Between the rain drops

Yeah for them. Still trying to get a straight up smiling picture of them together.

Here is Mabel being a big help filling pots with dirt.
Hannah in a nutshell. Proud as a peacock sitting in Mabel chair.
Comfy.
The beginning of out container gardening.
Fun in the water and sand.
They were being so good I didn't want to interrupt them....this is what I found when I finally went in to see what they were up too.

Sisterly love.

Beggining of May

We had the most wonderful visit with Grandma Claire the past week. We got to show her around our little place in New Hampshire....can't wait till she comes again. Apparently I need to take more pictures. Here are two from the week.

Mabel is way into listening to music or books on tape on her CD player with Dad's big ear phones. It's so cute.
Here is Hannah dominating the slide. Up she goes up and down. Sometimes only with one leg forward and the other stuck in back but sometimes with both forward for a perfect slide....she claps for herself when she is at the bottom....also super cute:)

Easter Weekend

We did a quick one nighter at my parents....It was great. It snowed all day Saturday on our drive over but then we woke up Sunday to 50 degrees and sun. The snow had melted overnight and we headed to the Landgrove Town Hall for an Easter Egg Hunt and pancake breakfast.

Cleaning out the eggs of all the Easter Candy.

Fun.
These two have a lot of fun together.
My Hannah smiling. We've had a good six weeks of "pushing" 4 molars through and I feel Hannah is coming around and smiling again. She loves swinging on Opi's swing.

Mabel hiking through the fields above my parents house. We were checking out were the sheep use to live and drink.

Eating and more!

Well after downloading pictures off of my camera I realized most of them were of the girls eating, hence the blog post name. We are well and cruising along here in New Hampshire. The snow is almost all gone except for a few piles here and there.....I imagine they will be gone by the weekend. Bring on the green and warmth!

Lunch on the deck has been a huge hit with the girls.

Snack time on the counter has always been a huge hit at the Casey household.
Snack time while lounging and watching the birds outside. They love this chair and each other!
Breakfast with Dad.....German Giants were on the menu and loved by all.
Yogurt Parfait morning.....load up a "fancy" glass with yogurt, cheerios, bananas and strawberries on the bottom makes for one happy little girl.

Here is Mabel being miss sassy pants and proud of it.

Its been a long while since I had the girls in the kitchen sink for a bath but I wanted to keep it quick and simple, so here you go, the toddler and the girl in the sink. They are getting so big :)

Here is Pat pushing the girls in the 5k race we all did on Sunday. It was a very rainy morning but we all had fun.

After the race.

Hannah won a marigold for being the youngest competitor. She is full on walking now too.

Take a Smiler

That's what Mabel calls taking a picture....so cute and very funny. Here we are taking some smilers! The toddler and the girl.....Hannah and Mabel.

We strolled up to the end of the road where there is a tree covered in ornaments. It is a great destination and I always reward with letting them hold one for a minute or two.

Out for a walk on the road in front of our house and having a dance party too. Hannah swinging her arms and Mabel shaking her butt. Hannah Utah!
It's only getting harded to get a "group" picture with both of them on two feet each!
Hugs.

Playing with on of the many piles of snow left around the yard.

Spring Break 2011

We are just finishing up our first week of Spring Break! Yup we have another week. Lucky us :)

We took a hike up a trail called Rattlesnake....it's short and has an amazing view of Squam Lake. Can't wait to be able to swim in Squam.
Hannah flying with Dad

Mabel's turn :)

First time skiing at Cannon Mountain....she had a great time and so did we.
Dad showing us how to light a fire in the snow.

This on is called "Hannah Walking"! Yup she's figuring it out.

March in Vermont

The girls and I have been at my parents house for some time while Pat is out winter camping with the Junior Class. I haven't talked to Pat in over a week. No news is good news right? We also said if he didn't hear from us and we didn't hear from him all was good. Can't wait to see and talk to him. My Mom has been spoiling me and letting me get out everyday skiing. I have skied all the trails behind my parents house with the dogs....it has been the most amazing skiing and so beautiful weather it is raining, snowing, windy, sunny or whatever mother nature is throwing at us. Today though is a drop dead gorgeous blue bird Vermont March Day. It got cold last night and we have a TON of snow but it is crusted over with a light dusting on it so perfect for walking on. My Dad just got back from Utah and we took the girls for a long walk. sledding around the property. In the middle of the walk Mabel had to pee and had no problem peeing right in the snow.....so cool!
