Miss Independent

Our little Lili is in a very independent stage. Here she is, putting on her bike helmet....all by herself. :)

Starting out...notice the rear reflector?



Almost there...



Ta-da! All by myself. :)



Beautiful!

Our little cherubs!

Henri and Lili have been taking part in cherub choir at church. It's very sweet.

Here is Henri--robed and ready.




And Lili....


In church...they were scheduled to sing two songs. They made it through one. :)




Here is a little snapshot...

More posts coming soon...

More bikes, mommy time

Jeff ended up going to a conference last weekend in Chicago. Before he left--we had to have one more spin on the bike. Here they are....pumping up the tires. Henri loves "tools."




Everyone helping.....




And Lili....she's so into biking. :)



While dad's away...the mice will play....



Switching it up...like Lili's strapless dress?



Pushing Henri....



Exhausted after a long day....



More to post soon....

The pledge and spiders....

Now that Henri is in the 3 year old class--they raise the flag and recite the pledge of allegiance each morning. Here he is...reciting for mom and dad.

And Lili...wanted to show off her school skills, too. Here she is singing the Itsy Bitsy Spider song. :)

Henri is at the emergency room as I type. He thought it was a good idea to jump off his bed--and split his eye open. :( hopefully--it's a quick glue and they are home. Three ER trips for that boy...I guess the good news is we are no longer shocked when it happens. Let's hope he makes it through these early years with both his eyebrows!

Will post photos soon.

Happy labor day weekend....

We took the long weekend and went to our favorite spot...Disney....for the long weekend. We spent our time at Animal Kingdom Lodge, mostly at the pool. With one night at the Magic Kingdom.

Here are a few pics from the weekend:

It was two smiley face days for both kids....so here we are, fresh from school, ready to start the weekend. Their first peek at the animals.





My favorite, the giraffes.



So close...amazing!



Lili...getting ready for the pool.



Henri...making a picture.



Lili, post pool, with lollipop.



More animals...they're awesome!



Checking for more animals....



Magic Kingdom....their favorite parade....


Lili was the lucky one....dancing with Jessie.



Our happy dancer....



Jessie took her on the Congo line....



A hug goodbye....



Riding the teacups....



Henri's glasses. Which he wore all night...including for the 3D movie. :)



Our next trip to Disney...might be....not so scary Halloween....



Back home...eating popsicles. :)



Sharing is caring. :)
