Audrey & Abby's New Dresses

OKAY, 2 more down, 1 more to go! Here is a pic of one of Audrey's & Abby's pillowcase dresses I "whipped up" (aka. "slaved over!") yesterday. Believe it or not, these WERE pillowcases! I was kinda "iffy" on the wild brightness of the material, but I think they turned out cute! The twins like them a lot, too. :) (P.S.- No, I don't usually dress them alike, but I found this pair & it seemed SOOOO much easier to get them & the ribbon at once! Besides, all the girls have started wearing each others' clothes already!)

Addison's New Dress

I'm so excited! I just made this dress for Addison today & it turned out SO CUTE! I'm working on some for the rest of the girls, but Addison is here during the day & I had a chance to measure her. It's actually made from a pillowcase I picked up at Goodwill & some ribbon. The whole thing cost less than $5! Addison keeps saying, "It's so friddy (pretty)!"

Cute Li'l Leprechauns!

Happy St. Patrick's Day, everyone, from our 4 li'l leprechauns & a lepre-cat! We love ya!

Family Funny of the Week

(It may help to remember that Audrey has a soft, slow sweet voice...)
Audrey: Momma, can we go to McDonald's for lunch?
Momma: No, Baby, I'm making lunch for you right now.
Audrey: Well, can we go to the circus?
(Where does she come up with this?!)

Outside Fun!

I took this video with my camera while we were outside yesterday. It was so warm, I pulled the car to the end of the driveway, & the girls & I spent the next hour racing down it on the plasma cars. SOOOOO fun!
(Don't adjust your volume-- The video is silent because I didn't take it with the video camera, but my photo camera.)

"Cooking With Abby" & other adventures...

On Monday the 19th, the girls were all out of school, so we had to find plenty of activities to keep the girlies busy! Our first project was baking strawberry muffins for breakfast, closely followed by the making of
a birthday gift: a chocolate house! Then Abby wanted to make cupcakes with her Cupcake Maker, so we turned that into a cooking show (see above picture)! We had so much fun making things and playing games all day long!

Happy 6th Birthday, Audrey & Abby!

WHERE has the time gone?! I KNOW I just delivered these beautiful girls a few months ago! Audrey & Abby turned 6 last Monday, the 19th.

They had their party on the Saturday before, at our house, which was SO FUN for everybody. We even set off a Mentos Rocket outside (thanks, Ro-Ro!). OK, so that was MY favorite part! It was great to see all the friends that came (even the Hooks family drove down to come!) and the ladies are still enjoying all their gifts.

It's hard to believe how far they've come since their tiny 1-pound selves came into this world. Watching Abby play soccer or listening to Audrey spout off a Bible memory verse, and of course, seeing their funny personalities come out & thinking, "Where did she come up with THAT?!" *sigh* Time sure does fly... Can't wait to see what this year will bring!
