Ingie and the goat

Donuts

The girls and I made homemade donuts this morning. They were delicious. We may have to do this again. The older two girls bought "maxi" dresses (aka long dresses). Siggie has 10 dollars of birthday money left and she said she was buying one. I sure thought my girls looked pretty this morning for church.

I survived another slumber party!

Astrid had her birthday party last night. What fun they had. They stayed outside the entire time. They played "crack the egg" on the trampoline, "telephone" or "gossip", flashlight tag, and Blairwitch hide and seek. For Blairwitch hide and seek, the hider has a cell phone and calls the house phone periodically and whispers hints as to where they are hiding. Iloved it because they stayed outside. They slept in a tent in the yard but got cold early this morning and came in. Now they are out playing "cops and robbers". There is one little girl here whose mother I know would not approve of her playing "cops and robbers" but oh well.....she has had a smile on her face the whole time.

Happy 10th Birthday Astrid!!!!

Today my baby hit double digits! Hope she has a great day!

We have had an eventful week. Astrid broke her right arm. She cannot stand not being active. It is really bothering her. Then Astrid cut off 10 inches of her hair to donate to St. Jude's. This made Eric very sick.
Siggie turned 5 and today got her kindergarten shots. She was going to be brave. She was very brave on the first two and then the old nurse stuck the third one in the fatty part on the back of her left arm and Siggie screamed that she was burning her and her arm was on fire. After that she went and spent all of her birthday money from Pop and Gigi. I usually make them save some. I said "Siggie do you want to put some in the bank?" She said "Why when I can spend it?" Oh dear!
Ingrid also got her hair cut. She has been wanting "side" bangs and she talked the hair dresser into them. They do look cute.
