super martian robot girl


Sweet scene: daddy with his girls getting ready for bed time by reading a book.

The book Five Sweet Strawberries is a favorite here. The last page is when Strawberry Shortcake is harvesting her strawberries and sharing with her "berry best friends" and it's become tradition to "pick" the strawberries and share. That is what Sydney is doing - holding out a strawberry for me.

Haha - not sure if Sydney is loving or hating this love from Big Sis.

Yep, eating on her own is a messy adventure every day. The girls love the Danonino yogurts.

Remember how Sydney loves her helmet? I wasn't kidding. No, she doesn't have a head injury :)

We have beautiful nieces/cousins! This is after the big, annual dance recital. Sydney danced along to the music, mostly the hip hop, jazz, and tap. Seoul is more interested in doing ballet or contemporary.

At bed time Seoul likes to crawl into the crib with Sydney. This was the scene we encountered one night after it had gotten quiet. How do you get mad at that?!

Sydney loves to be a big kid... trying to ride the scooter, bike, or do any other big kid activity. I think she is "growing up" faster than Seoul did in some respects, which makes sense since she has someone to look up to.

We love hanging out as a family and being silly together!

Daddy and the girls resting after church.

Kelley pointed out the girls are wearing matching outfits in 90% of the pictures. Yes, Seoul loves to have their matchy outfits on. I love it also... it's so cute!

Sydney is the daredevil one trying new things much earlier than Seoul.

Baby Toot-Toot is another one of our kids, in case you didn't know...

Stylin' in Seoul's Tangled sunglasses.

The girls love play dates, especially with their friends Grace and Isaac. The girls all played dress-up (while I played trains with Isaac), and then we moved outside to play Duck Duck Goose... a new favorite game. Even Sydney hits people on the head (literally) and says "duck." She hasn't gotten the hang of saying "goose" to choose someone but she does run around.

Seoul has discovered the high bar and enjoys hanging for some reason. Goof!

I love my sweet Sydney girl!

Helping Grandma weed her garden. The girls were SOOO dirty by the end but they had so much fun!


Any kind of carousel is a hit with the girls...

... and Sydney loves to have her own little "car" (which is always what Seoul doesn't want - haha!)

One of Seoul's spontaneous, silly moments at the Lego Store!

The girls and I with sweet Great-Grandma Salway. It's always neat to visit with her because she's such an inspiring and uplifting lady. (Sydney is looking down at her little dog Charlie, a Toy Pomeranian).
