Frannie really likes icecream
The sink was leaking...Emily and I tried to fix it...this was like 2am...

There were ladybugs EVERYWHERE!
Frannie & Rourke were running around, the giggles were a treat
Frannie, such a brave girl
Our attempt at a family photo...yeah, it's pretty awesome
Playing the in the little house, what tower!
We went on a "brave adventure." It was rough terrain for these little legs and I carried Esther in the front pack...not the brightest idea ever ;)
Lydia thought this piece of wood was really cool
I took a picture of Esther screaming and me about to freak, just to remember that "brave adventures" with a baby strapped to the front of me is just not a good idea
We MADE it!
Frannie with the columbines, they were blooming everywhere!
too cool!
Lydia
Frannie
Esther was doing some work with Daddy
Nothing like a baby in a sink
And kids in tubs!
