Plane Pull

Last weekend, Rob's department participated in the 2010 Plane Pull Fundraiser at O'Hare Airport.  This event raises both money and awareness for the Special Olympics.  It was so neat!  Teams of 20 played tug-of-war with a UPS Airbus A300 aircraft - weighing more than 99 tons!  The girls and I went to cheer on daddy's team.  They had so much fun looking at all the equipment and climbing on the snow plows and firetrucks they had out there.  Cousins Katie & James came out to join us too!

Silly Sketty Night

It was Spaghetti Night yesterday - a favorite at the Krupa house these days.  The girls were in an extra silly mood, so wanted to catch it on video.  Silly girls. 

And yes, I do strip them down for sketty night.

Date Night! [and videos of the munchkins]

Friday night, Rob and I took advantage of the 'date night' perk our daycare offers.  After work we went to a couple different restaurant/bars to have dinner and drinks - just the two of us!  It was so nice being able to have an actual conversation together without reprimanding someone for throwing food, or chasing after a toddler who won't stay put in her booster seat.  We picked up some sleepy little girls afterwards, and decided we might just have to do date night once a month!

And here are some videos from yesterday afternoon. 

They were cracking me up.  I heard them laughing at each other and "arguing" over something, sitting together in the corner.  They were trying to open the filing cabinet with our car keys and sounded like two cackling gremlins.  Ahhh, my kids are strange ones sometimes. 



And here's Livi doing the daddy flip. 

We learned this move at My Gym last weekend. 

Little Gym

We took the girls to a place called My Gym last weekend.  Great place to get their energy out, I'll have to remember this when the cold winter rolls around. 

 They had a blast!

Go Bears! and Random Cuteness

Our little Bears fans on game day this past Sunday - rooting on daddy's team for the inaugural game of the 2010-2011 season!

Yay!  Go Bears!



And then just some random cuteness for ya...

Serious and pensive Olivia

And a concerned Caroline?  Who knows. 

Would it kill these kids to SMILE for a picture one of these days????  Shheesh. 

Ok, here are some smiles and giggles.

Our Little Tu-Tutes

This past Saturday morning was a bit overcast and rainy, so we had to figure out inside entertainment.  The girls were ecstatic when I said, "let's play DRESS UP!"  After pulling out ALL of their dresses, shoes and accessories, they decided on the always appropriate tutus, sparkly shoes and necklaces which went so nicely over their pj's.  heehee.  They wouldn't taken them off for a good 3 hours.

A Couple Weekends Ago...

I'm just now getting around to posting these pictures of our visit to Papa Bede's & Mama Diane's house a couple weekends ago.  These girls always enjoy the wide open spaces at their house.  Nice break from our piece of concrete in the city.
