What a sweet girl

Well I may never be able to send Mary Kathryn to the gold couch again. When I was upstairs saying good night she hugged me and said " God gave me such a sweet mommy" and then said "you are the only mommy I could love". I don't know where she got this from, but it truly melted my heart. Thank you God for this amazing girl.

Valentine Girls

These are my cute Valentine's Day Girls. Anne could give cupid a run for his money because she loves to make a kissing sound (or pop with her mouth), it is really quite cute and warms my heart all day long. And this morning on the way to school Mary Kathryn was belting out her songs - Swing Low Sweet Chariot goes like this - Swing low sweet cheerio, mama is going to carry me home. She believes that those are the words and therefore it is "my song" so I must sing along. I love these girls! Thank you Grammy for their special Valentine's Day outfits!

And Happy Valentine's to my love, the tulips are beautiful!

Spike

So, I have two daughters. Thus I realize there are sure to be MANY hair issues in my future. And truthfully MK and I have hair issues daily, in that I have to do something with her crazy curly locks on a daily basis. And that is a challenge, especially for me, a non-primping type girl. But it does look cute when fixed so I give it my best, but sometimes that is not that great.

On the other hand, I have Little Annie with the mohawk. Poor girl is constantly having people comment on her hair. Even the stock boy at Publix noticed and called her Spike. (Stock boy you are not funny!). Anyway, surely at some point gravity is going to run its course and help us out, because this mere mortal cannot get that hair to lay down!

Fun with Bubby

Mary Kathryn and Anne always have at Oma and Papa's house but especially when Uncle Bubby is around. Anne loves that he will get on the floor with her and Mary Kathryn likes that he does what she asks him to!

Mills!

One year old - we can't believe it! What an adorable little boy!! We are so glad that you are a part of our lives we love you!

Circus of Dreams

We had such a good time at the Circus. I wasn't sure if Mary Kathryn would like the Clowns and noise and lights, but she had a blast. She did ask why it had to be so loud, but I think I have asked her that same question before soo. . . We were so glad that her buddies were able to come, and I think we are looking forward to next year when some more will be old enough to join in the fun!

These 2 mommies have been known to consider joining the circus, watch out!

Mary Kathryn was trying to follow a clown's lead with new dance moves, she probably wanted to teach him a thing or 2!

Looks like Double Trouble!

Every 3 year old girl need a pink fur coat and hat, right?

Another one bites the dust

Happy 30th Kathryn, aka Stinky! The Japanese Steak House is always a treat. We love you!

The finished product

I have been meaning to post this for awhile to say - Great job Gregg on the swingset! With these smiling faces I know you are proud of your handy work! Now, how about a play house :)?

Quotes from MKL

2 funny things from MK -
"I am building a very awesome puppet show." (with blocks and Little People)

"Mommy, when I ask you if you are going to put something on my plate that I don't like you say, no Mary Kathryn I am not". (my role is very easy if I do what I am told!)
