Gymnastics and Haircuts

I signed the girls up for gymnastics class through Capitola Parks and Recs. They are Mommy/Daddy and Me classes, and I signed them up for two separate ones. The Capitola Community Center is right next to a park, so when it's not their turn in the class, they get to play there with a friend or my mom watching them! Anyway, we had our first class this week. It was fun. Apple had a hard time being kind (she just walks up to kids and pushes them. She's not even mad, she just does it), but she had fun. Rayley is so athletic that she LOVED everything. Anyway, I'm looking forward to the next class. The teacher is GREAT and I liked the other parents I met. One of these weeks I'll try and take pictures.

Today I took the girls to get their haircut. There's a cute place in Soquel called the Toybox that only does kids cuts. The woman did an awesome job. I had her cut Apple's hair about chin length. It's so cute! Ray's hair just needed to be evened out. It was almost like it had been layered or something (I don't think it had), so now it's nice and even and still cute and curly! Anyway, they both did really good. You'd think I would have taken some pictures to put up of their cute new hair, but I don't. Here's some pics from the last few days!

Dancing Queen

Okay, Apple loves to dance and I caught a little on video today! Enjoy!

Fun in the rain!

Well, it rained the other day. The girls looked DARLING in their rain jackets, and they loved playing in the rain. At first, they just stood at the window, pointing out saying "wet" over and over and over. Then, they wanted to go out! So, I let them!

Our "Vacation House"

Well, we've moved to my (Sarah's) parents' property. We are calling it our "vacation house", so that the girls don't get so confused about "home". We tell them we're staying in our vacation house and then we're going to move to our new home. The girls really miss our old home. Every time we get in the car they say "home?". Apple had a sad day today. She kept saying "home" and then crying. I think she really wanted to go home. It was pretty heartbreaking. I can't wait until we can move to the duplex. I think that the girls will be able to feel that Carey and I feel more settled, and hopefully that will make them feel at home. Anyway, here's some cute pictures. The first couple of are when we went "bird watching" on my parents' deck the other day. The other two are from a hat the girls "rescued" from a Goodwill pile!

Moving

We are in the process of moving right now. Unfortunately, the place we are moving to isn't quite ready for us yet, so we are going to my (Sarah's) parents' house to stay in the granny unit for a little bit. So, we've been packing and cleaning. The girls aren't super helpful, but they are really good at coloring the boxes and "helping" me sweep (aka spreading out the pile that I sweep up)! Here's some pictures of moving, and some packing breaks!

Rockstar Babies!

Maybe you didn't know, but our babies are rockstars! Actually, they just really don't like the sun in their eyes. Unfortunately, Rayley's sunglasses are usually on the floor of the car approximately 7 seconds after we put them on her face, and she is the one who FREAKS OUT about the sun in her eyes! Someday she'll get it!

Babies in a basket

Our babies LOVE being in boxes and baskets. Rayley especially likes baskets and Apps loves boxes! The are always so cute when they are sitting in them. Well, really, they're just always so cute!
