Lauren is getting to be a big girl! Out-growing the nature swing quickly!
A mother's work is never done :) Hannah "washing dishes" with her baby on her back.
Hannah at Kaleidoscope--a free art place sponsored by Hallmark, in Crown Center
They have different art supplies each day (mainly leftover Hallmark card/decorating items). This day they had tons of sheets of Tinkerbell stickers! Jackpot! :) She was so excited.
Jammin' to the music in the dancing rooms at Kaleidoscope!
With the Lego man! Legoland is coming to Crown Center soon.
Lauren is wiped out!
Getting to pick out one thing at the candy store. I think this is the biggest thrill about the whole trip to Crown Center. Today's choice...blue cotton candy :)
Hannah and our friends Sara and Sam. Sam picked out the chocolate-covered marshmallows on a stick :)
After a long day, Lauren is glad to be back at home...she loves her Exersaucer!
On a January visit to Feldman's...for some reason, Hannah always requests that I take her picture next to this wood-carved bear :) She loves that place.

Lauren is such a sweetie. She seemed to get most of her crying out during the first three months of life, and now she's all smiles :) She still cries some, but even when she's grumpy she loves for people to smile at her and will usually give you a huge smile in return.



Great Wolf Lodge--In Mid-January, we stayed at Great Wolf Lodge for a mini-vacation with the Drymalski's. It was a great time and the kids were so excited. A waterpark, arcade, candy shop, evening storyime with a dance party afterwards, an overnight in a hotel...what more could a kid want? :)
The Drymalski's stayed at our house the night before we went to Great Wolf Lodge. Hannah was SO excited to have an overnight in her room with Nora and Nate.
Trying to get her to slow down long enough to take a picture at the waterpark...yes, it is still blurry--she is quick!


The arcade...a.k.a. the place where parents (dads!!) spend lots of money to try to get tickets so their kids can get a little toy that would normally cost about 22 cents. But also lots of fun :)

Lauren glowing at the arcade. Ha!

Craft/pottery painting room


"Winding down" at storytime/ice cream time. Notice the outfit complete with ruby slippers, of course :)

Later on at home. This is the outfit that Mark and Mandi got Hannah for her birthday. This is proof that yes, Hannah does wear matching clothes once in awhile! :) Love that girl...she has quite the spunky sense of fashion (see above pic).

Lauren and Hannah having fun together--they are starting to really "play" a lot more and Hannah is very patient with Lauren--they are getting along great so far!

A day at the park--We love having the park right down the road from us. Hannah is getting so much more independent (and brave!) on playground equipment. She is very proud of herself when she masters something new.



Lauren waiting patiently while big sis plays on the playground equipment.

Lauren studying for a test?! This is one that Hannah took of Lauren...Lauren looks like she is concentrating so hard :)
Lauren trying out her Jumperoo!
