Have a great day!

Come see Jeremiah's Room

Wow! Its been such a long time since we updated, sorry about that. Things have been busy. I promise to try harder to update more often. For right now, Kathryn and Kimberly would like to show you around Baby Jeremiah's Room (or as they like to call him Baba):

"Welcome...Please come in!"

"This is where Baba will sleep"

"This is where Mommy and Daddy will change Baba's dirty diapers"

"This is Baba's music box and also where we keep his clothes"

"Baba will ride in here when we go bye bye in the van"

"This is where we will rock Baba"

And this is what Kimberly was doing while Kathryn was busy showing you around the room.

Here are just some more shots of his room:

Our last addition to Jeremiah's room is going to be a painting that Aunt Briana is painting. Here is a preview...its not quite done, but should look great in the room.

Our New Room!

In an effort to make room for Jeremiah, Mommy and Daddy turned our playroom into our new bedroom. We wanted to share some pictures with you. We LOVE it!!! Our new rug is the coolest, we love to hop on the butterflies and pretend like we're counting them. Then we stand on top of them and spin in circles. We also love our new reading corner. Its so nice and cozy with all of our favorite books right there. We feel so grown up having our own little light that we can push on and off. We sure are getting to be big girls!

Thanks Mommy and Daddy for our new room! :)

1 week from today.....

We will be headed to Florida in anticipation of boarding our cruiseship on Sunday. We're dressed and ready to go...who wants to go with us?

BIG news and lots of pictures!

Hey Everyone!! Sorry for the delay in updates, we've been busy around here! I just realized that we never made an official announcement on here, so here it is....

Kathryn and Kimberly are going to be BIG Sisters!! :)

Yup, its true! Kathryn and Kimberly are going to be big sisters! The expected due date is 11/11/08...just 5 days after the girls turn 2. We don't know if its a boy or girl yet, but expect to find out sometime in early July. We are alll very excited about the addition. We're not sure the girls really understand whats going to happen, but if you ask them where Mommy's Baby is they will rub my belly and give the baby kisses. This pregnancy has been kinda rough so far, but hopefully things are starting to turn around. It seems like the morning sickness has gone away, and as long as Mommy takes it easy and doesn't over do it (yeah right...with 2 toddlers in the house?!) then things are ok.

The girls got some practice at being big sisters a few weeks ago when Briana and Scott came down to visit with Elijah and Abigail. (Mommy and Daddy even got to take a 2 night trip all by themselves!!). The first set of pictures is from their visit:

Kimberly loved holding Abigail

Kathryn wasn't so sure about it at first

But Mommy...why can't Elijah sleep in my bed with me?

"We promise we didn't do anything we weren't supposed too."

"Yup, you're growing, but you're still not as tall as me!"

How do you entertain 3 toddlers? Why you give them bowls
of water and measuring cups and spoons.

Abigail says "Kimberly please share some with me, it looks so much tastier then my bottle!"

Kathryn says "Who needs a spoon, thats why I have hands!"

Snack time with a video

Here Abigail let me show you how to bounce in that thing.

"Come on in Elijah and join me for some tea!"

Even Abigail could join in on playing outside in the swings

Lets ride the horse!

Come on Scott...can't you hold all 4 kids at once?

Kathryn and Kimberly really enjoyed their playmates and can't wait until we can all play together again! Mommy and Daddy say THANK YOU VERY MUCH for our weekend away, we had a great time!!!

Now, here are some random pictures of the girls, I hope you enjoy!

Helping Mommy make Brownies

Trying to figure out how to use Daddy's tools

Kimberly decided she wanted to help pay bills

Helping Daddy wash the van

Of course the driveway needed washed too

And then we had to rinse off by playing in the sprinkler

We hope you enjoyed all the pictures!! Have a great day! :)

Botanical Gardens

Here are some pictures from our trip to the Riverbanks Botanical Gardens. The girls had a GREAT time walking around and smelling all the flowers. They are just too cute!

We had to stop and sit on every bench we passed. (Kathryn has on the yellow sunglasses, Kimberly the pink...although the sunglasses didn't last the whole trip)

"Hey Sister...let's Dance"

"Mommy I don't want to stand beside sister for you to take a picture, I want to run around!"

"Hey COME BACK! Mommy wants to take a picture!"

Thankfully no one tried to go IN the fountain

"Come on sister, lets go this way!"
"But, I wanna go THIS way!"

"Whew, we need a break!"
"No, we don't, come on lets go!"

We like rocking chairs

Yay! Daddy came to meet us after he got off work. We had fun walking with Daddy!

"Us sisters always stick together!"

"Hey, Mommy and Daddy are you coming?!"

Kathryn stops to smell the flowers

And then Kimberly stops to smell the flowers

"Hey sis, these smell better, come smell these!"
