The girls missed their sports games today due to rehearsal, so no soccer or baseball, sadly. There is only one more week of both sports, and hopefully they won't miss the whole games next weekend. Nutcracker really edges out everything else in life! Tomorrow the girls will go to an early Sunday School class (8:30 – UGH – instead of 10:45) because they have missed so much class so far thanks to… rehearsal.

Today while the girls were at ballet, N and I did some raking outside – I raked and he pushed his mower up and down the sidewalk. SO CUTE. He's also very attached to his bear. He went with Daddy and the girls to the video store today and carried the bear in his arms the whole way (while Daddy carried N the whole way). Here is N eating with his bear today:

Tonight Abby is here for a sleepover. Here's what the girls have done so far:

• Finish dinner
• Demonstrate ballet and gymnastics
• Rainbow Loom
• Give N a bath
• Play in N's room
• More Rainbow Loom
• Help make Rice Krispie Treat Candy Corns (we didn't have orange dye so they are green and yellow)
• Eat popcorn
• Watch "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" (the Johnny Depp version)

They are still watching the movie (it is 10:03 PM).

Here's a pic – one that we probably have a similar version of from when the girls were 3 or 4!

And here are the Rice Krispie Treats (now almost half gone!):
