I know that there are a couple of great-grandparents who look forward to these posts, but we've just been so wrapped up in our busy lives lately that I haven't had the time. Not to mention the FIVE trips to the pediatrician we've made over the past couple of weeks. Also contributing to the problem, both girls love the computer so when I sit down to do something like this, they try to climb in my lap and take over. I'm not going to try to update everything that's happened in the past two months, so I'll just let you know that everyone is healthy now and generally up to their old tricks. I'll try to give some more detailed updates on each of the girls this week.
For now, here's a new picture because I know that's your favorite part:
A couple of weeks ago I bought Rebekah her own cookbook, and she made dinner for us. She made potato skins, and they were really tasty! I did help her, of course, but you would be surprised how much she could do on her own--pretty much everything that didn't involve a sharp knife. When I was shopping for her cookbook, I found a used copy of a Little House on the Prairie cookbook for 49 cents, and I bought it so Annabelle could have her own cookbook, too. We have already baked Laura's maple cakes, which you might remember if you read the Little House books as a child. Now we are planning our Valentine's Day meal, and Rebekah has already picked out a cookie recipe from her book.
