We spent the day on the 3rd Street Promenade today, and the girls had the opportunity to sing a little over the microphone with one of the street performers. Cara did “Twinkle, twinkle” for an audience, and AJ went about ten letters into the ABCs.
I miss Santa Monica. Such fun!

The girls and I ventured out to El Dorado Park this morning to take pictures for our Christmas cards. Sporting their very sweet Hanna Andersson sweaters, jeans, and matching Ugg boots, they looked very prepared for the fall weather!
I took 49 pictures without getting a single shot of them both looking at the camera [...]

Galinda and Elphaba had a blast on Halloween! Our neighborhood was very quiet, but they had their cousins along for the walk and we enjoyed meeting some of our new neighbors.

I had no idea how to title a post about Cara getting her ears pierced.
I never had any arbitrary age in mind when I thought about allowing ear piercing; my only requirement was that they needed to be the ones to ask for it. Cara has been asking, daily, and after [...]

My little city slickers weren’t entirely sure what to make of it. AJ isn’t much of a walker, so she [...]

Well, we finally did it. We broke down and bought passes to Disneyland. The girls and I were going a little stir-crazy on Tuesday morning, so at 10:00 I said, “What do you think about going to Disneyland today?” Like any other red-blooded American child, they were all over it.
We spent the [...]
