Fishing

Elise decided she and Charlotte should go fishing. I love how creative she is!



It's a big one!

Snow Cave

Matt made a snow cave as a scout once and wanted to make one for the girls to play in. So much fun! They loved having an igloo.

Daddy's Girl

Charlotte has always been a daddy's girl. I love watching these two together.

Have a Heart

It snowed! A lot! Perfect for building a snowman with Dad. Vera and I watched from indoors.

Matt is such a fun dad.
Even with the snow being pretty powdery, he made them a great snowman.

Our snowman even had a heart!

Two Things


Elise and Charlotte wanted to wear their Thing 1 and Thing 2 outfits from Halloween and read The Cat in the Hat together.

Couch Crasher


This is what it looks like when your two-year-old, who needs a nap but won't take one, sits still for too long. Late nap on the couch.

Stacks of Happy


Charlotte has always loved books so much. She'll sit for so long and tell herself the stories.

Mixing Colors

Fingerpainting with bedhead and peanut butter on your face. It's good to be two.

Leaf Pile

Charlotte likes to dump out all of the dress up clothes and jump in them and pretend it is a leaf pile. She was doing that, and Vera rolled over nearby, so she started piling the "leaves" on the baby. Vera loved it.

Alphabet Craze

I bought this alphabet puzzle for Christmas for Elise one year and she hardly ever used it, but it is one of Charlotte's favorite things to play with. She is doing great recognizing both uppercase and lowercase letters.

Reading Together

One of my very favorite parts of Elise being an early reader is that she reads to her sisters.

Pigtails and Ballet Shoes

Elise has been working hard doing chores around the house to earn enough money for ballet shoes. I'm happy to say that, at a quarter per chore, she finally earned enough! I'm proud of her hard work and diligence.


This was my first attempt at pigtails on Charlotte.

About to do a joint leapfrog off the stairs.

I love that these two have each other.

Blond Curls

I'm in love with Charlotte's blond, blond curls.


Also, Charlotte snuggles Vera like this a lot, but I never realized what a skilled multitasker she is. Holding hands while sucking her thumb.

Photography by Charlotte

The older girls love it when I let them take pictures with our nice camera. Here is some of Charlotte's work. She's lucky if some part of the person she is photographing is in the shot.

Typing

Charlotte has recently figured out how to type her name on the computer, and she loves to do it. She knows the order of the letters in her name and can recognize them, so it's fun for her to type it.


Sometimes she has typos, but she did this 100% on her own!

Nemo Family


We watch way too much Nemo around here because it's Charlotte's favorite movie. She lined up her Nemo friends and told me which ones represented each member of our family. From left to right: Daddy, Mommy, Elise, Charlotte (of course), and Vera.

Beach Day

Elise and Charlotte wanted to play beach, so they got a blue blanket for the water, toy shells, flip flops, and puddle jumpers, and they had so much fun pretending to swim.

Once There Was a Snowman

So excited for snow!


Once there was a snowman
tall, tall, tall.

In the sun he melted . . .

Fat Rody

One of Charlotte's favorite things to play is feeding her Rody horse. She loves that thing.
