Paije is 2 now!



My baby is 2. She still lets me call her a baby. In fact she likes it. But at the same time she is such a little girl. She is talking so much now. She giggles and calls people silly. Out of the blue she will come up to you and talk in full sentences. She jumps off things and loves to cuddle and feed her baby dolls. Paijey is very stubborn too. Her new phrase is uh-uh- as in no no. I will tell her to put something down and she says UH UH. too cute but annoying too. She also walks around saying HI-YA and kicks or punches. Today she said it just before hitting Jeff with a drum stick. I about died laughing. Her favorite movie is Curious George. She can sing all her bed time songs and just learned the ABC song. Paije also will tell you when she goes poop. Hopefully we are getting closer to potty training. One can hope! Paije can also draw circles and loves to scribble. On the very rare occasion that I let her do arts and craft, cause she is just so messy, her favorite activity is to paint. she will paint the same thing for an hour if you let her. She also tries to tells Knock Knock jokes. She learned those from Keira, who she adores and worships. She wants to be just like her big sister. Everything Keira does so does Paije. Here are Paijey's B-day party pictures.

Family Fun

Sorry its been a while since I posted. We have been really busy. The beginning of November I ended up with croup. That was a lot of fun. It took about a week to get rid of. The steroids they put me on kept me up all night. Thankfully the kids didn't get it.

Jeff and I celebrated our 7th wedding anniversary on the 10th. We were planning to go to a red wine festival that was at one of our local wineries. Our sitter unfortunately got a stomach bug so we had to cancel our plans. Jeff and I were really looking forward to a day with out the girls. So instead we ended up taking the girls to the Seattle Children's Museum. We had a lot of fun. There was a 3 and under area and Keira was sad she couldn't go in with sister. They also had a MR. Potato head exhibit. The girls loved being able to make different potato heads over and over again. Next we went to the little grocery store where they had the kid sized carts and low shelves where the girls could shop like mommy and daddy. Paijey really liked that. Next Keira and daddy went to the hardware store and built a few things while Paije went to the taco stand and made tacos for people. It was really fun. They had a volcano in the middle that you had to "hike" up and under all the rocks there were exhibits of animals. We also let the girls go on a few rides they had at the Seattle center.

Since Jeff had a 4 day weekend we went to Leavenworth WA. Its a cute little town about 2 hours away over the pass. We drove to the top of Steven's pass and there was snow on the ground.. Keira wanted to play in it but we weren't prepared for snow. Lucky for us on the other side of the mountain there was no snow so we didn't have to worry about Keira asking. We did some wine tasting and played at the park. Keira and Paije tried to catch the leaves and they were falling. It was a fun day. we are going to rent a cabin here for a weekend when there is snow.

Keira and Paije got colds this week. Lots of snot everywhere. At least there is no fever. Keira did developed a cough though. The poor thing is on cough meds around the clock to help her out. Jeff will be the next one to get it.

Jeff was in a minor car accident. He rear ended someone. No one was hurt and the other persons car was fine. Jeff's car unfortunately wasn't. It was too expensive for the insurance company to fix. It was a Volvo and the parts and the airbag were just too much i guess. So they totaled the car and paid us out for it. So now Jeff is the proud owner of a 2004 Jeep grand Cherokee. Its really nice.

We are headed to Grace's 4th birthday party today. Keira is very excited. She picked out Gracie's present all by her self. She was asking if she could help Grace blow out the candles on the cake. we told her no but next week at Paije's party she could help Paije.

I will upload the pictures later when the uploader is working.

Halloween Pictures

We had a great time trick or treating. Keira was Princess Aurora and Paije was Uniqua from the Backyardigans. Paijey really liked getting the candy. She would get extra cause she would keep grabbing into peoples candy dish for more. She is so little and cute they would tell her to take as many as she wanted. LOL the girl made out . Keira loved seeing all the other kids in their costumes. Here are the pictures
