And WE ARE BACK.

LADIES AND GENTLEMAN. WE HAVE RETURNED TO THE BLOG. Over the past year, I've spent a lot of time posting pics on myspace, because it is easier for me. But, I'm realizing that not everyone has a myspace, and it's much easier to look at pictures and read up on the girls in this format. Aren't you all excited?

So, I suppose it's time to update you on the girls since the last time I posted on here, which was what? January? Sheesh, it's been awhile!

Natalia is now 3 years and 8 months old. She is majorly looking forward to her 4th birthday and is always talking about "when she's 4..." She is a daredevil. She loves rollercoasters and rides of all sorts. She loves to play dress up and pretend she is a princess or a fairy. She loves to jump and she loves your attention. You can usually find her in her room, playing with her little Princess or Dora figurines, acting out some grand adventure, or sitting at the dining room table coloring or drawing. She also loves learning and is actually reading short words already! She loves to dance around the living room with Kira and is slowly learning to become quite a wonderful big sister. However, if you spend anytime with Natalia these days, you will find out what her biggest obsession is. GUMBY. Yes, it's true. One day, I was at the library and I saw a Gumby video that I used to watch when I was a kid. I checked it out, on a whim, and Natalia fell in love. She is constantly talking about Gumby and it seems like her life revolves around him these days.

Kira is 2 years, 1 month old. How fast the time has gone by! Kira is such a joy. She is a cuddly cuddlebug and is always laughing about something. She adores Natalia and tries to be just like her. She is talking well beyond her two years, with clarity, and even more than that she sings all the time. She loves music and dancing. She loves the show Yo Gabba Gabba and she loves Mickey Mouse. Most importantly though, she loves books and reading. You will most often find Kira either right next to Natalia, pretending she is just like her big sister, or you will find her next to the bookcase with the books spread all around her, reading stories to herself.

Here are a couple pictures of the girls that were just taken this week. I am amazed at how different the girls look!
