On Monday and Tuesday we were able to spend some time at Mike and Alison's house. We love to get to visit with them, and this time seemed especially fun. The kids all got along great. Sylvie and Emilyn played so well, and even played together some. Emilyn kept calling Sylvie "baby" even though Sylvie is bigger and older than her. It was pretty cute, she kept wanting Sylvie to come play with her. She would say, "Baby, slide", "Baby, food", etc. Jens and Matisyn played like they never missed a beat, and hardly had any disagreements. They have always loved playing together, but they usually get into arguments with their two strong personalities. Alison and I actually got to enjoy the time talking and laughing, instead of refereeing the kids the whole time. The first afternoon we spent at Apple Hill enjoying apple treats, cider, and fresh fruit. The next day we took all the girls to the little zoo while Jens was at kindergarten, and spent the afternoon at the park. Alison made delicious dinners for us both nights, we are always well taken care of when we visit! I drove home later Tuesday night, both girls fell asleep before I hit the freeway. Did I mention we tried to let Jens and Matisyn sleep in the same room in bunk beds? It took quite some time, and finally Alison sitting on the floor of the room, to get them to settle down and fall asleep. So after two days of lots of playing and not much sleep, they were tired. They also had a problem keeping their shirts on. They thought they were so funny running around with them off. We figured it was an improvement though from last year when everything but underwear came off! I'm not sure when we need to start worrying!
All the above pictures are at Apple Hill. They all loved the cart, riding in it, pushing it, all things cart were wonderful!
Emilyn loved these dancing scarves that Sylvie got for Christmas. Mike put on the music and both babies were really moving!
"Cheese, Mommy"
I think Matisyn looks so grown up here with her braids and hoody. How did she get this big?!!!
Love this face!
Emilyn loved this zoo too. I love the look on her face, the "kitties" are her favorite.
Matisyn is learning how to pump her legs to swing. I'm not sure which on of us is happier!
Emilyn loves swinging. And how is she big enough to climb like this?!!
