Claudia got to play with cousin Ellie all day long last week when Ellie's daycare provider had a sick kid. We had a great time with her. Ellie loved to laugh as Claudia crawled behind her acting like a frog. Izzy wanted to be in a picture too.

Claudia started swimming lessons 2 weeks ago. She is doing such a good job and is in the water without a parent (I love that!). She will swim, kick and do what her teacher asks but then will look up at us to make sure we are watching her. Too cute.

Adam and I joined a local wine club and they have private wine tastings. We went to one the other night and the girls tried a new babysitter, another nice neighbor girl. SOME HOW the girls convinced the babysitter that they could sleep together in Claudia's little toddler bed. This is how we found the girls when we got home.

The snow is almost all gone and the temps have warmed up so the play room is open again. Signs of spring!

After 4.5 years, we no longer have a crib in the house. Claudia got this cute little toddler bed from a friend who was no longer using it. Thanks Barbie! Claudia seems to be enjoying her new bed.

Seamstress Lala posed with the boots and coat she made for Zinni dog. We will have to wait for cold weather next year to really get use out of it. Doesn't zinni look excited about her new gear?
