Liv and her shoes...

Shoe was her first word. She picks out her own shoes at the store and, for a while, had to wear her shoes to bed and we would have to ever so gently remove them when she fell asleep.

She found an old pair of shoes of ira's... And she is in looooove because she can put them on all herself... She even knows the right feet




In other news, Emerson turned THREE months yesterday!!!






And Ira is a cowgirl- this is her cowgirl pose-



And this is her doing her cowgirl dance

Spring in Arizona

Is beauuuuuutiful
8am and already sandbox weather



We wanted to go on a hike to see some wildflowers.. But jareds busy painting and hiking with three kids under 5 alone sounds like a lot of work. I'd probably end up wearing two and carrying the other:)

So we grabbed our old dog and went on a neighbourhood hike to seek out some wildflowers here....













The following pics are ira's- she said she was going to photograph everything interesting about our meighbourhood so that she will remember it when we move-



























By the end of the walk Jubei the old dog was exhausted....

Time is flying!!!!!

There has been so much! We are STILL prepping the house for sale. It's a slow slow process when one adult has a baby in arms all day with two ACTIVE kids. Poor jared has been up til the wee hours everynight.

We went to the park twice last week. So beautiful out. Ira was so excited to see friends. As was I.

Ira is back into watching her egyptian documentaries. She is fascinated. Cannot get enough information about ancient Egypt. When we were on Denver we visited a Egyptologist docent at the natural history museum- she was shocked at how much my 4 year old knew.... She retains it all so quickly too. Better than I, for sure.

We've also been back to bat watching at night. There seems to be quite a large "nest" in our immediate neighbourhood. Our street fills up with bats at dusk.

Some pics

Liv holding Emers. She is constantly saying, "I hold the baby now"



Ira the snow bird.......
