Underwear everywhere

Koby often remarks on the lack of clothing the girls end up wearing by the time he gets home from work.  I never noticed until I looked at the recent pictures of play time I'd taken.  Wow, we really do play in panties/diaper a lot!



I just love how Paige is watching Charlotte and listening to what she was saying.  She just adores her big sister and wants to be everywhere she is.

Here they were reading together, so peacefully while I was making dinner.



Charlotte is blowing on a wooden whistle as loud as she can, "playing" and dancing along with the music.  I finally pulled down an old CD player and broke out some of the children's CDs I had from teaching.  She LOVES listening to them!


 I can't even say we're at least always dressed in underclothes - when it rains, there is nothing Charlotte loves more than stripping out of whatever she is wearing and playing at the rain gutter's end.


She told me her toys were floating in their rings and having a party.


Don't think it's just Charlotte being cute - Paige is really turning into a little person.  If she's not trailing her big sister, she's getting into something.  Like the puffs out of the pantry...which she dragged into the living room...and destroyed the bag...

Or the clean laundry.  But I don't mind such a cute helper!

Painting nails with daddy


It happened - Koby gave his first mani/pedi.  And he did a great job. Charlotte showed off her nails for days!

Twin tornadoes

Ever since she was born, Charlotte has had the habit of playing with her hair on the right side of her head while drinking her bottle.  She used to roll and rub the same strip from the root down to the tip between two fingers, but in the past few months it's grown long enough that she figured out how to twirl it.  She usually twirls it while falling asleep, as well. 

Obviously she fell asleep with her finger still twined in her hair, because this is how she woke up this morning:



Originally, upon waking, she had just one, but after drinking her morning milk, she had made a second - I guess her normal twirling spot was taken!
