Projects

Aaron cringes every time I say the words "I have an idea." No wonder really, because it means work for him. :)

I have been trying to figure out how best to store the girls' dress-ups and make them easily accessible without having to pull them all out of the drawer to find one. Well, I was in the garage the other day and saw all of the cans that we had saved from Eleanor's formula days. (Yep, my strangeness knows no bounds.) Anyway, we had all of these cans and a few from scout's popcorn, so we attached them to the wall in the toy closet and they are now the dress-up holders. Check it out! It works great. One dress for every can. Now I just wish we had more cans. :)

Brrrrr

It is -26 degrees this morning but absolutely gorgeous looking out my window. The sky is clear and the sun is shining and the frost on the trees is amazingly beautiful. We have had a lot of snow the last few days and Aaron is so very pleased to have the snowblower. Penelope likes it too. She loves to get all bundled up and follow Daddy as he is pushing the snowblower. I asked Eleanor if she wanted to go play in the snow and she shook her head "no" very emphatically. She was perfectly content to watch from the window, as was I.

Eleanor Zoolander

Does this remind you of Zoolander? Love the look on her face!

Eleanor has just discovered the joy of dress-ups. So very cute.

Copy Cat

We drove around looking at Christmas lights tonight. About 20 minutes into it, Penelope did a huge yawn and then immediately said "I'm not tired." Then about 5 minutes later she said "I'm not very happy." Then about 5 minutes later she was asleep. Aaron tried to say something to Penelope and I told him that she was asleep. That's when we realized Penelope was snoring and that Eleanor had spit out her pacifier so she could mimick Penelope's snore. Pretty good impression too. We had a good chuckle about that.

Comic Relief

My girls are pretty silly sometimes. Eleanor not intentionally so. She wakes up with the most interesting hair sometimes.

Penelope on the other hand, is silly on purpose. What a fabulous sense of fashion!
