Wiiiiiiiiiiiii
On Sunday, Gordon's parents stopped by our house and they ended up staying for dinner and dessert and games. We got out the Wii and bowled. It was hilarious!! Turns out - they are quite the competition!!! We had them create their own Mii character so that they can come back and play with us again using their own characters! We had a blast and they totally skunked Gordon!!! Go Mom and Dad!!!

Random Updates
I haven't posted in a while so this is a well desrved UPDATE of what's been going on with us lately. We did move and our house is great!! We are so giddy about every little nook and cranny! It's great to have a home again. We thought it was perfect the way it was, but we've already started a long list of "house projects" that we want to do...someday!! It's going to be fun to paint and decorate and make this really feel like home for us.
Evelyn is master of the domaine. She runs around like she owns the place! She loves her room and everyone elses room too! I am glad that she is not afraid of the dark, because her favorite thing to do here is go in a closet with the lights out and close the door. The bad thing about that is that she can close doors, but she can't open them. One time it took me a while to find where she was...she had gone into my closet and sat down behind a rack of clothes and waited - silently- for me to find her. Since she wasn't crying or yelling for me I had no idea where she was!! When I finally found her, I turned the light on and she jumped up from her hiding spot and yelled "TA-DAAA"! When it gets quiet in the house, you can bet she's in a closet somewhere waiting to be found!
Three months is coming quicker than I expected with Claire. I can't believe she is growing so fast and she gets cuter every day! I pulled out Evelyn's growth charts when she was a baby to compare them with Claire's and Claire is already about 11 lbs at 2 and a half months...Evelyn didn't even hit 10 lbs until she was 3 months old!! Claire is such a good little eater and sleeper. Claire has been building her night time sleep hours and lately she has been going about 9-10 hours of sleep through the night, but last night was 11 hours! I have been blessed with good sleepers!!
Here are some random pictures taken since Christmas - ENJOY!

In Colorado over Christmas break we took some pictures and then our batteries died...but we took some cute ones with the cousins. My grandma got all her Great grandkids a cabbage patch doll for Christmas, so we took a picture of all the kids with their dolls - too funny!
Here are some cute pictures of Claire and Evelyn. Evelyn LOVES her baby sister!!

Home Sweet Home
We are homeowners again! We moved into our house and have been here for a week now. The night that we signed papers we loaded up our bed, Evelyn's crib, the TV and packed some clothes and food for the next day and we got our new house key and we camped out for the first time in our new house! We couldn't wait for the official "move-in" day 3 days later. Evelyn has had no problem whatsoever adjusting to the new place. She runs all over, goes up and down the stairs, plays in her room, plays in my bathroom ... she is loving the new house.
Slowly but surely the boxes are being emptied and I am finding a home for everything we own. It's funny to me though, because I don't know where anything goes!! The kitchen was the first thing to get done and then the girls rooms - thanks to some helping hands!! My girls have more clothes than Oprah!
I have been so swamped that I haven't remembered to take pictures, so I don't have any to post tonight. I will make sure to take some tomorrow and get some pictures posted.
