Friday Fun!

My mom usually picks up Anna Kate and Eleonora on Friday afternoons for a little fun. This past Friday, she was at a friend’s house, so my dad picked them up instead. They got a banana split to share and then played in the family room together.

Anna Kate’s Actual Birthday!

We celebrated all day long on Anna Kate’s birthday!

She opened her presents from us.

For dinner she asked for spaghetti with 5 meatballs.
I bought some cheap meatballs from the freezer section, and they were disgusting!
Had to put them outside for the neighbor’s dog Buddy.

She also requested birthday donuts, which did not go out for Buddy.
One of her gifts was a Little Live Bird. 
It repeats whatever you say and whistles little tunes.
Lydia somehow has three, so Anna Kate was thrilled to have one of her own!
Oh and I found this family photo on my phone a few days later. Ha!

Wacky Wednesday!

Last week was Wacky Wednesday at Awana.
Lydia decided it’d be wacky to wear her pajamas.

I love my girls!!!

Basketball Star!


Lydia seems to be enjoying basketball so far.
She hasn’t made a basket yet during a game,
but she did get the award for good effort. :)

Fun at the Track!

Last week Jessica and I were walking at the track,
and the cousins had the best time playing together!

Josiah took these pictures for a photography contest 
and won a blue ribbon for the picture below!



Steven sure loves his cousins!
They are SO incredibly sweet to him!


P.S. Anna Kate and Eleonora were in on the fun too, 
but they somehow missed getting in the pictures.

Basketball!

Much to my surprise, Lydia decided she wanted to play basketball.

And so far she’s really liking it!
She had her first game on Saturday. 
Her team won!

Dancing Siblings!

On the first day of Lydia’s Christmas break, the kids celebrated by having a little dance party. Steven loved it! He was just starting to walk on his own at the time. He came a long way over the break. He can walk about ten steps at a time now before he goes back to his preferred method of traveling, crawling.
