Bunny

Meet the newest member of our family. This is Robbie, or Kelly. We have only had her a couple of hours and already her name has changed 2 times. I am sure one name will stick, I am just not sure what it is yet.

Ali loves her. She is only about 2 months old and she is a very calm rabbit. Kat has already picked her up by the ears, and no scratches or bites. Hopefully my girls won't be too rough with her; if you notice in the picture, she is cornered.

Ballet class, and a new hairband

Brand new headband that I HAD to get.


Ali actually posing for a picture. I think she doesn't like Kat getting all the attention.


This is Ali in her ballet class. I don't think she learns a single thing in this class, but she loves it. I know the video is bad, colors are a bit yellow, and the teacher is TOTALLY blocking the shot, but since we have to look from behind a glass window, it isn't too bad. Enjoy

First comes walking then comes...dancing?

The next day (September 15) after my last post about Kat walking Nick got home from 30 hour call. I had to show him Kat's new skill since he could only view it from his iphone in between visiting patients. We sat down and Nick asked Kat to walk to me. Her vacuum was blocking her so she leaned down to move it out of the way, and it started to make music. Below is the result.

WALKING!!!!!

I know it has been too long since I posted some pics of the girls. So, here is a big one... a video of Kat walking!

Isn't she just the cutest walker ever!?!? Sorry it is so dark in the room, I should have turned on a few lights.

Ali just finished her gymnastics class,

and started ballet. Girls in ballet clothes are really just adorable!


Her first day of school with her pencil box, though it is only once a week for 2 hours (co-op style).

Abuelita got her this little house from Costco. Ali LOVES it. She gets to decorate it and bring in only her favorite things. (Recent presents from Abuelito, and of course her "Jim Pyramid")

Oh and Kat is allowed too I guess!

2nd time is NOT a charm

So I wanted to keep everyone updated on my sweet avo-project by posting pictures of my avo-tree as it grew from a seed. I might as well just re post the last picture because my seed looks EXACTLY the same, except maybe a little bit of mold on the outside of the seed. What am i doing wrong?????

2nd times a charm!

Awhile back I posted about my soon-to-be avocado tree and I am sure everyone who read that post is anxiously wondering what became of my little attempt at horticulture. Well you need wait no longer. IT FAILED! I wanted to post a picture of my failure, but decided that a rotten seed is not that cool. The seed split, so I thought it was going to grow, but then after a month of nothing it finally fell apart due to mold and rot. Now I have another chance! This seed is my second attempt and I am sure this one will work. It is smaller, much smaller (that is a 4oz baby food container), but I am sure the avocados will be tastier than the other ones would have been anyway!


Just because I thought it was cute. Here is Ty holding Ali up to pick that non-ripe orange. I let her eat it later and she finally understood what not ripe means!

Ali with her Uncle Jason who is leaving back to BYU today. Bye Jason!

I wanted to post this picture because it shows the enormity of Kat's cheeks. Note: there is nothing in her mouth.

Black beans are yummy, but they are messy!

Instead of one

Instead of one long post I decided to split it into 2, so....

We have a new addition to our family, leather sofas! Kat is in there for size comparison. They are huge. I really love them.

Kat approves. I really think she just loves to walk along them. Too much empty space did not suit her well. It is too easy to be naughty with open space, and she loves to be naughty.

My sister-in-law, Gaby is about to have a baby boy! so we went to her baby shower in San Diego. Here is Ali being such a great big sister. She had been with her Abuelita for almost a week without Kat and when she saw Kat she was pretty excited. Kat was almost equally excited. I am glad my girls love each other so much!

This was just a pretty picture! I wish the window had been clean, or I was better at photoshop.
