A beautiful, windy day at the park!

It was so nice today that we played a long time at the park. Haha, yes, I do see the caution tape on the jungle gym next to Hailey but it wasn't on the whole thing.. just on that ladder. Not sure why. Didn't see anything broken. Maybe someone fell or something.



Taylor can do the big swings but still has to have a ride in the baby swing, goofy.


On the balance beam



Watching the ducks at the pond by the park

Throwing sticks in the water

Posing :)

Bathtime

My kids will love me for this picture some day! I couldn't help myself. They were swimming in the tub, and their butts were just too cute, lol.

Family Wknd & Tyler's Bday

We went to our nephew Tyler's 1st Birthday party on Friday which was fun. He did some pretty good damage to his cake :)



Hailey & Me at the party

Pooped little girls at the end of the day

Sunday morning


Sunday afternoon playing in the sun. It was nice out but a cool breeze yet, still fun to enjoy playing in the yard and in Papa's "clubhouse". (deer stand) Taylor didn't want to stop playing to go home.

Nice Buddy

Nice to see Mom's side of the family on Saturday at Grandma Pedersen's 90th birthday party. Plus, looking forward to seeing lots of them again in a couple weeks!

Raking Leaves & Gma's 80th bday

Taylor helped me rake the rest of the Fall leaves up last week. She was my big helper and slept good that night! lol.


Taylor was pretending to be Heather in this picture, lol. She said, "I need my glasses on so I can see my lunch!" :) She's got her purse and keys too!


Hailey was excited to see Auntie Shelley!



Grandma's 80th Birthday was Saturday 3/20 so we had cake and snacks with them Sunday afternoon

Taylor always has to steal A. Shell's shoes!

playing the organ!

Signs of Spring! (clowns & ballerinas!)

Every time Hailey has a skirt on now she has to dance around and spin her skirt :) She likes to copy her sister and pretend she's a ballerina.

We've had a beautiful start to the week, getting up into the 60s yesterday. Gpa & Gma P came over on Sunday for some playing and our first wagon ride of the year!

We spent most of yesterday outside too. It's chilly in the morning but was almost hot in long sleeves in the afternoon.

The big kids were so happy to be able to play on the toys in the backyard again!

Peek-a-boo!

All this energy must've tickled their funny bones because they were acting like clowns for awhile and making funny faces at eachother and me :-P

This is the new painting I bought for the living room and I love it! I scoped it out on Saturday with the girls and went back last night to show Ben. There was another one I really liked but this one matches our decor better.

Ear infections, V-Day, Skirts & Rhinelander

It's been a busy few weeks and I realize I haven't posted, which I should've here and there to make this post shorter! But oh well. Lots of pictures to include since these kids are just too darn photogenic, or at least this mommy thinks so :)


These are the girls new swimsuits they had gotten to wear to the waterpark in previous post. I forgot to post this picture of them trying them on. Big sissy always hugging little sissy :)


The girls got a v-day package from Auntie K & Uncle J and helped Hailey feel a little better while she had another double ear infection. She is finally starting to act like her normal self, now just need to get her to sleep in her own bed all night again!


Goofy Taylor - always the cheeseball!



and her sister that's just a little silly (according to Taylor :P)

Playing at Grandma P's house, stacking tupperware and bowling them down

A Dora skirt came in the mail for Hailey from Grandma M and she loves it! (can you imagine?)

I have to try to squeeze in a picture with them sometimes so they remember what I look like later, lol

We went up to Rhinelander this past weekend with Gma & Gpa P and Auntie Shell for a little relaxing and a little snowmobiling... plus a little shopping.

The girls pretended to play slots while we were eating breakfast one morning. They thought it was pretty cool.

Playing in the hotel. Think Taylor put 50 miles on Gma this weekend!

Hailey enjoyed some Auntie Shelley bonding time

The girls in their cute Gma M hats on the way home Saturday

Have to pose on Sunday in our pretty Spring dresses too :)

Ok, it's March... when's the first day of Spring? I try not to complain, but our snow has been melting a lot and it's starting to look like a slime hole all around town. Either snow and cover up this junk or melt and give me some green grass!
