Jiggler-Time!

We did Jigglers today!

DUCKIES!

Lime & Orange mixed!

 Soooo many duckies!

Soooo tasty too!

YUM!

Got SNOW?!?

We did!

 

 And this pic of 'c' is so EXCITING!

Why?

Because last year she would NOT touch the snow...

She just wanted to go back inside...

This year I actually coaxed her in to picking up some snow!!!

And she was HAPPY about it!

Just check out that dusting of "white-stuff" on her mitts!!!

Maybe next year she will actually get IN to it...

 'g2' has NO problem with snow...

She  LOVES IT!!!

She LOVES to lay in it, make snow angels and spend many, many minutes enjoying it!

I say 'minutes' because this is the last picture I snapped today...

'c' was begging to go inside and 'g2' was NOT having anything to do with it!

She wanted to stay outside...and roll, lay and play in the snow...

I was the only one home so I had to bring them both in...

Last year 'g2' was able to stay out in the snow with her older siblings.

Perhaps the next time we get snow there will be someone else home and 'g2' can get MORE snow-time in...

Peanut Butter 'Play-Dough'

This is a favorite for ALL wee ones in this house ...

[Big ones too! Shhhh...]

It all starts with some peanut butter, milk powder and agave syrup...

Mix until you get a not-so-sticky consistency...

 It helps to have a couple of eager and adorable assistants...

 Once you've got it 'right'...

Get out some "decorations"...

Cheerios, pretzels, crannies and mini chocolate chips will do just fine...

[you can use whatever you've got!]

 Now... let them CREATE!

 "Snakes" are nice...

A good way to practice hand-eye coordination skills...

 ...and there's lots of surface to 'decorate' too!

 'Snowmen' are also pretty popular...

 This 'play-dough' keeps in the fridge...

Although with all of the nibbling that happens...

 ...it does eventually disappear!

 That's ok...

this home-made peanut butter 'play-dough' is TOTALLY edible!

An added bonus because, not only does it keep them busy...

It's playtime AND snack-time rolled into one!

Two Moments...

I've got TWO snaps from this week for you...

Here's the first one...

The girlz have decided that they don't need to nap anymore...

Yeah RIGHT!

It makes getting thingz done a little more difficult...

Today... I popped downstairs after lunch to switch over the swishin'...

[swishin' = laundry]

I was only downstairs a few minutes but when I returned back upstairs...

They were BOTH out cold on the couch!

So now... I need to keep BOTH eyes on them after lunch so that this does not happen anymore.

Because now when they do 'accidentally' nap...

they don't go to bed until after 8pm...

NOT so good for me either...

Because I'm still trying to keep up with all of my usual thingz I have to, need to and want to get done during the day....

But I'd like to have something fun to do too!

Needless to say...

the paper-playing has been seriously neglected as of late...

I shall have to find a way to squeeze it ALL in...

I get kinda grumpy when I don't get to play with paper...

Stay tuned to see how successful I am...

I'll take good vibes, well wishes, crossed fingers and prayers to help me in that effort!

;o)

Ok, on to the second snap for the week...

 It is beyond me how most Sundays I am able to get myself presentable and the girlz presentable and STILL have to WAIT for everyone else to be ready to go!

So this is a typical scene as I try to keep them happy and fully clothed ...

Gotta love books!

So, there it is...

Helpers x2!

This is what I get when two almost two-and-a-half-year-olds decide to "help out"...

I forgot to close the door to my room...

's' had deposited a bag of tp in there and he hadn't put it away yet...

The cherubs discovered it, opened it and deposited it where they could reach!

When I walked into my bathroom, I laughed, grabbed my camera and captured the moment.

Thanks for the help girlz!

I'm pretty sure...

...that if I did this...

...took my pants down and danced in the front window...

Somebody would call the police!!!

But with these two...

It's just WAY TOO CUTE!

LOL...

Yes, here is your monthly peek at the girlz...

I figure I can keep up with posting one pic a month...

I really will try for more...

But this way there's no stress!

And YES...

I am aware that I missed January!

I might just surprise you...you'll have to wait and see...

They are growing like weeds....

And if you've seen my garden lately you'd know just how much that's true!

Ugh!

Another thing that NEEDS doing...

Don't get me started...

Anyhow, these two are doing things just because THEY CAN!!!

I'm sure you don't remember being this small...

But once you discover that you can actually UNCOVER yourself...

Well....that's pretty much ALL you want to do!

lol...

Yes, it is funny...

But...when there's TWO of them and all you do all day is run after them and put their clothes back ON...

It gets to be a bit much...

Can't wait for the weather to warm up a bit so I don't have to worry about them being cold!

You'll notice that they have onesies on...

They haven't figured out how to unsnap those...yet...!
Once they do.... they really would be naked and in the window!
They DO know how to take their diapers off!
The onesies keep those ON!
And for that I am very thankful!
So, you don't have to drop 'trou' and boogie...
but IF you do stay AWAY from your windows!
I am not responsible for anything that might result from that!
Just keep that smile on your face and join the babez in a little dance right now...
Come on...
You know you wanna!
Enjoy!
Make it a good day!
