The dining room will be closed unless it is time to eat.

Last night was the second night in a row that they Internet went down. I think it was left over from the storms. Hopefully tonight we will have no problems.
Joe didn't think the pack'n'play could fit in the middle bathroom in case of a tornado. I even have a place to sit... on the pot on the other side :)
Melody and Bethany woke up in a great mood. They were singing the Winni the pooh song and having fun with their "ada's"



They did a great job at singing head, shoulders, knees and toes.



We were so excited that Grandaddy was coming for a visit. After making his bed, the girls wanted to have some fun on it. Two little monkeys jumping on the bed.



We went to Lowes to run an errand for daddy, we had to pick up flowers since we were there. The girls were none to happy. They looked bored in the cart.

This next picture was taken with the flash because they were playing in the storage room in the dark.

I was down the hall when I heard something rolling across the floor in the office/dining area. The girls found the battery stash and were rolling them all around the room.

Melody could not figure out where she wanted the chair. She pushed it  from one end of the room to the other.

I was in the living room when I heard squeals of laughter coming from the dining room. This is what I walk in on.... hence the reason the door will be closed unless I am with them while it is time to eat.

Bethany is being "gentle" with the flowers. They say they are being gentle when they pat them really hard. They have picked most of the flowers in my garden that is at their level.


Here comes Melody to help.


They can just reach the bottom of the wind chime. They love to grab on and swing it to make noise.


I gave them some beads to play with. They played with them for a long time. They are such girly girls.

The girls don't like the dark

This is coming a day late because of the storms that swept the nation. It didn't hit us too hard, but we did have a power outage and lost Internet until about noon today. The power went out just before I was putting the girls to bed. It scared them! Luckily the flash light was just two doors down and we were in the hallway. I couldn't carry them, and there was going to be no way they would sit in one place while I got the light. I had to walk with them holding onto me screaming the entire way. We ended up staying up a good half hour more since by the time they were clam daddy was getting to his hotel and was going to be able to talk over the web.

The look Bethany has on her face is the one she uses when she can't find something. They forgot that I had moved their chairs to the dining room and were trying to find them.

 Whenever Melody finishes her food first, I let her out and she climbs on my chair. Usually I am still sitting in the chair and she is constantly nudging me in the back.
 They really dig the ice cream shakes. I did buy the no sugar added ice cream so they are not overloaded with sugar mostly fat.

They love to help  me unload the dishes


Yummy foot.

Daily Melody raids my closet and grabs another pair of shoes. She usually just leaves them throughout the house, these she really enjoyed wearing. She walk through the house with them on.

Pressing buttons on the dryer. Note... I did not put the stool there.

The girls were having such fun with this new game. Melody would stick her head in the room, then run back out to the sun room and look in the window to Bethany who was in the living room.



I thought I flipped all these sideways pictures. Anyways. I can't leave anything on any surface any more. I left crackers on the table and they got into them and made a mess. I found crackers all over.



 Melody has about 5 crackers in her hands.
Bethany ran to get a rag to help clean up the mess.

After I cleaned it up with a broom ,she took over.


I found the cord to the keyboard. Melody was under it the whole time I was getting it plugged in. She was my little helper.



Here is Melody throwing a temper because I would not let her climb on the chair to the keyboard.

I gave them the rest of their shake from earlier. I left the room to get one thing and heard "Oh No!"
Yes, they got the shake all up the wall and windows.
