Sailboats...

Katie and Meg were watching cartoons in their "sailboats" this morning.

The pictures don't do it justice...

This afternoon while I prepped dinner, Katie and Meg told me they were going to "make a robot". After about 15 minutes, they excitedly called me to "Come and see our robot!"

Katie

Katie can't wait for it to snow again! She asks multiple times each day, "When is it going to snow?" Today, in addition to requesting snow, she begged to go to the beach! She could not be convinced that it is not an ideal time of year to visit the beach. She wants snow AND the beach. She summed it up well tonight when I overheard her telling Meg, "I like it how I like it."

Happy Thanksgiving!

They are SOOOO ready

Katie and Meg know that after Halloween comes Thanksgiving and next is Christmas. They seem to have forgotten about Thanksgiving and have been very excited for Christmas to come. We agreed to get the tree out and decorate it yesterday. After we got all the ornaments on the re-decorating began. I think every ornament within reach has been moved at least twice now. At one point there were 10-15 on a single branch in the corner (Katie's special place).

First Snow of the Season

The snow started falling yesterday around 4:30, much to the girls' delight. This morning, after a quick breakfast, they headed out to play. And, yes, they are still wearing their pajamas under their coats and boots.
