Below: pictures from our time at the cottage up north and various other fun times.
Here's how I know my girls have truly passed into the toddler stage. Clothes. Insisting on ridiculous ones. Yes, those years have started, especially for a certain Miss Freya Violet. And then with our always-monkey-see-monkey-do situation, well, I'm working on my restraint.
Rainy day
Freya tries it...
No, not for me
Signe had much fun with Nana and this box
Cool present from Nana
Kurt's masterpiece
Invariable end
The Night it Sounded Like a Good Idea to Pour Our Milk Into Our Plate and Dip Bread In It
I can't remember who started it, but yes, monkey see once agian
Swings with Papa and cousin Alanah at the cottage
Freya thought the dog Titan was really interesting but also scary
And cousins Erica and Imani have joined the fun
Scrabble with aunt Diane and aunt Debbie. They need to start this young to have any hope of beating them one day.
Sleepy Alanah and Imani
Now a bunch of pictures of the girls getting comfortable with the water. This was almost bedtime, but we decided to let them play because they were liking it so much. Thus, they start out in regular diapers and eventually go full monty because their diapers have puffed up to their body weight.
Alanah helps with some heavy buckets
Freya insisting on drinking the not-for-drinking lake water
A fish like mama
Oh that hair
The big tree in our backyard got cut down because it was in the power lines. Thus lots of fun trucks to watch in the backyard.
And now they are re-doing the sidewalks out front, I mean, creating a super-fun pit for the girls to play in
Fences are fun
Daddy horsey rides are too
Yup, looks like a perfect day for our winter hats
They eat whole peaches in like 3 minutes. Daddy's girls certainly.
Signe was throwing grass...
Everywhere
Daddy horsey ride part deux: Danger Ride. Two people on one back, no diapers under their swimsuits. It all turned out fine :-)
