Getting back in the groove...

Well here we are, home for a week and settling back in. The kiddos are enjoying getting to know their Christmas toys better, and we swim almost every day it seems. Which they love. Oh! this is cute: Nuala's new sound that she's working on lately is "wee-wee-wee-wee," she sounds like the little piggy going all the way home, it's too funny! Hahahaha!!! ....sigh... anyway, here are a few pictures of the tykes:

They have discovered the pull-toy love. 'Round and 'round the house they'll go, dragging a little friend behind them. Bran especially enjoys this and is talented enough to pull two at once. Yes, as you can imagine, we're very proud ;)

Bran loves to push and move things. Sometimes he'll grunt, since he's such a tough guy. He is super pleased with himself while all is going well, but, wow! He does not like it if Nuala interferes in any way while he's working. I mean, c'mon! It's man-work!

This second picture Nuala had dared to put her hand on the bucket as she strolled past...the nerve...

Nuala was in the middle of baking a quiche when she realized she had forgotten to get her hair done, and with the Home Teachers coming that just won't do! So it's off to Utah to see Roshelle for some hair help. She's complaining because no one is pushing her.

you really should collect all these little tidbits you write about the kids and make them a story book. Trust me they would love to have something like this to read when they're older. You have such writing flair you could even publish something someday. Granny Jentzsch made Daniel a story book about him with easy words he could read. Instead of Dick and Jane it was SEE DANIEL RUN...really cool idea!

That cracks me up Ive had Mathias running off with my oven mitts alot and for a while I couldnt find them. I swear kids have magic hiding holes that only they can find. Annie just hopes that her hair will look as good as Nualas the back sticks straight up now when its clean!!

We print our blog entries every month or two, so we have a binder full of stories for them to enjoy in the future :) I keep journals for them, also, but that sometimes falls by the wayside a little (blush). That is a cute idea, the storybook! Oh, we also print off the comments y'all make, it'll be fun for them to read what others thought, too. So, heehee, beware: you are being immortalized...

How sweet Nuala but it will take a little more than Bran's pushing to get you here!!!! (and I'm not sure if I can help you too much with the hair;) )

Hey there. That is so good that you print your emails out. I love your stories. Roshelle I have faith that you could fix her hair. I still should get to fix mine.

I love the pictures and stories so much. I will be getting cable internet in the next month or so. I will be able to see the videos better and have the pics come in better. As it is now I have to be at Maria's or Heidi's or Sari's house, top see the videos. Love GB
