another rainy day

another rainy day. we are afloat. the flooding is not near us, luckily. the rain has made our grass green again, and filled up our little creek.

the girls are napping right now, and i'm trying to catch up on some stuff. (well, one of them is napping...the other is singing)

ruby played with "bear bear" (her best friend) at the neighbors house early this afternoon, and came home smelling of sugar and acting a little sassy.

she had a great morning at home drawing on her feet. i was upstairs getting dressed, and thought it was too quiet downstairs. i was right. it cracked me up.

frances is such a dream! we deserve her, after ruby. no offense at ruby, but she was and still is a tough sleeper. always resisting it. i lay frances in her crib this afternoon, and she talked to, laughed at and smiled at the ceiling fan before falling asleep ON HER OWN. ah, we SO deserve her. my tiny baby is 8 weeks old as of 4 this morning.
