How cute!

Lance and chef Quinn were making some pancakes this morning so I thought I'd take some pictures. I also found some more pictures from a week or so ago.

All about Quinn!

You can barely see it, but Quinn got her ears pierced!
See my bling!
Check out my new backpack!


As much as I don't want it to happen, my"baby" is growing up! First, yesterday she recieved her new "big kid" backpack and lunch box we ordered from LL Bean. She thinks it is the coolest thing ever!
Also after many months of asking I finally gave in to her getting her ears pierced yesterday! I even got mine done again with her, hopefully I can keep them this time. She picked out a pink pair of studs and waited patiently. She only cried a second, she said she was scared because it looked like they were shooting her. As soon as she climbed down Reagan got in the chair and said, "I do it!" I didn't get hers done though. Quinn keeps asking me to check if they are still there and is doing great with the cleanings and everything. She really is growing up!

We went bowling!

It sure takes those balls a long time to get down there

Let's try again

Painting a masterpiece
Quinn's art work

Last night we took the girls bowling for the first time. Quinn kicked my butt, but she did have the bumpers on! She had a good time,Reagan mostly enjoyed sitting at the scorers table and clapping for everyone.

This morning I took the girls easel outside and let them paint. Reagan made a huge mess but had fun. Quinn wouldn't let me see until she was finished, her picture is our house with the grass, a sky and stars.

This weekend the is a kids festival downtown so we are going to head to that. Lance has to work Sunday but I may take the kids to the zoo.

We celebrated Reagan's birthday this past weekend with a Thomasthe Train party. The kids had a great time and Reagan recieved a new train table, tracks and tons of trains! We enjoyed Lance's families visit and found our new favorite restaurant!

Since several people have asked I thought I'd post some pictures of the new house. We finally have everything unpacked and where it goes and now we are just cleaning. I don't think the owners ever cleaned this place, but we are giving it a good scrubbing.

We are really excited about being in a house and our new neighborhood. We can't wait for our first visitors tomorrow!
