Changed blog!

We've changed our blog! So, I guess that after you use 1 G of pictures on your blog you get charged $20 a year to be able to keep posting...so...we had to move! Our new blog address is http://tomandmichelle2.blogspot.com/ The only difference in our address is the 2. So...check it out! I put some pics of our Easter adventure.

Easter Eggs and BUbBleS

My Mom (Grandma Ewing) gave the girls their Easter dresses this year. I think they are sooooo cute on them. Thanks Mom:)













Last Sunday we went over to the Stufflebeams for an early Easter dinner, egg hunt and bubbles! Everything was fantastic! Debbie put together 50 eggs and I brought an additional 25 so the girls REALLY had a fun time with the hunt and came away with more eggs than they could dream of. They actually did the hunt 2 times because they loved it so much! Brooklyn was on a hunt to get quantity whereas Kenzie was more for quality. She opened each egg and sampled whatever was in there. Brooklyn filled her little basket 2-3 times and Kenzie just mostly filled it once. It's fun to see their little personalities. Thanks Stufflebeams for a fun afternoon. You are way too good to us. Their son, Scott, also leaves for Alaska tomorrow...good luck Scott. We will miss you!

Happy 21st Britty

My little sister, Laura, "helping" me with the dress. Actually, she helped me a TON. She pretty much told me what to do then I did it on the sewing machine. There is NO WAY I could have done it without her.



This is a picture of the cute back of the dress. I loved the back...the pleats were way cute.
Brittney wanted a pig cake...so I made my best attempt. She loves rainbows, stars, and pigs so I tried to implement all of them into the cake.




Brooklyn's cute birthmom turned 21 last week. We had a birthday party with her to help her celebrate. A week before her party I asked her what she wanted. She replied that she wanted a rainbow sundress. So, I attempted my very 1st dress. With the AMAZING help from my sister, Laura, we did it in about 10 hours. I feel like it was really cute and I hope she liked it! She's pretty special to us. We hope your birthday was a good one Brittney! We love ya!

Look who is SOOOOO BIG!!!

Grandma Hall gave Brooklyn a new bed! I think Tom was just as excited about the bed as Brooklyn was. He set it up within days of getting it. It is a trundle bed and Brooklyn AND Kenzie love it. We were this close to letting them sleep together then we remembered how much we love our own sleep. So, maybe another time. Thanks Grandma! Brooklyn is FINALLY sleeping through the night. We LOVE the new bed!

A day at the park.

There was 1 day last week where the weather was somewhat decent....so we went to the park. The girls are just dying to be outside. This week we are supposed to have high 50's and 60's. wahooooo!

Olives and Grandmas

Grandma Hall has come and gone, but I still have pictures to post with her in them! The girls (and Tom and I!) really enjoyed having Grandma Hall come to visit. We felt like the visit was too short, but very productive. Come back soon Grandma Hall!

Brooklyn is obsessed with olives. When I ask her what she wants for lunch she usually says, "Owives, Mommy". So, we have Hawaiian Haystacks about once a week because Brooklyn gets her olives and it is Tom's favorite food. Win win! She loves to put them on her fingers then when she eats them all she usually gets a refill. I usually go through 1 can before dinner then 1 can for dinner. Kenzie loves them too, but Brooklyn is fanatical with them.

The last picture has Kenzie in it too. She LOVES those shorts. She wants to wear them everyday. They have fish on them and she thinks that is pretty cool. She actually picks out her clothes for the day. Sometimes it works...:)

Potty training is going well. No accidents yesterday! I hope I'm not jinxing things. #2 is still a struggle. They both bring me a diaper to wear when they need to go #2. Any suggestions from you experienced folks?
