Vision

While playing house with Sophia:

 Sophia: Mommy, do you want Cherrios, granola or Honey Nut Cherrios?
Me: I want Cherrios with granola.
Sophia: Um, that's not my vision. You have to pick one or the other.
Me: Did you just say, "That's not my vision"? 

Sophia: Yep. That means that wasn't what I had in mind.

Where in the world did she learn that?

Cute Dresses

 

Grandma Barbie sent some new dresses for the girls.  Here are some pictures.  It was really hard to get Livvy to stay still.

To Grandma's House We Go

A few weeks ago Sophia went and had a sleepover at Grandma Louise's house.  She had such a fun time taking the trolley, eating mexican food at Old Town and jumping on Grandma's trampoline.  She has been asking to do it again.  Here are some pics of her all ready to go!

 

Noah's Birthday

We had our friend, Noah's, birthday party last weekend and the girls had a blast playing with friends and playing at the park.  Happy first birthday, Noah!

 

Clean

Daddy cleaned up the backyard so we have been spending a lot of time out there.  The girls paint the playhouse with chalk, clean it and then paint it again.  Sophia loves to sit in our big orange bucket and Livvy loves to swing.

 

 

 

Livvy 17 Months

Our Livvy is full of life.  She is saying a lot more words now, but still is pretty difficult to understand.  Her "pwease" and "tankto" are my favorite.  A few weeks ago she discovered the word "no" and loves to use it freely and often.  Poor Sophia is always asking Livvy to do things and Livvy always says, "No."  We are working on her saying, "No thank you." 

We went to the doctor recently and she still only weighs 20 lbs. and is a little over 31inches tall.  She may be little, but she is a fireball.  She loves to swing, swim under the water in the swimming pool, jump into the pool, eat blueberries, take naps, give snuggles to her sister and wrestle.  Livvy is definitely more opinionated than her sister so you know exactly what she wants and doesn't want. 

 This is her "no" face

We love our little Love Bug.
