Getting caught up

A picture dump from my phone...

We make lots of trips to Home Depot these days

Girls in their new outfits from Grandma Ruth

Mustache fun
(thanks to Aunt Helen and Uncle Ed - the girls love these)

Helen and Ed also brought the girls skirts and tiaras - so fun

Mustache selfie

Typical daycare drop-off morning
Girls love to take their shoes and socks off in the short
5 minute drive from our house to the daycare

Can't believe how big these girls are getting

Can we go outside?

Finally has long enough hair to french braid

Sleepy girls

We had a playdate with Grayson while his mom and
dad looked at houses in Downers Grove
We're soon to be neighbors - yay!

Avery has a hollow leg these days
Always asks for more and points to her sister's plate

How is this even comfortable?!?

Avery is such a Daddy's girl

She thinks she's hot stuff with these shades on

Sports team day at school
Only thing that fits them currently are these Fighting Illini shirts

Fun at the park

In the sand play area at Ty Warner park - this park is awesome

Visit from Matt's family

Matt's Dad and stepmom and some of his extended family came to Chicago for a visit. They stayed with us for a couple of days before heading into the city for some sightseeing. The girls had a blast playing with Caden and getting attention from their Grandpa and Grandma! :)

Caden's thinking "hey, guys, what's going on up there?"

Morgan had a blast pushing a real baby around 

Hang on Caden!

Grandpa and Morgan

Taking a walk with Grandma and Grandpa

Running on the path by the pond

Holding hands while crossing the street

Bunnies

A week or so ago, Matt called me to the basement and said "here - hold this and don't shake it" and handed me a box. Um, ok. Then he tells me, there's a baby bunny in it! Um, what - in our house?!? Turns out we have a family of baby bunnies in our backyard and two bunnies had fallen into our egress windows and couldn't get back out. So, Matt opened the window and put a bunny in the box to release in the backyard. Well, one bunny was fine, the other one was feisty. He made a break for it and hopped around our basement for a while. Matt finally cornered him near the sump pump. The whole thing was pretty comical. In the end, the bunnies were safe and sound and hopped off into the sunset. And the next day Matt got plastic covers to top the the egress windows so we wouldn't have to worry about this happening again!

Kiddos

The girls are getting better about letting me take their picture! Avery even gives me a cheesy grin when I say "smile"! :)
