Tobogganing!!

So with the REAL winter weather that we’ve been getting so far it’s been a blast going out for our first exposure to TOBOGGANING!!!

Uhm…ba bah…I know I’ve never done this before, but I don’t think this is how it’s supposed to work??

There we go! Now we’ve got it!

 

Look out below!!! HERE WE COME!!!!

Abby: Now it’s MY turn to ride with jieh-jieh!

Elise: SNOW ANGELS!!!

Abby: Let ME TRY TOO!! Uhm…I don’t know if I’m ready for snow angels yet…

 

Elise: Ahhhh…the BEST PART of going out in the snow…coming back to HOT “CHOC-O-LATE”!

Abby: Ok…I was out in the cold just as long as you were…why don’t I get any??

Abby: Great…a squeeze of my frozen cheeks…that’s what I get instead of Hot Chocolate? I see how being the SECOND child is gonna work in this family!

Elise: Ahhh…we’re finally back home…I can’t WAIT until we go out again!

Abby: ZZzzzzZZzzzzz…..

Sisterly Love

As Elise has gotten older and more knowing, and Abby has become more aware of her surroundings it has been such PURE JOY to witness these two sisters interacting in brand new ways!

Tickling…

Snuggling…

And many times, Elise has become such a good little entertainer for Abby!

And teacher as well!

Elise: Ok…so this is Winnie the Pooh…and…ready for this? *flip* there’s someone HIDING behind that flap!

Abby: Wow…how did you know that?! You’re amazing jieh jieh!

Abby: Jieh jieh…will read more to me please?

Of course…we still have our spats with each other…

But in the end, we always get to make up…

And watch some good ol’ TV together before bedtime!

Elise is always so eager to show off her skills to Abby.

Elise: See Abby…you SHAKE it like this…GOT it??

Abby: Whoaaaa…..how’re you making those noises??

Elise: Now GO…your turn!

Abby: uhm…I don’t get it…

Abby: YEE HAW!!! Now THIS is I get!!

Earrings…for who??? ABBY!!!

Yay! I’m SOOO excited to get my earrings today! Mom and dad took me to the same place that Elise jieh jieh went and SHE didn’t cry at all! This is gonna be GRRRREAT!!!
