Who are these girls?

When I look at old pictures of the girls I can't believe how much my little monkeys have changed in such a short period of time. Sometimes I don't hardly recognize them because when I picture them in my mind it is almost always how they look today. If try to remember what they looked like in the past, I remember their size so much better than I remember their faces. I'll will always be grateful for the invention of cameras. So much of our lives would be lost without them.

Here is a little refresher for our memories.

Little Cuties

Little girls with pigtails are so cute to me. I just love how fun and playful the style is. Needless to say, the monkeys' hair is in pigtails a lot. I'm sure it's pretty obvious, but I'm saying it anyway. Of course it is also a lot easier for them to see when their hair isn't in their eyes. :)

Happy New Year!!

Happy New Year everyone! We had a great New Year's eve and day. The monkeys went to sleep at their usual time so no celebrating for them. Some friends came over to welcome the new year with us. It was so nice to have a spontaneous, fun evening! We need to make nights like that a bigger priority in our lives. It is so easy to get caught up in work and our routines that I think we forget to have unplanned fun.

As you can see, the monkeys think 2010 is off to a great start. Best wishes for a year filled with health and happiness from all of us to all of you!

Whoa Isabella, the bling on your tiara is blinding me!

Okay mommy, here is the required similutaneous smile picture.

We gotta run now! It's time to make 2010 a fun year!
