friday phone dump 9.9.11

in

I want to regularly post the photos from my phone, and since it's been a few weeks since I've done this, today's mosaic is rather large.

Explanations for a few...
(row, column)
A4: Kate has started to pinch her nose and say, "Ewwww... stinky!"
B1: Caroline spitting up, caught on camera. Gross!!
E4: Kate throws a fit, I grab the camera.
I2: At the gas station this morning; I kept peeking in the window, and Kate just died laughing every time!

I'm reading The Help. I know I'm only two years behind the rest of the country, but I want to go see the movie, and I have to read the book first. Besides, I don't often read "grown up" literature; I stick with children's and YA lit.

Nick and I are new Kindle-lovers. The girls and I got it for him for Father's Day. It's one of those gifts that has benefitted me, too! I like that I can easily hold it and advance "pages" with just one hand. Perfect for when I'm trying to give Caroline her bottle, too. So nice of Nick to share!

{craft night!}
Tonight I went over to my friend Sara's house for a Lens Baby moms' craft night. She had many tutorials prepared for us on how to make different felt flowers and buntings (cute props for photo shoots). I attempted these two headbands for the girls, and I'm pleased with how well they turned out!
I really enjoyed an evening with my LB friends.

{paci emergency}
Kate just has one main paci that stays in her crib, but I also keep one back-up paci in her bag in case of emergency. Well, a bonked head followed by a bonked (and bleeding) lip followed by throwing up after choke-crying (and all past her bedtime)?? That qualified as a back-up paci emergency! You can see that it did the trick. Poor girl!

Sharing the pics off my phone since Caroline came along... 

first moments holding Caroline

Nick's mom (Nana) texted this one to us of Kate playing in the backyard while we were still in the hospital.

(We kept feeding her snacks to keep her occupied!)
Caroline's ride home from the hospital
Those are some serious cheeks! They jiggled the whole way home!


Kate loves to read in her old ducky bath tub
 
already holding her own bottle... so talented! 
SO relaxed!

Kate reading a book - Here she's saying "cat" and pointing to it.
Kate pointing out Caroline's eyes, nose, etc. She got hold of Caroline's ear here. I had to throw down the phone to break it up! Caroline didn't even notice. :)
