Play date Preview
Ben is excited about growing a garden this year and needed some help putting together some boxes. So he invited a couple of guys over and told thier families that he would borrow them for the day and that evening we would have everyone over and he would grill for them. Here are some pictures of the finished product.



So I was getting the girls ready for theier play date.

I had a rough day with the girls because they were so very sick. I about called it all off. But since I am pretty sure that the girls got thier sickness from the two boys who were coming over in the end I figured it would be ok for them to be here since they had already had it.
Ben and they men did a great job building the boxes and it took them most of the day but we had a great time last night with all the crew. The two boys are "boys" and like to play in the mud and wrestle. They were crazy! I am so glad I do not have two boys. They are great little boys and mind...just are boys! The other family has a little girl that is going through a "drama queen" stage. It was quite funny to me, but I am pretty sure her mom had about had enough!
Poor little Emily got her first "owie" She was getting excited with the boys and fell over from her sitting position right onto the tile floor (she was on the carpet and thought she was far enough away from the tile)
So she has a little knot and bruise on her head from the fall. But she took it like a trooper. I just held her for a few minutes and she was fine! Kids are so resileint.

Sitting up
The girls are now able to sit up for extended periods of time. These little girls are amazing! It is so exciting to see them grow and develop little by little!
Poor little girls have been sick since we got back home from Mom and Dad's.
We finally broke down and took them to the doctor this past Friday. They kept getting worse. The doctor told us that he thinks that they got a minor cold, and then when thier immune system was down, they got a bad one. They have had so much junk in thier little noses it is sad to hear them even breathe. They cough all the time and wake up during the night quite a bit becasue they cannot breathe. It has been a rough two weeks for them.
They have also found decided that they dont like to eat pureed food anymore, they want to feed themselves! So we have been trying to come up with ways to get them to eat. They are to the stage where they make a huge mess when eating. We gave them avacado the other day and just let them grab the slices and eat them. It was a fun time for them. They were all green when they got done! I will have to have Ben download the video he took from his phone to get it on here.

Visiting Grandma and Grandpa
We are not going to be able to visit with all of the family due to my boss taking off time the week that everyone was getting together, so we decided that we would take a week off a few weeks prior and go visit my Mom and Dad.
We had a good time. Mom was busy getting Grandma moved into a different facility so that took up much of her time, but we had Dad at home most of the time so he had fun with the girls.
I feel bad that Mom did not get to spend very much time with the girls, but what time she did get was good.
The girls were good the whole time. I am so blessed to have good girls!
Ana has started doing a squinty smily thing that is hilarious and I wish that I could have caught her doing it, but I was not ever quick enough! Both girls had a great time flirting with Grandpa!
I have attached some pictures of the trip.

The girls on the last day of the Trip in our Hotel room in Ontario. They are a little bit worn out!

St. Patricks Day spent in Jerome and surrounding areas to scope out family reunion sights!

Silly Stomach Sleeper
Emily was being a little stinker the other day about taking her nap even though she was super tired, she kept rolling around in her bed. Once it finally got quiet I went back in to see how she ended up. I then had to get a video of it since her face was smashed into the bed and she was caught up in her blanket!
Crazy silly girl!
