Piper's Closet

This is a post that is simply meant to bring me to tears when the girls are older.

How darling are her little footy pajamas!

April Fools!

No joke--Piper smiled at me! I got a dozen pictures, all more blurry than this.

All Fools' Parade

Woodinville's birthday is April 1, and every year, on the Saturday before April Fools' Day, the city hosts a local parade, Bassett hound events, and a food and arts fair. Our family marched (meandered) with our church to advertise our VBS program. Afterwards, we got an elephant ear and watched the rest of the parade go by. Kyla got a Liberty visor to complete her weary countenance. A good, dry time was had by all.

Kyla and friends

We can never lose Teddy or Dolly, because I haven't been able to find replacements for either. Kyla is wearing the robe that better fits Piper, but she got it into her head that she wanted to wear it (Superwoman?) one afternooon.

Hard to tell apart

Same outfit, but Kyla is in the laundry basket, smiling, at 10.5 weeks old. Piper is 5.5 weeks old, and is now growing out of her newborn clothes and into her "big girl" (0-3 month) outfits.

Lionized

A moment to brag about my husband:

Dwayne (with friends) built and poured this stairset in our backyard the first summer we moved here. During his month off after Piper was born, he was able to start the finishing work on it, beginning with the banister. He's always wanted lions on top of columns and, as you can see, he pulled the look off beautifully!

Great-Grandma meets Piper

Denise's dad's mom is the only great-grandparent the girls have, and Grandma is very excited about having a fourth generation. Here she gets to meet Piper (about 5.5 weeks old) for the first time. Kyla is just about to turn 19 months.
