Brooklyn has been inviting strangers to our house. A nice lady at our favorite taco place struck up a conversation with her. Brooklyn was showing her her newly manicured nails and next thing you know she's asking her if she wants to come over...silly girl. But I think I really like that about her, she is definitely a "more the merrier, anyone and everyone welcome, would you like some coffee" kind of girl. I know at this age I am supposed to be encouraging her not to talk to strangers, but that's just not her personality. I have been trying to figure out how I can tell her that there are some bad people out there, because she doesn't know a stranger and everyone she meets is her friend. She invites them over. Party at Brooklyn's place...

Charlotte is such a good baby. She is so smiley and happy almost all the time. She has discovered that she can make really high pitched sounds, and that is her new way of displaying discontent. Everything makes its way to her mouth, and she loves watching her big sister dance and sing. She is ticklish already, and gives those sorda-kinda kisses. She has a much more soft, quiet spirit, Brooklyn has the bubbly, bursting outward kind of spirit. And they are both so beautiful. I can't get enough of them.

My dad and step-mom are getting married tomorrow. They have been together for years and years, and it will be nice to see them get married. I am going to be taking pictures, and I am excited to see what I can do. Wish me luck!

6. take the girls to our local farmers' market, make a salad from organically grown, kansas farm produce, and explain to Brooklyn what that means
7. sing on a stage, somewhere
8. make a cherry pie, from scratch
9. sew aprons, matching ones, for me and the girls :o)

I hope you all have a lovely weekend. We are off to T-ball practice!
