Hallie had a great time just playing in the snow and watching Natalie

Maybe next time she can try it.

Toothless Natalie

2011-02-03T21:53:00.003-07:00

Natalie lost her first tooth last week
After about an hour of looking and playing with the tooth she lost the tooth somewhere
it's a good thing she had smart toothfairy who found it and left her a dollar under her pillow anyway.

The other tooth right next to it is wobbly too

so it won't be long until we have a visit from the toothfairy again!

Hallie wasn't so sure about it but she just took all the candy off the house and ate it.

Halloween

2009-11-11T17:04:00.009-07:00

Over Labor Day Weekend we went to Bozeman and spent time with family. My parents had a rocket launcher that the little girls just loved . (ok everyone but Hallie and Logan) But they would help put the rockets on and then go get them and we repeated the process too many times to count!

Natalie would take turns with her cousins pushing the button for Blast Off!

Hallie climbed into the chair by herself

2009-02-27T10:45:00.002-07:00

The Girls just chilling together.

To our surprise we found Hallie sitting in the chair that she had climbed into all by herself. She loves to feel like a big girl by sitting in chairs. The only way she has figured out to get down is to fall forward and try and catch herself on the floor with her hands.

Santa Claus Picture

2008-12-07T20:20:00.002-07:00

We could not get Natalie to lift up her head. She would move her eyes but not her head. She did not cry so I guess we can give her some credit. We think she was just stunned to be sitting on Santa Claus's lap. She did sing in Ariel's voice (she wants a little mermaid doll) when Santa asked what she wanted for Christmas.

Oh Christmas Tree

2008-12-07T20:13:00.003-07:00

We put up our Christmas Tree and the girls tried to help us. Our tree looks fake because it is so full. All we hope for is that Hallie doesn't pull it down!
This year we added a train set around our tree and the girls just love it.
