Just Call Me Carol Jr.......

The life of a toddler - hard work. I am always following my mom around trying to clean with her. I take after my Grandma C. in liking the house clean and neat.

I love to wash the dishes and try not to spill too much water out of the sink. Cleaning up is the best part of a tea party!

My all-time favorite is having my own wet wipe for cleaning. I like to wash my own face, especially after eating blue icing. I love to wash the tables, toys, windows and tv. Mom complains that I leave streaks, but I am only two. If you need someone to assist you cleaning, just give me a call!

Claire & Sarah's Greatest Hits

Claire is in 'rock star' mode today. We painted her nails alternating shades of pink and silver and she has been singing all day. We thought we would post a little video to share.....




Meanwhile, not to be outdone a video of Sarah singing a collection of Mr. Golden Sun and Abba's Greatest Hits.....




Now you have a soundtrack of my days - never a quiet moment!

Great Wolf Lodge

Last weekend we went on a mini-break to Great Wolf Lodge with our friends the Martins. It is a waterpark hotel and we thought it was awesome! They had a puppet show, storytime, food an arcade and of course lots of swimming!

Here we are posing on the bear - can we have some fudge?

Waterpark!
Mom managed to snap a picture of us together. One of the few moments we stood still.

Sarah loved the kid pool and the little pint sized slides. She would go right under the water without a care.

I went down two giant waterslides - one on a raft with dad and one all by herself with dad waiting at the bottom. This seemed to freak mom out a little, but I told her it was fun.

Trying to catch water - the impossible task.

We had an awesome time and can't wait to go back again soon!

Disney On Ice

Mickey Mouse! Mickey Mouse! Mickey Mouse!
They are in a laser prison and we have to rescue them!

Yesterday was Disney on Ice at Nationwide. We were so excited to go see our Disney pals and eat lots of junk! We met our friend McKenna at the show and we right away eating popcorn.

Sarah was ready to assume the position - thumb in mouth and play with mom's hair.

There was the jungle book characters, the Incredibles, pirates and ghosts. Of course, I wasn't scared of anything!

We rescued Mickey Mouse and Minnie and all our friends.

Good times had by all - can we have some more popcorn??

I'm a big(er) girl now.

Even though I'm only two.
Last week I learned something new.

I climbed out of my crib at nap time one day.
Cause I didn't want to sleep. I wanted to play!

This worried mom and dad I think.
I don't know why they raised a stink.

They're the ones who paid for gymnastics.
I can't help it if I'm just fantastic.

Also, Claire had a big bed before I came to be.
And she say's I'm big enough now see...

So off to IKEA we went.
A full day of shopping we spent.

Loaded up the minivan with boxes did we.
A big girl bed for me!!

Claire helped put it together.
I think she doest like to hammer.

I couldn't wait to try my new bed out.
Even though it does make mommy pout.

There's no more baby crib you see.
But that's just fine by me!

Happy Valentine's Day!!

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!

Mom decided to try a little photo shoot at home so we could wear our fancy dresses. Here are some of our favorite pictures - enjoy!

Sending you all lots of hugs and kisses!
Claire & Sarah

Friends and Flowers!

We were all craving a little spring so today we met up with our friends Jonas and Lily at the Conservatory.

We had to feed the fish!

It was so nice to run around without a coat and breathe some humid air! It did activate Mom's travel bug though!

Look we match! It was unintentional, Claire dressed herself while I dressed Sarah.

This was Sarah's first outing without the backup of a stroller. She usually would much rather ride and suck her thumb than walk, but I guess we are all craving a little spring. Today she was happy to follow Claire's lead.

If you have any doubt's about what Mom would like for Valentine's - she said this would be a good hint. We had a great time with our friends - see you all again soon!
