Week in Review

I'm so behind I'm just going to leave you with a random sampler of our week. You can just pretend I've been publishing these tidbits as separate posts at regular intervals throughout the week.

Pedi, anyone?
First off, it's been FAR too long since we've had a video of just Brooklyn. Not to be outdone by Kate, Brooklyn is trying hard to make her aunt Christina proud...

A few days ago I trimmed her toenails, and since they are so weirdly shaped, I filed them also. She got ahold of the file and immediately tried to do it herself. She knows what that thing is for! Now if you hand her a file she knows right away what to do with it. Socks don't matter.

Sisterly love
Hm, as long as we're uploading videos, I might as well add this one of Kate and Brooklyn sharing a little sisterly love. Brooklyn LOVES giving kisses...


"Special" deliveries...
It always cracks us up when we see delivery guys do this with packages. That doormat is definitely going to keep it safe from theft. Hmm...no package here!... This week it was US who got a hidden package! (Ummmm....yes that wreath has been on my door since Christmas.)

Brooklyn's First Spaghetti Dinner
This one is self-explanatory. I just had to include it because it's my obligation as a mother to share photos of my babies eating spaghetti. Right?
Travis's mysterious lab experiments continue...
And he's started bringing them home. Like last weekend a tray of mouse brains took up residence in my refrigerator. I kid you not.
Coming next week...
This time we really HAVE been busy. Promise. Maybe later we will even give you an update.

10 sweet nothings:

Summer said...

hehe, you can stalk my blog anytime. yes, dave and i do camp and we're so ready to do some local weekend trips since we're right next to black hills here in clarksburg.

it'd be way fun to do a camping weekend together and no worries about camping with little ones, we can handle it ;-)

i'm really glad you said something because its kind of an unspoken rule to not impose on couples with kids when you don't have any yourself - so thank you for bridging the gap!

The videos are so cute! Your girls are adorable. I can't believe how much they've changed since we moved.

Rat brains, huh? I thought it was bad when we had a skull in our apartment. I seriously don't know if I could stomach having rat brains in our fridge. Kudos to you!

Oh, and I love the paint color in the kitchen!
