Halloween

Make a Smilebox scrapbook

Here are some Halloween photos. Life is busy these days in the Lennard household. Being a working mom of two is much more difficult than a working mom with one. I don't know what is it, but I am tired ALL THE TIME. There is no relief. But, the girls are tons of fun...when they are not sick. Nikki has her 7th ear infection since mid-August. We are going in for tubes on Monday. Hopefully this will help our weekly trips to the doctor, and help us sleep through the night consistently. She is loving to stand up against things now. I thought she was going to be hopeless on the crawling, but she is finally looking like she might think about trying some day. Hannah adores her sister, but when Nikki gets mobile, and gets her toys the love may change. Hannah is a hoot as always. Good most of the time, but we have our very ornery days sometimes. Her grandma experienced one of those yesterday. She thought Hannah was an angel always...now she got to eperience the obstinance first hand.

Pumpkin Patch

Thos weekend was a beautiful fall weekend. Saturday I took the girls to the zoo and Sunday we went to the pumpkin patch. Nikki spent both days happy as a lark in the baby bjorn carrier (the reason she isn't in many photos). Hannah had a blast. She ran around at the pumpkin patch like a wild woman. We went with my friend Sarah and her family and Hannah loved the other kids. We took a train ride, played in the straw, ate donuts, saw the animals, and picked some pumpkins. She insisted on getting pumpkins she could carry...so we got the minis. Four sizes...a mommy, daddy, Hannah, and Nikki pumpkin. Hannah hated her picture taken, so I couldn't really get her to pose for any. Thanks for inviting us Sarah...we had a blast!!!

Back to the Grind

Well, the dog days of summer are over in the Lennard household. I've gone back to work and harvest is starting to get into full gear on the farm. The kids are back in daycare full time and are adjusting nicely. A few times when I've gone to pick them up in the afternoon Hannah has actually said, "Go back to work Mommy. I want to stay at Jennifer's house." If that doesn't shoot down the ego! I've got a pretty good class this year (knock on wood) so I think the year will be a good one! The girls are just growing up way too fast. Nikki just popped her third tooth, she is sitting up really well now, and FINALLY slept through the night last night! Hannah is just a hoot as always. She seems so grown up already. I'll get some new photos of the girls posted soon. I just haven't had time!

What is this thing?

Welcome to our blog. Our what? Well, I have been inspired by a few friends to start a blog. An easy way for me to keep everyone posted on how we are all doing. I was very good when Hannah was born about emailing photos. These days, I'm not so good. This is an easy way for me to share my girls with all of you. This is one of my favorite photos of Hannah from this spring. She was very intrigued by the potbelly pig at the stable where Aunt Kim keeps her horse. Check out the look on her face! Nikki is getting big - 6 months old now and cute as a button. She has 2 teeth and is starting to sit up on her own now. She LOVES her older sister. She laughs and laughs at Hannah. Hannah is a crack up. She keeps me laughing with things she says all day long. Her latest is that she's all growed up. She's not little anymore, she's all growed up now. She is smart as a whip, and you can't put anything past her. Hard to believe she's only 2!
