Livi's sound effects

Lately Liv has been making lots of noises and here I tried to capture her latest...they never want to perform on demand!

Pictures from the weekend

My dad and step-mom came in town this past weekend to get their granddaughter fix. Here are some cute pictures from all the fun we had!

Ready for our afternoon stroller ride.

Sisters!

Here's a video of them trying to figure out who's hands those are!

EDIT to post below....

I DID IN FACT STILL WIN THE STROLLER!!!!!!!

I sent in a very sad email to the woman who was doing the giveaway as a pathetic attempt to explain my misunderstanding and why I missed the deadline.

She just wrote me back and let me know that she in fact also made a mistake in that the deadline was really 11:59PM tonight!!!! So I WON!!!!!!! Yipppeee! Sorry for my disgruntled ramblings on the post below. I'm soooooo excited!

A Valuable Lesson Was Learned Today

ATTENTION TO DETAIL.

So remember I mentioned a couple of posts ago that I entered a giveaway contest for that awesome double stroller?? Guess what - I WON. Out of thousands of entries, mine was randomly chosen. EXCITING, RIGHT?? Well.... Much to my detriment, I misread the post on her blog when she announced the winner and thought that someone else had won, and therefore did not claim my prize by the deadline of this morning of 11am. It was a total error on my part - I failed to follow the details. UGH. I didn't find out my mistake until this afternoon at 3pm.

I seriously almost peed my pants when I finally realized my mistake and was freaking out so much that I broke out in a rash!

I will definitely be teaching my daughters one of life's most valuable lessons - attention to detail.

pumpkin is good, but MESSY

Our new food this week is pumpkin. The girls LOVE it, but made a huge huge mess and had permanent orange stains around their mouths even after their much needed baths. I decided to just let them have fun, go for it, and get it all over themselves.

And this is why Rob and I have to work as a team when feeding them.

Double Stroller Giveaway Contest!

I entered in a Giveaway contest for a super rad double jogging stroller from Bumbleride, which retails for $659! Another mom is featuring this giveaway on her blog, and the winner will be chosen randomly this Friday. I know it's a long shot, but wish me luck!

Ooooohhh...preeeeetttty!

Weekend

Today Grandma & Grandpa Krupa came over to babysit so Rob and I could get some much needed errands done. Thank you Mama Diane and Papa Bede!

Grandma & Livi
Mommy & her girls

Oh, and I tried to capture Caroline's infamous backbend pose. You can't really tell from the picture, but her back is ALL the way off the floor. This girl will not lay flat, she's always squirming and flipping and backbending. It's funny, but not when you're trying to feed her.

And here's our happy girls after they had their peas and rice tonight.
