Happy Lena
Happy Madeline
It is so fun to watch the girls discover things... Maddie above, Lena below.
We have had lots of snow, so we were inside all day. I entertained all of us by taking lots of pictures. Also, Lena rolled over today! She is at the stage where her arm is stuck underneath her, but she will get it figured out soon enough.
This was my kitchen last night as I was trying to make dinner. I don't think anyone was really helping, just making it a little more difficult to maneuver around as I cooked. At least I could keep tabs on everyone though!
The girls are wanting to play with the same toys as they lay on their mat. Lena started crying today when Maddie took the rattle from her. I'm still not sure if that is what caused her to be upset, but I think we are going to need to work on sharing! 
Still working on it...tummy time. They still don't like it, but we still make them do it. It is funny that Madeline is rolling over (now that the grandparents are gone and she has been put down :) ), but she hates being on her belly!
My sister came to visit this weekend. It is amazing how well she handles the girls! I don't think I was that good with them until they had been home for a month! She was playing dress up with Maddie in this photo.
Click on this photo to enlarge it. Maddie rolled over, spit up, then smeared her face around in it. It was hilarious! How many pictures are on the blog that are similar to this?!? 
Max has really taken to the girls. We spend a lot of time on the floor, so I was a little nervous he would trample Lena and Maddie. He has been great with them! Other than wanting to lick them all the time, he has been the perfect puppy (he is big, but only just over a year old). He constantly lays down on the floor next to them when they are playing.
Offering the girls his toy...
Just a relaxing afternoon. They are both putting everything into their mouths. Maddie can't quite figure out how to get that Cookie Monster in there! 
My friend Michelle was in Columbus, so she came by to meet the little ladies. She has the touch!
Daddy givin' Maddie some love.

The girls weren't really sure what to think about him at first, but they seem to think of him as entertainment now! They stare at him with wide eyes, and watch him run around the room. Maddie is checking him out here.
He really loved the snow!
Kicked over...getting close!
Made it...now what do I do with this arm??
Telling Lena about the big event.
"All you have to do is ..."
I don't know that "great" really fits into this posting anywhere, but I just happened to be snapping Maddie's picture when she spit up in the middle of the couch. Gross. Don't worry, mom, we won't make you sleep on that couch when you come to visit. On the bright side, the girls are lifting their heads pretty well when they are on their bellies. Unfortunately, as soon as Maddie spit up she decided to put her head down and turn it from side to side before I could clean up the mess. Stinker.
