Weekend Update


Patrick ended up working most of the weekend, which means the kids got lots of time with their toys. Afton and Abel love their dress ups, in fact last weekend Patrick built them a dress-up station in their room, and in this shot Afton was a magic fairy and Abel was a not so nice fairy trying to stop her magic. It's so funny to hear Afton cast spells that are realistic and still magical; "Clouds in the sky, go by!" or she'll flick her wand and say "Mom now your shirt is a darker green then before."

Afton has been spending lots of time on her art since Santa delivered the easel. She loves to practice writing in cursive, making self portraits, and this weekend drew all her favorite fruits and vegetables.
Abel got a nice belly shot of me today. I feel much bigger than I look! I'm definitely running out of things to wear though. These tees from Target (not maternity even) have been the best!
