Happy Columbus Day!










Because I haven't totally figured out how to post photos and move them to where I want them, I can't put captions under each picture. So here is my photo guide:

Photo 1 (top): Watching a Baby Einstein
Elise and Linnaea just LOVE their Baby Einstein videos, so I put one in to get some work done in the morning. Elise is obsessed with taking her clothes off, but she usually only gets the left arm out as in this photo.

Photo 2: Our Little Snork
I've been practicing putting their hair in ponytails because it's getting long and I don't want to keep cutting their bangs. So this is the result. Again, Elise is watching a Baby Einstein video and being a couch potato. Who do you think she takes after?

Photo 3: A Morning at the Park
Elise's favorite thing to do at our little park is to climb inside the bushes and trees. Again, who do you think she takes after?

Photo 4: Stuck in a Drawer
Elise also very much enjoys crawling into small spaces. A favorite is the bottom drawer in our kitchen.

Photo 5: New Shoes
We finally got Linnaea and Elise some shoes with good soles for the winter. Aren't they the cutest? And Linnaea also says Go Gators!

Photos 6, 7, and 8: Arapaho National Wildlife Refuge
The ANWR of Walden, CO. This is a refuge about 10 minutes from our house and it is so cool. These photos are on their interpretive nature trail. The first time I took the girls there, we saw 3 moose REALLY close up. Then we went back a week ago and saw two beaver, which I thought was really neat. Kevin said his photo of the beaver wasn't good enough so unfortunately that photo will not appear on our blog.

looks, so beautiful, we are still sweating in shorts here!

i love the picture of Elise showing off her muscle... if I had biceps like that I wouldn't want sleeves covering them up, either.

if gas prices ever go down and we can afford to come visit we are definately going on that nature walk with you guys!

They certainly get immersed in that TV huh? Good to know that they love Baby Einstein.

Elise’s hairdo is so funny with the straight-up ponytail! Your little punk rocker already.

Those new shoes on Linnaea ARE adorable…and look best without pants. Shows them off better! LOL.

Thanks for the new pics :O)

Abby has those same pink Merrills! Although, after our soot problem they're half black half pink. But they're great shoes anyway! Sorry I haven't called, my mom just left town, we had a great time with her. Abby and I have both been sick too, so it's been an interesting week. I haven't forgotten about web camming!
