Elsa Adventures

Elsa is so much fun and having so much fun.  She and I went on our first mother-daughter date outing to see a live play of Dora the Explorer, one of her favorite shows. We dressed up in our green dresses and pearls.

 

It was a double date with her friend and our neighbor Victoria and her mom.

 Elsa is still loving DCC (her preschool) and I love all their outings, like this one to the park.

Elsa got a scooter.  She loves it. I love it when she asks for some scooting time and then goes to the courtyard to scoot around.

Last night Elsa and Daddy did singing time.  She commanded him to stand-up, but he thought on his knees was better. Elsa was wearing one of Liam's outfits (with her skirt)!

No entry would be complete without a picture of the baby brother.  We had fun dressing him up as a pea in a pea pod! 

February Fun with Liam and Elsa

Liam is two months old today!  He continues to get bigger and bigger and is now almost 12 pounds. Time is going by so quickly and he is getting big so fast.

5 weeks

6 weeks

7 weeks

8 weeks

At two and a half, Elsa is really coming into her own.  She creates wonderful worlds for herself, like this "rascal picnic" with all of her stuffed animals.

Elsa wanted to see Goats and Snakes, so we went to the Little Farm in Berkeley.  

She loves to explore with her Daddy.
 

Elsa is now wearing "underwears."  No more diapers for her during the day and so far this week no accidents at school either!

Baby Elsa and Baby Liam look a lot alike, but so do Baby Karna and Baby Arne!  Check us all out:

Tahoe Weekend

Super Bowl weekend we headed up to Tahoe for a Snow Weekend.  Traffic was light and two sleeping kids made for an easy drive. Elsa was tired from her Saturday morning routine of swim lesson and kinder gym. 

It was a beautiful weekend in the mountains. 

Liam was not the greatest sleeper that night, but Elsa slept well.

In the morning we headed out to the hill for sledding and enjoying the snow. 

 

 

Arne and Elsa had a wonderful time sledding.

On the way back down the mountain we stopped in Auburn and visited with Arne's Aunt Shelley and Great Aunt Jean.
