January fun

Despite some runny noses and coughs, we have been super busy as usual.  

The last if the Christmas gifts arrived from Uncle Terence.  Zoey got a hello kitty purse.

She likes to pick her own clothes.  Uncle Terence gave this shirt to Sam when she turned 2.  Zoey also knows Spiderman.  She can almost say it, but it is a bit off.  She ended up with this crazy sock, skirt, t-shirt combo all on her own.

Sam got a wonder woman outfit from Uncle Terence.  She loves it.  We had to watch a clip for her to see how to act.

 Sam got this school set from some friends in Texas.  She loves trying to teach Zoey, but Zoey still counts 3-4-5-6-8-9-12-13.

After her bath, she had such silly hair.

And the next day a piece stuck up like Cindy Lou Who.

 We went to a park and she face planted in the mud off the slide.  I did not see it happen because I was on the going up side and she came over saying "Mama, fell down".  Such a tough cookie.  I, of course, snapped a picture on my phone before cleaning her up.

My parents and we Southern Kellings went to the bay to see the manatees.  We did not get great view for pictures, but you can see a little bit here.  A nose and then part of a back.

Sam liked taking pictures with the statues.

And on a bench.

They both sat down, but Zoey was not still long.

A manatee named Elsie.

The girls as manatees.

Zoey and her silly walk.

After the manatees we stopped at the mall to eat at the food court, ride the carousel and run in a few stores.  I got a few pictures with my phone.

And Nick got a few from the ground with the camera.

We made fluffy stuff, which is 2 boxes corn starch and 1 can shaving cream.  It is similar to cloud dough.  The girls loved it.

I took Zoey's clothes off, so Sam wanted to strip down too.

Zoey was hesitant at first about getting dirty, but finally dove in.

And we met some friends at a park for a picnic recently.  Such fun.

Next up with be Sam's birthday party and tomorrow my baby turns 5.  Yikes!  How time flies.
