Thank you God! Day 2

Tara- today I am thankful for our three sweet little girls and all of the laughter and giggles they bring to our house! Even on challenging days, they light up this family!

Lillian- hi God. I'm thankful for Eleanor. I like that Eleanor is so sweet and she's so nice!

Eleanor- I want milk. Thank you milk.

Thank you God! Day 1

Tara - today I am thankful for the husband that God has blessed me with and all of his support. I couldnt ask for a better person to walk through life with than him.

Latest Lillian & Elle!

Lillian and Elle are so sweet together! They have such sweet little personalities and get along so well! I love how Lillian copies everything we say and do right now. She loves to sing the Annie song Tomorrow whenever I mention the word Tomorrow, ha ha. She gets so proud of anyone for doing anything, and does her "you did it!" dance and cheer! She is so sweet and happy all the time. Her newest thing is to pick up things around the house and say "I don't like that" or "I like that". Ha ha. Elle is so sweet and so verbal too. She loves to blow kisses and say Muah! She says dog, dada, mama, more, book, ball, please and all done in sign language. Such a sweet happy baby. Unless she is hungry or tired, she pretty much laughs ALL the time. She is so silly and sweet. Love how if we are ignoring her requests for "Moooe?" she gets louder and louder and her voice gets raspier and raspier until we get her what she needs. So blessed to have these girls!
Lillian is saying more and more words as the days go by, and copying almost EVERYTHING we do! It's so funny to see her brush her hair and teeth, wash her face, pretend to put hair product in her hair, and do all sorts of other cute things mama and dada do! She even helps me remember things I forget! We were rushing out the door the other day, and I knew I was forgetting something. I kept asking out loud "what was I supposed to do?" She kept saying di-der, di-der, over and over. I was about to leave, when it hit me. DIAPER! I needed to change her diaper! I said diaper, and she smiled as big as possible, and said it again. She remembered what I had forgotten to do! Ha ha.
I've realized that Lillian copies anything we do now pretty much, so time to start being careful what we say or do! She now loves to blow kisses, wave goodbye and hello, point to numerous body parts, comb her hair (although leaves some work for Mama), brush her teeth (again, with work left), clap, dance with her arms up in the air, make elephant sounds and motions, monkey, cow and dog sounds, and cross her arms across her chest to say she loves something. Such a sweet girl. Her latest is to say "I go" or "I do" anytime she's doing something. Little Miss Independent!
