Next week is Lilly's last week of school and gymnastics. I know she'll be sad eventually butu for now she's okay. Her teachers have asked her if she wants to stay with them and she tells them "No, I am going to Turkey." She and Sadie keep asking where their things are, I think they are done and over the toys and books we kept with us, and we keep telling them that they are on the big blue truck on their way to Turkey. They are so excited that they are getting a new bedroom and they don't know it yet but we bought them feather blankets for their beds. 
Steven and I have been looking all over the place for duvet covers for them but haven't had any luck in over a month. Then I looked at Argos, it's a store that you purchase items in a catalog or online (there aren't any items in their stores either, just catalogs) and they either deliver them or you pick them up at the nearest store. I found some for only 8 pounds and were delivered to the house for free the very next day. I got them this heart pattern because it is reversible so their beds will match but not be exactly the same if they're not feeling think matching. Most of the time they ask to be the same, especially clothes, they love wearing matching outfits. They picked that up themselves! Oh and one of the games they like to play is "Next Patient", they made this up themselves. One of them is the doctor and checks out the other as the patient. When the doctor is done she yells "next patient" and the patient gets up and walks around and comes back as the new patient. The pharmacy at the hospital has two patient windows and usually one is opened and the other is closed except when it's busy. When it gets busy there is one pharmacist that will work the window and yells next patient when the window is empty so the girls now yell next patient all over the hospital. They love to do it the clinic waiting rooms and we can't help but crack up every time they do :-)
Everyday when Steven gets home, this is what happens. Ruby looks around the room for him as he says hello to the Lilly and Sadie, and then he picks up Ruby. She is so content just staring at him and hearing is voice.
It has gotten colder here again so we had to buy Ruby some bigger jackets. She was going a few days of being awake many different times throughout the day and now she is back to her usually sleepy self. I think 5 minutes after this picture she was in her car seat and passed out again. She's so funny when she sleeps, she often smiles and has started laughing in her sleep too! Lilly finished coloring her Peppa Pig picture the other day. And man, do I not like markers. This was the last time they are ever going to use markers that aren't color wonder ones. The marker is everywhere. Lilly 
even decided to paint her finger nails in red marker. Cute, huh? The girl just loves to color and craft. I seriously think she could color all day long if given the chance. Steven and I would like to have some of her artwork framed in Turkey. Some of her creations are just so beautiful and unique that I don't think you would even know it was done by a 3 year old. As soon as life goes back to normal, I'll have to scan some of her things and post them for everyone to see. I don't know who is more proud of her work, me and Steven or her. Oh and one more thing before I go and feed Miss Ruby, Sadie is teething. She is getting one of her top molars and is constantly whining and crying. That's why she looks less than thrilled and happy in the photo with Lilly and Ruby. Hopefully those teeth finish coming through and she perks up because she is driving me nuts!-Kristen
