Gaga, are you kidding me?

Today we start our big 2 week spring break. The only projects I have planned are cleaning, fun, sun and working out (I am still in the biggest loser at school and I am down 10lbs!!). That was until I realized the tasks Gaga has left....
She expects me to keep two plants of pots, a couple dozen sprout pods and 5 caterpillars alive!! What?! I have the black-thumb! Thank God Liah is on top of things, thank God Gaga shelled out $30 for the girls' watering cans and thank God she lives 5 minutes away now! Chris is calling it "death-watch, spring break edition!" :)

The VISIT!

Last weekend we had a much anticipated visit with the Levi Family! It was a few precious hours. We didn't get a lot of pictures because we spent the time talking and laughing. It was so awesome. It reminds us how important family is and how much we miss those who are in other places! We love you and miss you already!

Sisters, sisters....

Cousins, cousins....

Auntie Moogs!

Manda and her Godparents

The girls were so happy to be with Maddie's Gaga, Gapa and Auntie... now to meet Maddie!

Quality time with Auntie...

Mischief ensues when Auntie is around!

Even Target trips are full of laughs!

Auntie's apartment complete!:

Where in the world are the Goodens?

We haven't blogged for a while. WE'RE BAAACK! We were BUSY, the real kind of busy, not the excuse kind! Here's some of what we have been up to!

Oh what a day...

Mom and Dad were very tired after dealing with us Saturday!
It was the 4 year anniversary of being in our house. Mom and Dad planned to take us shopping and go out to eat. Needless to say, we had other plans!

We were not in the mood to listen, cooperate or please our parents. We tag-teamed them in an afternoon of shame and torture filled with unpleasant yelling, refusal and embarrassment.

We may look sweet, and can be angelic at times, Saturday was not included in one of those times.

Mom and Dad refuse to let us ruin other peoples' dining and shopping experiences, so our trip equaled zero of both.

Instead we traveled back home and took a nice long, cleansing dual timeout!

We promised to work harder in the future.

We promised not to scream.

We promised not to fight.

We promised to listen.

We promised that we understand that Mom and Dad are the bosses!

We all made up and had a fun night.

We made plans for Sunday.

We overheard Mom and Dad talking. They aren't convinced of any of our promises.

They have decided to tag-team us back!

Uh-oh!

A Big Step!

We went to the Y to workout on Thursday evening. We took the girls to the daycare.

While Liah sustained a minor injury....
Maia actually lasted for an hour and a half! This is the first time she made it past 5 mins without it being suggested that she "leave!" YEAH!!!

She is almost 2! What a big girl!

A Day Off

Mom took Monday to get some things done!
We met up with Gaga at the Mart for some shopping.

We were getting the oil changed in our truck (we didn't drive like this!).

We went to McDonalds for lunch.

It was an awesome day!
