Messing Around at Home

Getting into trouble on the counters. They push their stools around to get into things!

Playing dress-up with my gold high heeled shoes (their favorites)

I put Sophie and Evie down for their nap and couldn't find Olivia. She decided she wanted to nap in my bed.

Diaper Obsession

They have a new love... diapers.
They like saying it, fetching them for me, telling me they have poopy in them, and yes... taking them off during sleep-times. I have walked into the room many a morning with buck-naked children standing there with smiles. Yes folks, we have resorted to duct-tape! Tonight however, we checked the girls and Sophie had naked biscuits. Diaper and shorts on the floor, duct-tape in the crib yet.

This was what I found today. You know something is up when the living room suddenly gets quiet.

Yes, they can climb up onto the changing table on their own. They do this quite often throughout the day when they want their diapers changed. Olivia usually pulls a wipe out of the box for me too!

And no, I did not do their hair today. That's why they all look "fuzzy".

In Honor of the Hopkins Twins

If I remember the twins had glasses like this when I was little.






They are a little small, but they were from last summer.

Happy Father's Day Brad!

Amazing Dad and husband? Umm yes!

"In this crazy life, and through these crazy times
It's you, It's you. You make me sing.
You're every line. You're every word. You're everything."
Song: "Everything" by Michael Buble'

This is a photobook I made for Brad. Enjoy. (sorry it's hard to read some of the words)

Roll Call


Okay, It has come to my attention that many of you out there read this blog "religiously." So all of you know what's going on in my life and feel like you talk to me every day! However, it is rather lonely on this end. Many of you never post comments, so I have not talked to you or heard from you in quite some time!

So, I am asking you to post a comment and say "Hi!" You don't have to tell me anything lengthy unless you want to. I would like to know what's going on in your life, but if you rather not post it, then just say "Hi"

Alright, get posting!

The Cottage

Some fun when it wasn't storming...
Snack time with cousin Lilly

The toy tub gets raided

Evie loves her floaty boat

Olivia is not sure - Although she acts like she wants to, she never gets in the boat

Grandma convinces Sophie to get in the boat after two days of fighting it

Great Aunt Diane plays in the water with Olivia

Hi-ho... Off to the Cottage We Go!

I'm off to spend a long weekend at the cottage with the girls. (Brad is going fishing in the UP) Can I just say how much better it is this year with the girls than last year!! They are way more fun! I'm sure I will have some great pictures to post soon. Until then, here are some pictures from last year. Notice my pastey white skin. I didn't get out much back then, okay?
