Easter

We had a fun Easter this year. Here are some random pictures since still shots or posing (except Ella, she loves posing) is out of the question. I'll say who is who since I dressed them all alike.

Obviously Ella and Maisy

Baby Chicks Pictures and Video

On saturday we went to Big R to show the girls all the baby chickens, ducks and bunnies. We couldn't resist, so now we have Katie, Cutie and Kyle (the red one)

Likeable Pictures

These are just some random pictures from the last couple weeks.

Here are Maddie and Maisy at the college.

Maisy and her friend Sam

Ella and Maisy wrestling which is just another name for hugging :)

Maisy

Maisy found a clever way to hold her blankets and stuffed animals and still be hands free. (also, she didn't get hurt when she fell off the bed)

Sunny Days

Last weekend we went to the college to enjoy the sun. My girls love the college with the huge lawn, a building they think is a castle and lots of places to explore.

We collected some pine cones and made bird feeders

There are some great trees to hide behind...
Ella used the parking lot to practice riding her bike with no training wheels

Maddie and "stuffy" were happy running in circles.

Action Shots

On Friday nights Ella gets to move her mattress into the babes room for a slumber party. They have lots of fun jumping from mattress to mattress to mattress

Made Up Verses

Ella has been making up her own verses lately. Some of the cutest ones are "I will shine up to the heavens, Psalm 1:900" and "We will shine our smiles to the world to praise the Lord, Psalm 8:4" "Number 1, we will praise the Lord to keep us safe. Psalm 3rd 8 and 9"

Ella's little buddy

Ella pretty much loves everyone but Jacey is one of her favorites.

Poor Maddie!

Maddie has had a scratchy voice and a cough for a few weeks so yesterday I took her to the doctor to have a little checkup. I was expecting him to say it was nothing to worry about and it was just leftover from a cold she had awhile ago. But it wasn't. She has damaged vocal cords, possibly asthma and is probably going to need to have her tonsils out. We were not expecting that.

Hugs

I think Ella is cute towards the end of this video when she kisses the tops of her sisters head

Pictures from Christmas Time

The week before Christmas I got to watch the Kolbo girls and Posenjak boys so I took the opportunity to get a picture of all the cousins. The closest thing to a good picture was the one they were all being silly

Christmas day. Here's another silly picture with the other cousins
Madelyn, Ella, Jacey, Maisy in there matching pajamas. Josiah and Jasper got some too but I didn't have a picture with all of them

Ella cozy with great grandpa Lou

The day after Christmas we had a very chilly, icy sledding day

Merry Christmas

Notice how huge Ella's mittens look

Funny Girl

Ella was so excited about the first snow. I thought this was cute how she had her care bear peeking out the window.

Snow Angels

My angels making angels.

Amateur Photographer

Ella has been taking lots of pictures lately and I thought I should show off her skills. I have been trying to get her to think about what she is taking a picture of instead of just clicking away. So here is some of her work. I asked her why she took each picture and the quotes are her answers.

"I just took it cause it was cute and pretty"

"I just thought you would like it"

"I took that because I was starting to walk"

"It was just a princess horse"

"It was kinda funny" "They are having a tea party"

"the sheep is having a tea party by himself cause the unicorn didn't want too"

"they were nice steps to a nice building"

"it was from my birthday and it wasn't old yet"

Update

So...It's been forever since we've updated the blog. With Facebook I don't keep up this site as much as I should. I just wanted to post some random pictures of the girls.

Hallow-rina's

We decided to act on a whim and take our girls trick or treating. So we dug through our dress up clothes and came up with ballerina-princess-fairies (my mom got them wings but I didn't get any pictures with them). They loved it!

Maddie, Ella, Maisy

Here they are being frightful monsters. Scary huh?
