Piper's Project

With spring coming and seeing all the plants at the nurseries, Piper decided that she wanted to plant a garden. We are not really set up for a garden so I decided that we would have to come up with a new plan. I found these little green houses at Wal-Mart a few weeks ago and Piper was thrilled with the idea of growing something. Her first plant was an eggplant but it only lasted 48 hours before Paige got ahold of it and dumped it all over the floor. So back to the store we went and this time she picked out a sweet pepper plant. To be honest with you I really didn't think that anything was going to grow, but as you can see there are sprouts! Piper is so excited!!! She checks on her little plant everyday and gives it words of encouragement. It is so cute to watch. It will be interesting to watch the progress of her little project.

Spaghetti Fun!!!

Paige has just started to feed herself and I couldn't help but take some pictures of her after we had spaghetti the other night. She started the meal out with a bib on and taking tiny delicate bites. This is how she looked when she was done. I think she had a good time :0)


Random

Just some random pictures I took this last week that I wanted to share.
Here is proof that Spring just might be on its way.
Paige's sweet smile.

Piper and Mica - more like sisters than friends.

Easter Sunday

We had such a nice relaxing Easter. Doug took Piper camping that weekend so we didn't start our celebration until they got home that afternoon. As soon as they walked in the door Piper asked if the Easter Bunny had come. We told her to look out the back door and see for herself. There were eggs everywhere! She couldn't wait to grab her basket and head out for a fun egg hunt. Paige was so excited that Piper was excited and couldn't wait to get outside with her big sister. Since Paige is a new walker, Doug took Paige around and helped her collect some eggs for her basket.



When the girls got done outside, they came in to find their Easter presents.




It was such a nice and relaxing day. I am so thankful for my family. I truly am blessed!

Camping Fun!

This past weekend Doug took Piper on a special daddy/daughter camping trip to the desert. They both had so much fun. They went on hikes, rock hunting, 4 wheeling, and had a big camp fire. Piper especially had a good time sleeping in the van. She thought that was the best. She hasn't quit talking about all the fun they had since they got home. I know she is anxiously awaiting for the next camping adventure with her daddy.

Spring!

Here are some cute spring pictures we had taken of the girls this week. They looked so cute in their new Easter outfits. I am so happy that my mom was here to go with us to have these adorable pictures taken.

Fun with Eggs

We finally got around to dying our Easter eggs yesterday. Both girls had a ton of fun, especially Piper. Here are just a few shots from our afternoon of fun.

Finally a Pony!

No not a real pony but a little pony tail. I decided to see if Paige finally had enough hair to stick in a pony tail. Well she had just enough for a bit of hair to stick straight up. I don't think she liked it, but I absolutely LOVE IT!!!! This is her mad face. Finally a cute little smile. Of course I had to include a picture of Piper and Claire. They are both getting so big!
