pesticides to processed food and gluten....

Love how my babies are learning to play together!
