New Snow Activity: Gummy Snow Pops

Leia's Kitty Mural: Age 11

When we moved into this house, Leia always wanted a purple kitty room. The kitty mural on the left in this picture is the cat she drew to make this a purple kitty room. That was at age 6. Here is a link to that day:  http://leiaandannie.blogspot.com/search?q=purple+kitty+room  Now Leia has added another! This one is done with pastels! So proud of Leia! And thank you auntie April for the pastels!

Annie's Bunny Mural: Age 7

After finishing preschool at Mountain Sun, Annie did two amazing Mandala compilations at 5 years old. Those have been hanging on her walls ever since (one of them she would take of the wall to avidly snuggle with). Now she has added a mural of a beautiful bunny with a birdie on its back and a baby bunny, too! All done in pastels! All done with rainbows! I love you Annie! So proud!

Riding at Etowah Park

After learning to ride, we headed over to Etowah park to ride some more. What I love about these two pictures is that Leia learned to ride on the hill on the grassy hill in the background! Both girls, both riders.

Annie Learns to Ride a Two-Wheeler

Today Anne got on her bike and rode! What I love the most is that Annie is sticking her tongue out a little bit because she's concentrating so hard. She did the same thing when she learned to walk and when she learned to crawl and when she learned to do absolutely anything that took any concentration. I love Annie's sweet little tongue! The irony is, it was like pulling teeth to get her on for the last couple of weeks. Turns out she could do it automatically! Both my children have been the same! Both of them have just gotten a bike and written! Hooray for Annie!

Both Girls Sharing in Sacristan Duty
