So the new header picture is a pretty accurate description of what's been going on around here--a bit of a mess, crazy kids (wearing whatever they choose, of course!), and a generally good time. While I don't totally feel like writing a full on post about what we've been doing, I will give you a whole bunch of pictures to enjoy (since I've finally adjusted to having an iPhone and think I might even know how to use it, kind of), with a little explanation. I'm sorry that I'm putting all of this into one post, I'm sure I'll take a lot of flack for that, but I'm just not in the mood to separate them all right now. So enjoy. :)
First: Breanne has figured out how to use Photobooth on my computer. For those of you who don't know what that is--it's basically what it sounds like. You sit in front of the computer cam, and snap pictures of yourself like you would in a photobooth in the mall. Breanne loves it, and frequently requests that we take pictures. And thus I end up with massive amounts of them, like this:
Also, Breanne continues to love on our cat, Hazel. Fortunately for her, Hazel is still a good natured little kitty, and puts up with quite a bit of abuse, as seen here:
Janey, on the other hand, is more interested in Dad's electronics:
We've enjoyed one visit to the Aquarium up in Sandy already, and will be going back again many times, I'm sure, as the girls loved it. Some favorites:
The Jellyfish (it's the light changing colors, not the fish, don't worry):
Seahorses, Octopus, and other random fishies:
And especially the part where you can pet the fish:
(Don't worry, Janey got to pet plenty of fish too, I just had to hold on to her tightly so she didn't jump in there with 'em, so I didn't get any pics).
Janey's other favorite part was the sharks tank--Breanne liked it too, but Janey was just in awe of the big fish:
And just some random ones in the stroller around the aquarium, and playing in the rocks:
After the aquarium, we went to the mall to eat, and of course Breanne couldn't resist a ride on the carousel (Janey, on the other hand, does not like carousels right now):
Janey came into the living room one day, so so proud of herself for having dumped out all the cookie cutters from the clear bucket they belonged in, and was wearing it as a mask/hat. She was whacking herself in the face and laughing hysterically. I couldn't get over how funny she was being, and it didn't take Breanne long to follow suit. They then took to tapping on each other's faces... crazy funny girls. And yes, Breanne is wearing her swimsuit, and no, we didn't swim that day.
Janey has become quite the little dancer these days, as is seen in this sequence of pictures (yes, she is dancing to Veggie Tales. Can't say I blame her, they've got some pretty good music):
One of my favorite things to do these days is to ask Janey to smile for the camera--she just doesn't quite get it.. and usually the resulting pics look something like these:
And last but not least, it feels like we've been spending a lot of time in the car, and as a result, I've caught a few good pics of the girls:
If you've made it through this whole post, you get one last treat--Stuart saw fit to take a few pictures of himself on my phone back when I first got it--I think he wanted me to post them up here. So here ya go:
