Kara loves diving into beds when she sees them in shops. I think it's time to buy her some girly bed linen! I really like these butterfly ones.

It's been a while since Kara has picked up the camera - here's one of mummy!

I then asked Kara to take one of Sophie, and she did!

We recently bought 2 train sets off of Craig's list - bargain price too. There was this plastic one with "Electric Lionel" (whoever he is); plus the wooden Thomas set below; plus a full collection of Thomas the Train books; etc. (Oddly enough I am engrossed with the Thomas books. I read the first one and thought "this is lame" .... but here I am on page 254 and can't wait to read more about little Percy, James, Gordon, Edward ..... ).


The Thomas set.

Bowling with Uncle Jo Jo (a totally cool idea stolen from Esther, David and Connor). This looks like a spare to me!






I had taken some photos of Kara in my Christening dress when she was young.
Now it was Sophie's turn. She is such an angel!






This is the view of Mt. Rainier from our deck at sunrise ....


... and this is the view we had during dinner tonight, out on our deck.

We bought Kara some new bathers and we couldn't get them off her (or get her away from admiring herself in the mirror).
