What happened to my babies???!!!

Mya being a punk. I wanted her to smile, but she had other ideas.

Our beauties. Lately, I've been captivated by  how old they seem to be getting. I can honestly look at them both and no longer see babies of any kind. Mya is definitely a little person. She'll be moving into the two year old room at school and has already tested those waters. I am told she can definitely hold her own with the older crowd, but I guess that is to be expected when she is always with her sister. Claire is pushing her way into competition beyond preschool. Tear. Tear. I know growing up is inevitable, but I'd love it to slow down just a tad. Time is flying even though I am trying desperately to cherish each moment.

Claire completing the entire box of tangrams. I guess I need to find some a bit more challenging.

I downloaded a few educational apps to my Ipod. Claire loves, loves, loves to play them (I am sure Chris is cringing at this idea--he strictly forbids the kids to mess with the Ipod/computers, etc. when he is around. Not me ;) Anyway, it has worked out well. Mya plays the IXL, Claire plays the Ipod and I run. Fun times.  

Claire's "CRAZY" hairdo for celebrating Dr. Seuss week at school.

She's so beautiful. Really. Look at those eyes!

These eyes too. Gorgeous! A fantastic sense of humor to boot!

Mya always pats her babies backs and says "shhhhh." It is the sweetest thing ever. I've been meaning to capture the moment, but never have until this morning.

Claire showing off her Popeye's chicken tender. Yummy!
