Blowing bubbles

Lauren and Ava learning to blow bubbles. 

Spinning fun

What's more fun than being spun around?   Lauren is doing her part in gaining weight.  She is just a few ounces away from 30 pounds so who knows how much longer we will be able to do this.  Although Ava is 1.5 years younger, she weighs just a few pounds less.

P.S.  Those keeping track of her development progress.... Lauren is now 37 inches.

Easter 2014

Easter we hosted at the house with a very simple brunch.  Everyone brought something over so all we had to do were the potatoes and sausages.   We hid the eggs in the front yard and Lauren had an advantage as she practiced egg hunting a few days before at daycare.  Ava and Sophia caught on pretty fast though and at the end all eggs were found and opened.

Thanks tante Grace for our Easter Baskets!

SF..... the rest of the pictures

Goat Farm

One of the outings we took while on our vacation to SF was to Harley Goat Farms in Pescadero.  It was a beautiful spring day since it had just rained the day before.  A fun day of hanging with the goats and sampling goat cheese.

 Five day old baby goats

 Lauren and Kirra amused themselves during the "this is how cheese is made" explanation by taking pictures of themselves.
