And we are back....

I am still having a little trouble with uploading pictures but I think it's blogger issues now. Thank you Kathy Lane ... clearing my cache and restarting my computer was just what I needed!!!
We have been having fun as usual here at Casa Marbut..... fun with some ridiculousness thrown in just to keep things interesting. Jon had his jeep broken into at work last weekend .... they busted out the drivers window to get to the radio, ipod and sunglasses. Of course it would be the week that we had the MOST rain in Sonoma County. Anyway, we got the window fixed and will replace the radio eventually, in all our spare time!!! People like that are just assholes....pardon my potty mouth but they are and there is no way around that!!!
Edie and Ella are loving their time at "school" ... they both wave bye bye when we drop them off and it seems they could care less that we are leaving. Their teacher Ms. Carol is great and they seem to really like her. There are a total of 6 children in the class so they get to interact with other tots. They finger paint, color, hula hoop, play ball, dance...you name it!!! She sends home a little report card every day with everything they did and all their artwork. So sweet!
Ella Grace had her first crazy girl tantrum the other day .... in public!!! We went to Home Depot while we waited for the jeep to be fixed ... since it was so wet/rainy out we thought that would be a good place to let them run around a bit. Well Ella had a ball!!! She ran and ran for about a half hour then we had to leave. She threw her little body down in the parking lot ... right in a water puddle of course. It was awesome!!! Then she did it again when we got home . She needed a nap obviously but it was a taste of what is to come. She is her momma's daughter for sure!!! I bought them raincoats / boots last week and I will post pictures of those later but I have to say ....STINKIN CUTE!!! They both wear the boots ALL. DAY. LONG. They put them on as soon as they get up, wear them for naps if we let them....it's hilarious!!! Now some cuteness to hold you over until later or maybe tomorrow.....I have TONS of pictures to share so I'll have to break it up!!!! Prepare yourselves for too many updates!!!

Here is Edie stylin in her PJ/boot get up....this is part of the reason that I got them rain boots. I remember loving to play outside in the water/mud puddles as a child and I want them to be able to do that too. Just not at the cost of ruining every pair of shoes they own. Which isn't many by the way.

Ella running from ????

Ella Grace definitely picked up her table manners from her daddy....

CHEEEEEEEEEEEEESE!!!!!!

New camera awesomeness !!! Mandarin Oranges.....

I "heart" rain boots and will definitely be buying my first pair this year...for me and the kids! Sorry about the tantrum...it sucks, right? We had our first one in the library...screaming, going limp, hitting...the whole nine!
