A break in the day

It's a tea party, homeschool kinda day.

Hannah and Riley, the last month

We got Hannah a "A Frog Prince" for Valentines Day.  It was a small plastic conainer that held a frog.  You put water in the container and watched the frog transform into a prince.  

This is where we were about an hour into the transformation.  The complete change took about 3 days.  From here, he really just got bigger.  

Here's Riley, pounding on her keyboard.  

Here's Hannah (not pictured) with her kids.  They're on the bus, going on a field trip.  

Hannah's necklace she fashioned out of Riley's toys.  

I left Riley home with David so I could go work out.  Here's what I came home to:

Hannah's new tag toy.  It came with a small map of the solar system.  It's really neat!

This side has a solar system board game, the other side is her map.  

Catch Up on the Life and TImes of Hannah Banana

I've had some issues with the computer program on my Mac, and I haven't been able to load any pictures for awhile.  Today, I was finally able to load pictures from the last month or so onto my computer.  Hence playing catch up.

The first three are from a walk/bike ride that Hannah, Rossi and I took a couple of weeks before Thanksgiving.  I'm not sure I'll be doing that again anytime soon!  Rossi still needs some training on a leash and Hannah needs help steering, which equaled a lot of work for me!  

She was so happy and proud of herself for pedaling all on her own!

One of the few moments I had them both going at the same time. 

Playing dress up, which is a pretty common occurrence in our household.  

The castle she built recently.  She's begun to really enjoy playing with her blocks.  

My Big Girl

Seriously, what have I gotten myself into?  How did I give birth to this girl of all girls?  She likes shoes, and purses, makeup, lotion, perfume, and she likes to check herself out in the mirror.  She likes to mother, and cook.  She likes feather boas, her dancing shoes and dancing dress.  And she likes to dance.  Although, she has her contemplative side.  She also loves to read.  Sometimes David and I will find her sitting in her room, reading.  Other times, she wants to read to us and other times she wants us to read to her.  Here is Hannah and mommies make-up.  She's surprisingly careful about her application.
