Toothy

Ben is showing off his teeth.

Batgirl

Dress up still continues to be part of our daily life.  Here she is in one of my favorites so far. It is a combination of her halloween costume, Ben's halloween costume, and of course rain boots to finish it off.

Trains in the Morning

Ben is discovering play.  He is becoming interested in more sophisticated toys these days. Here he is playing trains with Kate.  He was working so hard on getting the trains on the tracks and making them go.  He even has a little sound for cars and trains.

Soccer Girl

Kate started her soccer class last week and LOVES it.  She is so attentive and works so hard during the drills that she actually sweats.  She gets really excited each Friday when I tell her it is soccer day.  She takes water breaks especially seriously.  Ben like soccer because he gets to crawl around and eat other people's snacks.

Walking Man

Ben has shown little interest in walking.  He can get everywhere he wants to go by crawling and climbing.  But today he realized he could push the doll stroller.  He thought this was hilarious.  He walked all around the room laughing.

Seattle Pride

This is Kate's favorite shirt right now.  She loved the space needle and is constantly asking if her shirt is clean.  She wore it to school today and was "a bit disappointed" that nobody noticed her shirt.
Here they are in their Husky jammies.  Kate's is a big shirt from her cousin Nick and every time she puts it on she reminds me that Nick gave it to her.  Ben is wearing his Husky jammies that used to be Kate's.  I have yet to get a good picture of them together.

Pirate Ben

Ben wanted to get in on the pretend pirate play with his sister.  Doesn't he look fierce in his eye patch and jammies?
