I can't believe it has been over a month since my last post. I wonder if anyone is still out there?
Last week was pretty bad for us, but it had a happy ending. My mom had a heart attack last Sunday night, (and drove herself to the hospital instead of calling me, but that's another story :-) After a heart cath on Monday, followed by a harrowing 12 hours of TIA attacks, a day in ICU and another couple of days in the hospital, she went home & is recovering fine. We're VERY lucky.
Other than that, life has been chugging along pretty normally (whatever that is!)
So I'm just going to post a few pictures starting with the most recent today and hope to stay more current with my blogging!
It was such a beautiful weekend here. March and April are the best months. Then it will be hot as blazes with 900% humidity, so we hauled out the kiddie pool for some fun for the girls and a few friends. They love to slide right into the water! Anna was constantly yelling "watch this!" as she slid down & splashed into the pool.
Anna loves to help Roger water the plants :-)
Natalie on her razor scooter....usually there is a scooter brigade in the neighborhood.
A little late, but finally managed to post a Chinese New Year photo.
Anna is consistently left-handed (just like her daddy) and loves draw and "write"
Yesterday I bought Anna a LeapFrog Fridge Phonics learning toy (thanks for the idea Debbie L.!) She cannot get enough of it and it is amazing how quickly she is learning to sing the abc song more clearly! Sometimes she takes it off the side of the fridge & puts it on the floor or even on the table. I LOVE to see my girls actually WANT to learn.....it is really a wonderful sight!
And finally, a few more pics from the weekend water adventure.....(and for those of you thinking Anna was sunburned.....NOT! She was just pink-cheeked from the heat.) They are so lucky to just turn the most gorgeous shade of toasty brown....Their pale, freckly mother is so envious of their beautiful complexions.
Oh well.
