Merry Christmas!

Supper! Turkey, excellent stuffing, mashed 'taters, asparagus, cranberry sauce, salad, and sparkling grape juice.

I wanted to include a picture of the girls in their new outfits, sewn by Granma Ellen, but Anna woke up sick this morning. We wonder if it's from too much Christmas candy & too many late nights (her bedtime's shifted to around 11 lately - we're working to get it back).

Happy Birthday, Mary!

I don't know why the photos lined up the way they did, but here you go. :) When Mary sees something she likes to eat she says, "Mmmmmm!" There was a lot of "mmmming" today.

Picture & Quote of the Day (or week, if we're busy)

On the way home from church, Anna was singing, "Go tell it on the mountain, I'm the one who's in trouble!" (At least, that's what it sounded like. )

At the Maymont Nature Center & Children's Farm in Richmond, Sep 11, 2010.

A tale of two Spaghettis

The top one is Mary, Sep 7, 2010. The bottom one is Anna, Sep 8, 2008. I don't know what it is about us & September & spaghetti.

Just me & the girls, taking a break on the porch on an over-100 degree day. Taken with my cell phone.

Happy Girls

Not only has Anna not worn diapers since the week of the 19th ('cept pull-ups to bed & church), but she hasn't had an accident for a few days now. Yay for her!! Plus, her teacher said she was a very good girl in Sunday School today. (She actually used the word "perfect", but we don't want to get big heads.)

Mary is *almost* crawling. She's very good at dragging herself around. Hard on the clothes; fun for the baby.
