Who needs Emeril . . .

. . .when you've got a Paw Paw and a Pops? Abby has had several cooking lessons with her granddads. They are both fantastic entertainers and keep a smile on this toddler's face. We are lucky to have them!

Yeah! Paper muffin cups!

Stirring is hard work.

A Zeta Fix

A visit from my Zeta pledgesisters was just what I needed after a month of adjusting to life with a toddler and a newborn. We had a great time! It was fun to see our kids all together. Abby followed Betsy everywhere monitoring what toys she played with. We are working on sharing.

The girls were too funny during this photo shoot. Abby was mesmorized by the swords and Betsy was lounging over on the other side of the sofa.

We ate burgers at Kincaid's. The babies hung out in their carriers.

"Hmmm. She seems to be treating Elmo O.K. I'll keep an eye on her though."

We went to Southlake Square for icecream and pics by the fountain.

Stars and Stripes

Fourth of July is different with two little ones, but we had a good long weekend. Nonnie and Pops cooked out several times and we went to Southlake Town Square to see the festivities and eat icecream. Sunday night, Brent and I got the girls ready for bed and and drove across Trophy Club to see fireworks. Caroline fell asleep, but Abby ended up watching the whole show in Brent's lap in the front seat. We rolled down the window to hear the popping. To our surprise, Abby was very interested and not one bit scared. I guess she really has no fear.

Abby likes to give her sister lots of kisses. I had fun dressing the girls up for pictures.

Cooking 101

Abby helped Nonnie make fettuccine the other night.

We think she had the most fun playing with the bowl.

Abby's new thing: coloring

Snoozing Away During the Day. . .

. . and still awake at night. Yes, I am posting this at 5am. Caroline and I have been having one of our pow wows since 4. The one from 1 to 2:30 wasn't enough for her. Tonight we had a serious talk. "O.K. now, you are three weeks old. Let's move on."

"I need to rest up for my midnight party."
