a new thing

We hit a new milestone. This time with Abigail...
I will let you figure it out by reading a conversation I had with Abigail:

A: What happened to her arm?
Me: She broke it.
A: Why?
Me: She fell off her chair.
A:Why?
Me:She was reaching too high.
A:Why?
Me: She wanted her book.
A:Why?
Me: She was to short to get it.
A:Why?
Me: That's just the way God made her.
A:Why did she want the book?
Me: She wanted to read it.
A:Why?
Me: Because she works at the library.
A: Why?....

old friends

Last week we went to Virgina to visit the Platt's! It had been over a year since we have seen our best friends. Between our families there had been several moves, new babies and new jobs. It was awesome being together as families, having the big girls play together like old times and the little babies look at each other.

Sweet Haven Doll...

Abigail really liked playing in Addysen's big girl bed. They would play together in it and talk to each other.
They had great practice on learning how to take turns and share...

Haven and Rachel

We had a full car of kids. We loved the automatic door openers on the van...
We were busy this past week with several fun activities out. One included going to the children's museum. Addysen got to show Abigail her favorites places to play...
Abigail was really into this...
So was Haven...

Running in circles and lots of giggles.

Sweet friends

Jake left a few days before the girls and I. Although it was a long day of travel solo with the 2 girls, it went great. Both girls fell asleep on the plane and we had no trouble catching our flights or going through security. It was so great to see our friends. In a perfect world we would live down the street from each other, but we will make the most of the time we get to be together.
