M has taught J to fake snore... they will both make snoring noises and pretend to sleep. It's tooo cute.

M had water play today at school, it's her favorite. She looks forward to it all week and then when it comes she, according to her my-day note from her teachers, "didn't want to get her hair wet :)"

I bought the girls a big bouncy ball last weekend. They love to sit-on, roll-on, throw and just play with this silly $2.50 thing. It's so funny how the cheapest toys are so loved by the little ones.

J has started to hold up her index finger and say "Be Baa" - translation "I'll be right back", then she'll wander off to another room to get a toy. G does the same thing. I wonder where she got it from :)

My sister gets married in just over a week. The girls are very excited to wear their princess dresses and be in the wedding. I just hope they walk down the isle with no screaming fits... maybe I should be more worried about them spinning around in circles, since that's what they like to do in their dresses.

What else is new... G and I went to the Botanical Gardens a couple weeks ago to see the "Glass in the Garden" Exhibit. It was very cool. I definitely recommend the thurs evening special "Chihuly Lights" exhibit they have going. It's awesome.

I've been very busy the past few days putting together a scrapbook gift for my aunt and uncle's 50th wedding anniversary. I've not done much genealogy stuff, but I was looking into the family tree for the book I made and found out that my mom's aunt died from "complications of rhuematiod arthritis". I don't know exactly what that means, but now I know where I get the RA from. The doctors told me it was hereditary, but I had no idea that anyone else had it. I'm hoping my mom can find out what these "complications" are that she died from. I'd like to avoid that if possible.
