A Crisp and Clear New Year
Filed under: General
Posted by: mommy @ 12:33 pm

Santa got me a new camera, and maybe this will translate to more regular updates on the girls! They are beautiful as ever, and we’re having a great start to the new year.

Little J got her own scooter! Can’t decide yet whether that is a good or bad thing (refer to the last post about stitches). But, she’s delighted to be keeping up with Mad and Soph.

Meanwhile, they are not making it easy for her to catch them!

What a bunch of sillies.

Our friends invited us to overnight at their house on the beach, so off we went to play in the sand. Josie kept calling it “dirt”, as in, “Can I go back to play at the dirt?”

“Better watch out! Dirt is going to fly!”

“Told ya!”

Oops. Josie’s clothes don’t fit that well at the moment. Wardrobe malfunctions happen often. Though, she solves that with the fact that she absolutely loves being naked. But that’s for another post…

Meanwhile, our Maddie just gets longer and longer every time we blink.

Like an elegant bird, dontcha think?

I just don’t know where the time has gone.

When the kids look as long as their shadows…

…or longer…it’s time to let out that large sigh. Thank goodness Josie is small for her age so we’ll still have a midget around!

Please? Will you stay small forever?

“Mom, the crazy cow puppet says no. We just all have to grow up.”

Maddie told me the cow said the same thing to her! Dumb cow.

That’s why we’re training Josie to take care of everyone. My niece Sarah broke it to me that Josie will be in the high school graduating class of…2028. Goodness - I’ll be in a walker by then!!

“Forget about it Mom! I’m hopping up here with the rest of them! Can YOU push?”

Of course. It’s important to know my place in the pecking order here. Happy New Year to all!
