Watch out UCONN Huskies - here comes Molly!

Molly had her last basketball game today so the whole family piled into the car to go cheer her on. After the game they had a pizza party and award ceremony.

The twins wore matching outfits and cheered for their sister - Ellie cheered very loudly at times. Some would call it a whine but we call it cheering.
Auntie Meg got a very cute new hairstyle but you can't really see it in this picture. She came to cheer Molly on and was so proud of our girl.

Team meeting

Molly makes a great pass - Papa would be proud!

That's Molly pointing to the ringer on the other team - she defended her the entire game. Out of 10 points scored on both sides - Olivia ("The ringer") scored 8! She's good!

She's in position!

Annie kicked off her shoes and made herself at home on the court.

So when my 9 year old son puts his arm around my 7 year old daughter and offers to help her with her shot - I have to take a few pictures. They were so cute!

Big brother watches as Molly takes a shot!

My beautiful, sweaty girl taking a break!

A really creative Mom made basketball cookies!

Annie loved being like a big girl in the cafeteria.

A cute little video of Molly Doll doing the jump shot!

I have no idea why I taped this but I just love Annie's little legs running so fast to get off the court before the kids get to the other end of the court. She is such a happy wonderful kid!

We are still missing Grammy and Papa - especially Annie. She does not understand at all why we can't stop over and see Grammy whenever she wants to - we call incessently but the 2 year old is not getting how far away Florida is - she just wants her Grammy and Papa!

GNM - ILY!

It's all about Grammy and Papa

The babies, in particular, are really missing Grammy and Papa so Lizzie and Annie made some videos to show them how much. Lizzie still doesn't say much but you get her point and Annie says ALOT and constantly! Everytime we help the camera up for Lizzie she thought she was going to be able to see Grammy and Papa so she whined - not a pretty sight but we thought Grammy and Papa would enjoy it nonetheless! Another blog tomorrow after the twins go for their 15 month check up with Dr. Luxemburg!

Another H-W Weekend

Everyone over here is really missing Grammy and Papa so the kids made them a video. It is typical of our family - one kid yelling, one kid screaming, one kid hitting and never a dull moment. What can I say - if they miss us than the video will make the feel like they are right here with us! I also took some cute pictures this week. Time got away from me and I am just now putting them up on the blog! Peter is in one of his "shy" phases and does not want his picture taken so he is virtually absent from the pictures but rest assured - he still lives here and has some fun with us when he is willing!

The girls love the riding pig but they fight over it all of the time - especialy now that Lizie can get on it herself!Annie Bananie loves her tent that Santa brought this Christmas - the babies all get in there and then we just hear giggling for 10 minutes. It is very cute!I love my Annie smiles!Peter and Ellie snuggling on the couch. No one can calm Ellie down like Peter can - this day she sat with him for well over a half hour just watching TV and cuddling her brother. Peter took a psychological test in school (just a random one given to all students in 3rd grade) but apparently in his he talked quite a bit about being a big brother and how much he loved it! Sweet AnnieSilly Annie - I love this one!This is Ellie flinging herself at Mama to be picked up - how cute is that little smile?My favorite outfits on the twins - Positively Perfect! And they are perfect!Silly Lizzie with her popcorn!My beautiful Molly-girl on her way to Basketball! She is a star!Ready to play - she was amazing - she did the jump ball, scored 4 points, got lots of rebounds and had a blast!She is so much fun to watch - look at her dribble!I've said it before but the best thing about Molly is how her worlds collide - this is her doing her promenade step from Irish Step Dancing down the basketball court! Babies in matching outfits - Annie was very uncooperative!My PERFECT babies!The twins in matching outfits!Lizzie's inquisitive look! She just gets more beautiful. She still isn't saying much but I have a feeling once she does start talking it will be very much like Annie - we won't be able to shut her up! I can't wait!Auntie Kake and Kk came over for a visit and the babies could not get enough of them!She looks so grown up and sweet! I love my girl!Glimpses of her teenage years - she looks so old and beautiful - now if only her favorite word weren't STOP!Peter and Lizzie playing with her laptop - too cute!

We had a nice weekend with lots of downtime and some fun family times with Kk, Auntie Meg, Auntie Kake and the Hardings. We are missing Grammy and Papa and can't wait until Papa finds wireless so we can see them on the blog. This week is going to be a long one with lots of stuff going on at work and at home - we'll be posting lots until Grammy and Papa come home for the big sleepover party! Yes, that is what they promised the kids when they left - a big sleepover upon their return! Needless to say the kids can't wait and neither can the parents!

GNM - ILY!
