Rainy Day Happenings

Here is a glimpse into our life on a rainy day... This is how we watch a movie on a rainy day..

What is the best thing about having baby sisters you ask? When it's storming outside and we can't go play... Hannah just stays inside and plays "house" with her real live baby dolls! Who tolerate it for a while as Hannah pays a lot of attention to them and is constantly talking to them and pretending with them!
What else can you do on a rainy day? Take the whole clan to Petco where they have carts just Hannah's size (she adores them) and take advantage of the free admission to the "zoo!"

The past two days have been full of thunder, rain, lighting, and cool weather here in Idaho. They have been welcomed by most, as a break from the 100 degree weather we've had for the past two weeks, it's pretty nice!

Above is Hannah vs Walmart display: Obviously the display won!

But nothing a big ole' bandaid in the middle of your face can't fix!

Or being allowed to wear your new backpack before school starts! (That will fix anything!) Hannah is such a big girl and officially starts preschool on August 19th! She will be going to school two days a week for two hours! When did she get so big!?!?!?

Also spent a morning at the dentist getting Hannah's teeth cleaned for the first time. We actually had to convince her to leave as the set up for kids is pretty nice. She was watching the disney channel (we don't have cable at home!) on the tv in the ceiling and wearing headphones to listen to it! Wow has the dentist come a long way for kids! She got a goodie bag and a gold coin to buy a prize before she left! Way to make it fun huh?

Here are our little pink "jailbirds" being the great babies that they are. If we position them to see each other they generally tolerate the bouncers or swings much longer. Separating the girls is not the thing to do if you want peace in the house.... or time to do the dishes. John stayed home with them this morning when I took Hannah to the dentist and ran around 3 or 4 more errands. Came home just in time to witness Brooke vomiting right into John's beard! That made my day and we all had a good laugh as it completely caught John by surprise! Sorry no picture of that because by the time I could stop laughing he had already cleaned up! Trust me it was funny!

Aspen and Brooke have grown so much! Their next appointment is August 12th. I'm excited to hear how much they weigh... not too excited to bring home two babies after they get their shots! Maybe they'll just sleep and we won't tell them that generally after shots they should run a fever, be fussy, not eat, and be miserable.... yep lets go with the "Just sleep" route!
