a few random updates from last week at home…

Francie says "Safety First...and Second!" One day Francie wore this to the park with Emmy. Yup- her helmet AND life jacket. Just in case she felt the need to ride her bike through the creek I guess?!

and Maisie was inspired to wear her "goggles" too. Is it bad I was happy Emmy was the one taking them to the park that day?! She said she got some great looks from the other moms:) Just kidding- I love my quirky girls!

Good work France. Making your father and grandfather very proud.

Uh-oh. BIG uh-oh. Jannie has been working on these cute knit vests for the girls and when I was gone last week she had Francie wear her's home one day. Then Jannie called me and said "can you bring Francie's vest back over? I need to see the size- oh and don't ever put them through the wash." Uhhhh… everything in our house goes off the body and (hopefully skips the floor) down the laundry shoot to the wash! and sure enough… that's Francie's on the right next to Maisie's "felted" after a hot water bath! SORRY Jannie!!!

Maisie's new favorite lounge spot- the swing Janie doesn't love like I thought she would :)

Janie got a mani! I went for a mani-pedi with Christian and the girls commented on how Janie's baby nails were too long- I tried ot cut them last week and cut her little thumb so I'd been putting it off. They offered with a brand new/sterile pair of cuticle clippers so we distracted her and got them cut nice and short :)

"They are way better than you are at that Mom"

and I'm still plugging away at the Bumble opening and all the details involved in running a restaurant. We had a few more tastings with potential chefs and some delicious ideas for the menu

and our awesome contractor Rich Cody of Cody-Brock and his team are hard at work getting the build out done!! Still lots to do but we see major progress every day and are hoping we'll have the construction done in 6 weeks or so!!!
