Really?

This picture makes me laugh hysterically.  Anyone who knows my kids, know they DO NOT sleep in the car.  Actually, for the past month....they don't sleep anywhere...not even their crib/bed.  We have had many sleepless nights in the Brodersen household the last few weeks, and I think it's finally caught up with Taya and Teagan.

Now if only Bart and I could just get some sleep!

My Cleaning Crew

Who needs a cleaning lady...

 when I have these three great helpers!

A 1st for Everything

Taya is one who never stops moving.  Spend one day with her, and you'll say, "Does she ever get tired?"  Well, it finally happened...she got worn out!

Ice...Ice...Baby

Who knew a little ice could be so much fun!

Mommy's Big Helper

Life is so busy right now, I need some help.

 Of course, Taya stepped right in.

Double Trouble

Teagan likes to climb into everything....

 just like her big sis!  This is Taya when she was a baby....

and Teagan followed right on with the tradition of climbing in the grocery cart.

Fun Day

When it's in the 60's, we head outdoors!  Taya enjoying a milkshake at the park.

 Both girls getting ready to slide.

 Our monkey #1.

 Both monkey's!

 Taya climbing all the way to the top with daddy.

 Teagan ran all over the park.

 I finally have one girl with her two front teeth...

 I'm just hoping this one doesn't lose any of her two front teeth...or any of her teeth too early like her big sis.

 Loving the slide.

 Going down all by herself.

Chuck E Cheese

Taya got to pick what she wanted to do, and of course...she picked Chuck E Cheese!

 Teagan even got to ride some of the rides.

 Taya was nice enough to let her ride with her on some of the rides.

 Teagan ate LOTS of pizza!

 More rides.

 Taya went through 100 tokens!!!

Teagan is ready to go back!

Teagan's 1st Snowfall

We got snow!

 Well...only a dusting of it.

 But that didn't stop the girls from wanting to go sled riding!

 Teagan did not like it...

Taya...LOVED IT!

 Teagan is definitely my beach baby.

 Taya went again...and again..

 and again!

She had no idea you typically need more snow to go sled riding.

Daddy's Girl

Taya found some of daddy's stuff.

 She told me now she can go to work with him.

Swinging with Daddy

My Funny Girls

Teagan loves to laugh!

 I fed her an oreo...

 and she got more on her face...

 than in her mouth!

 Taya wanted some camera time!

 Taya...the photographer...

showing off her skills. 

Hot Chocolate

Taya made some hot chocolate in school, and of course she wanted to make some at home.

 She wanted to do it all by herself.

 Making sure she has enough chocolate in it.

1st sip.

It's perfect!

10 Months!

I finally got Teagan to the doctor's for her 9 month check...yes I'm only a month late!  In the waiting room, the girls played so nice together.

As everyone tells me, yes Teagan is skinny...just 17 pounds at 10 months!  But she is in the 90% when it comes to her height.

 Big sis telling Teagan not to cry for the shot, as Taya says, "It only hurts a little bit."  This coming from the big sis who screams and screams before she even gets a shot!

Fun with Grammy and Grampy

Over the Christmas break, Bart and I did a lot of playing while Grammy and Grampy watched the girls.  Grampy got out the bouncy house for some fun.

 Of course, Grammy and Grampy took Taya to Marbles for the day.

 They were there from the time it opened, and they actually shut the place down!

 Click on this picture as I love the saying behind the payphone.

Despite them leaving less than a week ago, Taya keeps asking when her Grammy and Grampy are coming back....so am I!!!
