Big Sister at Play

One of Anna's favorite places to go is the beach, reguardless of temperature. With all 6 teeth chatering she will play in the water until Daddy takes her to her towel and Mommy to warm up.
She has no fear, running over piles of slimmy seaweed or "weeweed" as she calls it to chase the waves and charge into the surf as far as she can go. When a big wave comes and knocks her down she pops right back up and say's "Brave!!" and charges off again.

Anna's sand fortress to protect her from the waves soon turned into a pool that she enjoyed far more than any fortress.
First children get all of the coolest new toys, Anna is no exception, but with all the toys the coolest thing in the house is a box that I got at Costco and a stolen baby from Grandma's house.
In an attempt to help Piper sleep, Anna and Kai played sweet melodies on the piano. It was a whole show, Anna played and danced while Kai sang.

Piper Lily races to the family

After 45 minitues of intense all natural labor (free of any pain relieving drugs much to the dismay of Adele) Piper Lili raced into the world at a whopping 8lbs 10oz and 21 inches long. Anna loves "her" new baby and loves to give her tons of hugs, kisses and the famous ananconda squeeze.
My three girls

Piper quickly picked up on dad's baby sitting style, dad sleeps, kids sleep, all is well.
