My sister Annie made this sweet montage from our Fish Lake trip this summer

Seattle

We had another fun, relaxing weekend in Seattle. We stayed with Scott and Tristan, and got to spend some good time with Ben, Katie and Baby Eva. Hopefully Katie will send me some of the pictures from their house before Eva turns one so I can put them on here (hint hint). We did a lot of sitting around, and took one good walk to the park. It was a relief when the girls did great in the car and slept well both nights. We just never know when we're away. Oh and a little update on the last post. Last Friday I worked (for three whole hours) so I made a big deal about it and kept talking about how hard I worked. In the car on the way to Seattle the girls started talking about Ryan working and fixing cars again. They were going on and on...so we asked them what I do. Their response was "bleh, bleh" the noise they make when they are copying me throwing up.

Eliza's senior photo pose

They loved hanging on the monkey bars, and we thought it was pretty cool too.

Tristan's cute 26 week belly, I got to feel the little man moving around in there.

Helping feed baby Eva, gave us a little taste of the little helpers we are going to have here when our little baby arrives. They LOVE baby Eva.

Funny

The other day the girls were pretending to be Ryan and I. Eliza was Ryan and Adie was me. So they were saying things like "I'm dadda, I go to work" "you dadda, workin' hard fixin' cars". I finally asked them what mamma does. After a pause one of them said "mamma pee pee on the potty!" and so I got to sit there and listen to them talk about how hard Ryan works and how I pee on the potty. Sad that that's all they could come up with for me.

The picture obviously doesn't have to do anything with the little story - this is what they are doing a lot of lately. Chasing each other around "get me, get me" and tackling each other.

Bubbles on the deck

Ryan recently finished this deck off of the sun room. He's probably not going to like that I put pictures on before he got the siding back up on the house (he put the sliding glass door in too), but I thought these were cute. The girls have been asking for bubbles ever since the family reunion in K Falls so I finally picked some up for them. We've been loving the deck, and the new lawn Ryan planted. We tried sleeping with the girls out here in the tent last weekend - Adie did well and slept all night. Eliza got a little ticked when it was time to turn off the flashlights and never snapped out of it so she slept in her crib.

Notice Delilah lounging in the background in this one. She waits for the girls to go over and throw her the plums that fall off the tree.

Birthday Party

Adie and Eliza's little buddy Elliott turned 2 this week. His mom and I met at a mom's group soon after they were born and we've been running together since then. Girls were pretty shy and quiet during the party. Then, all the kids left and it was just us, Sarah (daughter of the other gal we run with) and Elliott and they perked up and had fun with those two.

couple random pictures

Adie ready to go run errands for the day. They can both be particular about what they wear these days - this day Adie had to have socks on her hand and her babies hat on her head.

Maybe this isn't super funny...them copying me being sick. They thought they were being so funny. I actually felt relatively good today - I ate a bit of chicken and carrots for dinner! That is the first time I've been able to eat what I made for dinner in about 10 weeks. I'm closing in on my second trimester so hopefully today was more than a fluke. At my last appointment the Doctor gave us a March 14 due date.

Cuter than cute
