"Snow" day fun

There's no snow, but lots of fun taking place.

Learning to write

Rosalyn brought this home from school - can you read what it says at the bottom?

Carsen counts

When we start from the beginning,
It sounds like she counts to 9, skipping 6. Not bad!

Valentine creativity

Rosi demonstrates her mailbox that she made for Valentines at school.

Carsen art

Here is some of Carsen's recent artwork. I think the words in the center top of each page are what Carsen told her teachers that she drew.

And these two photos are the valentines card she made. 

Big red

We can't believe how big and interactive Teagan is getting - Rosi and Carsen get so excited when she smiles at them.

It also seems like her hair is getting redder and redder.

DNA

Building the double helix. :)

Smarty pants

Fun project- we gave her this kit for Christmas. Last weekend we isolated DNA from blueberries, and today we build a model of DNA.

Dance photos

Rosi (and the rest of us) had a great time at her dance tonight. Her only complaint was that there were too many breaks in the music for games and competitions (hula hooping, trivia questions, etc).

Submitted

140 pages. This is what I sent to my dissertation committee tonight. Fingers crossed that the changes they require aren't too major.

Dressing up

Corey and I rarely worry too much about what clothes the girls choose to wear as long as it's reasonably weather appropriate - with two strong-willed children, it's just not worth the mental and emotional energy. So they often leave the house in clothes that don't match or clothes that others may think are not optimal to the occasion (dresses to play outside, shorts and tshirts for church, Princess dresses at daycare, etc).

Yesterday the stars aligned, and they both dressed up in these cute dresses they got for Christmas. But of course they still had to be silly and only wanted to let me take a photo of their backsides, so I did.
