Superbowl III

It’s Superbowl III because it’s our third one with kids, and you all know that’s really where time began.  :)

After church we had a quick bite then put the girls (including Mommy) down for a rest.  Joanna got some alone time in her room, I got a quick nap on the couch, and Natalie slept a long, deep sleep.

Joanna and I decided to walk on over to Uncle Mark’s house and leave Daddy to guard the sleeping Natalie.  Joana rode in the stroller and I walked – we had fun!  And it’s only all of about 3 blocks, maybe – my kind of walk!

Of course I managed to get over there without my camera, so I stole several pics from Allison.  If the picture looks great, it was taken with her camera!  Matt brought mine when he came later with Natalie.  (After her TWO HOUR nap!)

Joanna and cousin Jennifer:

Joanna with Uncle Mark’s glasses:

Joanna and her Uncle Mark.  She has an olive in her mouth, which she deposited in my hand right after this picture.  Ick.

Not a great picture of Natalie, but I wanted to show how she’d shoved an entire Ritz cracker in her mouth.  (Oh the junk food we all ate today!  Yum!)

A little snuggle with Mamma; she loves her grandparents!

Cousins:

My sweet Natalie:

 

Joanna getting squished by her cousin:

I have just fallen in love with Natalie’s little cowlick wispies.  Here’s a pretty good shot thanks to Allie’s camera:

Very blurry, but wanted to show Joanna walking around in Mommy’s shoes:

Then Jenny put on Joanna’s shoes.  Joanna told her they weren’t going to fit, and she was right!

Another example of Natalie crawling around with her hand-shoe on: Natalie is cute; that’s all there is to it.  We’ll just pretend this is a football, eh? Cousin Kurt’s girlfriend Brooke was there (“Like my teacher Brooke?”) and Joanna took quite a liking to her, especially since she let Joanna crawl all over her and sit on her lap and play on her phone and iPod. 

Joanna was very well entertained today!  She loves her cousins!

 

Natalie hasn’t just fallen asleep like this since she was a tiny baby, but sometimes she just curls up on the floor like she could. When it was time for Uncle Mark’s birthday cake (the Superbowl party is always a /birthday party for Uncle Mark!), Joanna ran right over to help blow out the candles.  She practicing for her party in a couple of weeks!
