Sleeping Beauty

The noise from pushing the camera button on this picture woke up Gianna, who woke up Isabella, so this is all I got this morning...

Torta di Pasta

Lately I have been making Torta di Pasta (spaghetti pie) for dinner. It's easy and yummy! The girls even love it!

The girls out on the town...

Who would give a baby bunny ears? I won't name names... but what lovely blonde hair the culprit has!

Girly girls...

The girls with their "beach bags"...

My artist

I don't know which of the girls did this, but seriously, is this art or what?!?I know art is subjective, but I see an index finger desperately trying to get away from some sort of danger!

Pizza Night

Mike was wanting homemade pizza for dinner last night. I was all for it because you would get laughed at for asking for organic spinach (or non-organic!) as a pizza topping around here! We also finally used some of the basil we've grown. The pictures are before the pizzas were baked. We'll have to find a recipe for a good pizza crust, the ones we used we're as good as we hoped.

baby birdies

We have a bird nest above our front door that I find disgusting because:

1) there is bird poop all over (that Mike is trying to clean up as I write)

2) they are barn swallows and therefore they swoop at everyone on our front porch (oh wait, I like that - ha ha!)But then I look at this (fuzzy, out-of-focus) picture of a mommy's love! She spends all day going out and getting food to regurgitate back to her babies. That's love! Am I crazy to see Isabella and Gianna in these little baby birds? They're all so sweet and innocent, and dependent on others to be good to them.
