Bees and Kicks

Sophie loves to sing. She sings all the time in the car. And don't get me started on dancing. She's a dancing queen. She also loves to do the Beehive song. That used to be her favorite finger play and I guess it still is but now she like to do it to me instead of the other way around. She even pauses before she "tickles" me like I used to do to her. Oh and before she started doing it to me, she would do it to herself...tickling and all.

Hannah likes to announce her actions. For example if she kicks something she will shout "kick!" We were playing in the snow today and she would say "step" and step on the snow. Every time she stepped on the snow. And when she would throw a snowball she'd say "throoooow!"

Last weekend we went to the mountains and had a blast:

Daddy and his girls.

Sledding!

Two sisters and a sled. And some nice shades!

Daddy and Sophie on the bunny slope.

Mommy and Hannah watching from the side.

Why should the kids have all the fun?!

Ski Bunny alert!

Group photo!

Classic Hannah. She hasn't figured out how to do a "thumbs up". She points her fingers instead.

Too much cuteness

Last week I let the girls play on their own while I cleaned the kitchen. They were playing so well together... running around, giggling, and sharing toys. Very cute. All of a sudden I hear one of them shout what sounded like "hat!" I peek in and see them hugging each other and giggling. They were saying "hug!" not "hat!" How cute! But wait, it gets better. They start running around and playing again and a minute later Sophie shouts "hug!" They stop what they're doing and hug again. This went on for about 10 minutes with each one stopping and shouting "hug!" I thought I was going to just die of cuteness. (Sigh) Just when they start to make you crazy with whining and fighting they do something cute like this and your forget all about the not so fun stuff.

Here is the kitchen we finally put together. It was their Hanukkah present but they got so many toys that we decided to wait. Since Craig was going out of town for a few days I figured now would be a good time for some distraction.

Does anyone else find it funny that the kitchen comes with a phone? They have a million toy phones with buttons and lights but they loved this cheap plastic one that doesn't do anything. Of course!
