Time to make some changes...

So, we've given up on catching up and decided to just skip to the present. Tomorrow our baby brother is coming!! We made some changes to include him on the blog (as you can see) and at home.




On Christmas, the girls moved into their princess room- they got their Christmas wish from Santa.





We didn't even know Mommy was going to have a baby yet, but this move combined the play room and the girls' room, leaving an empty room for our brother. Here is his monkey themed nursery set that Mommy sewed.


Our summer was super busy doing things besides getting ready for our brother...

We did a lot of swim lessons. Both girls think they can swim by themselves. Alexis can go pretty far by herself, stopping to take a breath and then putting her face back in.




We played with our friends.


Sammi started ballet. She has been waiting to turn 3 so she could go to ballet class.


Alexis got her tonsils and adenoid removed at the beginning of August. She ended up throwing up for 2 1/2 days after surgery. It was not all the popsicles and ice cream that we all dreamed of. It was a long 10 days of recovery! She's back to her normal self now, without the snoring. Yippee!And to end our summer, we went on our annual Cannon Beach trip. Always fun! Now it's time for our brother to come and for school to start. Both girls start preschool next week. Plenty of fun to come!
