Kids These Days

They still drink their milk on the floor together.  I still love it.

A looked at me and made this face when I went to take her picture.  I don't remember M ever doing this at her age.  It really shows her personality, though.

M has really taken to technology lately.  All she wants to do is play PBS Kids games on the internet or spell her name on her new play phone.  She gets it right most of the time, so that is encouraging.

I made these shirts for the girls for Easter.  M is getting to be a great model, and A just wants to sit on my lap the whole time or touch the camera lens.  If she wasn't so cute, I might not love it so much. 

Tag, I'm It

So, I know I don't blog much except to post pictures, but my bff Shauna tagged me to post some photos and answer some questions.

Here are the rules:
1. Post these rules.
2. Post a photo of yourself and 11 random things.
3. Answer the questions set for you in the original post.
4. Create 11 new questions and tag people to answer them.
5. Go to their blog and tell them they've been tagged.

Sounds like fun!  Here we go:

1.  What is your favorite song on your iPod? Hard question... Blow Away by A Fine Frenzy.
2.  The power to fly, or, be invincible.  Why? Be invincible.  For sure.  I wouldn't be afraid of heights anymore!
3.  What is your least favorite mode of transportation? Bus.  Ugh.
4.  Why do you blog? Family history.  That, and fame, of course.
5.  Where do you want to be in 5 years? Still raising my little kiddos.  Hopefully having a lot of fun!  10 years? Doing some kind of design work, whether it's fabric, graphics, interiors, or something else.
6.  What food/beverage could you never live without? Macaroni and cheese or whipped cream.
7.  What is your dream vacation? Bora Bora, New Zealand, or Australia.
8.  What is your greatest fear? Not being good enough.
9.  What is your favorite quote? "Far from what I once was, but not yet what I'm going to be."
10. If you had to change your first name, what would it be? Penelope or Claire.
11.  What is your greatest joy in life? Definitely my family.


That was a lot harder than I expected!  And I realized that I have a ton of pictures of the kids and not much of anything else.
