Sisters

What great friends and sisters Sarah Grace and Caroline are. They have bonded quickly. Neither wants to be away from the other for very long. They play together and make each other giggle. Sarah Grace loves teaching Caroline new things and they find plenty of mischief together. Sarah Grace loves saying that Caroline is her "very best friend." It's just how we imagined sisters would be. (They, of course, love to bicker over toys and sitting in Mom's lap)

Sarah Grace will be 3 1/2 next week. She started gymnastics today and seems so grown-up. She currently loves writing letters, watching "Super Why," helping me cook, crafts (in its loosest definition), telling long stories, and making up "knock, knock jokes." She asks everyday if it is almost spring. We are ready.

Here are some of our favorite shots of the girls. The first shot is of the girls at a Bounce House with 2 of their friends. They bounced and jumped for a long time but then all ended up on the bench watch "Ni-hao Kai-Lan" and "Diego."

The second picture is their first Sunday at church. Caroline was not happy to have to stop playing and have a photo shoot but I desperately wanted a picture of them in their dresses so I insisted.

The third picture is the 2 girls enjoying TV together. I had to take this one fast b/c Caroline will only watch TV for about 60 seconds at a time.

The last shot is one of my recent favorite of Sarah Grace.

Home Update

Life at home with 2 little ones is busier than I thought so here is our first blog update from home. They are keeping us on our toes but we are having fun.

Caroline is healthy (except for a runny nose). We went to the cardiologist the day after getting home and found out that the hole in her heart closed on its own. She is a happy girl. She loves to make messes everywhere. She has about 12 words and 6 signs now so communication is getting easier every day. She loves baby dolls and blocks and running. Here are some of our favorite pictures of Caroline. It's hard to get pictures of Caroline because she doesn't slow down very often!
