Mail, Mommy Time, Pool Time and Colemans

Since I checked the mail late last night the girls did not get to open their package until this morning. They received mail from our Spillane Cousins! It was so cute. Liz had hand stamped, "Little Sister Sophie and Big Sister Simone" on each of their bags. Simone really appreciated seeing her name on her bag and though she was pretty neat. Sophie Wei loved her bag because she likes to pile all of her toys in there.

Below you can see that Simone is so happy about her Dora hair pretty/brush/mirror bag!! She loves Dora and asks us all the time if we can count in Spanish.
Love the way that Sophie Wei ripped into hers!
Simone also loved the hand made card. She is starting to learn how to read and sounds out letters so it was fun when she would recognize a word or her name. She also loved the photo of Zack and Danny on the inside.
The transition at home has its ups and downs. At times Simone finds it hard to share her Mommy but has been doing better. Simone is starving for some "Mommy Time" so I created a special time with her and I while Sophie Wei is down for a nap. We work on one letter, words that start with that letter, a picture that starts with that letter and then work on a shape. I am so thankful that she is into and enjoys doing this. (As you can see our kitchen counter is getting deeper by the day and I have no energy to clean it up, for now.)


After Sophie Wei awoke from her nap we said it would be pool time!!! They took off their clothes so fast and were in the pool before I knew it. I was gathering towells while Rick was outside with them. I love these photos. You can click on them to enlarge them to see their facial expressions. Sophie Wei's diaper inflated, that was so funny. They were loving it.










Coleman's. Sue and Matthew came over for dinner tonight. Sue made us yummy Broccoli Pasta with White Alfredo Sauce that was so yummy, fresh bread and Watermelon. The kids also loved the Chocolate Milk they brought over!!
Simone absolutely loves the fairy wings from Denise and Maggie!!! She uses them almost every day and she looks so cute in them.
