Random...

Some random photos from this past week. :)

 Having fun at CBS (Community Bible Study)!!

This girl is creative in her silly ways. :)

The legos in our home don't fight or go to war... they sit and chat at the dinner table. :)

The girls' request... Dim Sum for lunch!!

Oba-chan making a dress for Chloe (biggest sister's doll) with my grandmother's vintage fabric/lace.

Glad she finds joy in pulling out weeds!

Around Here...

Doing a little "science experiment".  The girls love anything with food coloring. 

Playing Bach as background music... to calm us all down. ;)

Trying to see the bright side of washing dishes all day, everyday.  Healthy kids, eating lots of food!

Early morning jog with Big Sister..while everyone else is still asleep...

Drawing.. coloring...and more drawing...(it's serious business for Biggest Sister).

Reading and learning about sea mammals!  We have a little surprise for the girls next week!!

Around Here...

The simplest things that keep the kids entertained and intrigued...

Hot days= Playing with water/ Giving their baby dolls a bath :)

Sweet Bryant came home from work with a bouquet of four pink Ranunculus.. 

and says, "one for each girl that I love." :)

He also brought home this tall cherry blossom branch...and ALL the buds blossomed beautifully!

 Planted many Cosmos seeds in our side yard today...
in hopes to see their faces this spring!!                                             

Random.

Yesterday's message at church was so powerful (we are so blessed that we get to listen to great messages every week)...  The teaching pastor shared one of my favorite verses in the bible:

2 Chronicles 16:9: 

"For the eyes of the Lord range throughout the earth to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to Him." 

I want to do the things that are good in the eyes of the Lord... 

Some random things:

Big sister has been waiting patiently for us to get her a booster chair (since she outgrew her toddler carseat).  We finally got her one last night at Target.  The only one on sale... and it's perfect for her. :)  I've never purchased (and never thought I would purchase) a pink or girly carseat... but this one is pink with flowers and it suits her sweet personality so well.  She was so excited last night she could not fall asleep.  We are so excited for her.. she's such a big girl!  3 years old.. and wanting to be 4... yesterday!

After a year and half of living here... our dining room is starting look more like a dining room thanks to this IKEA rug and a craigslist console/buffet table.  It's fun watching our house turn into a home, one small item at a time. :) 

I love her reading/standing position... She is getting so tall... I'm having to buy her new pajamas every few months..

This is what biggest sister is like most of the time.
