Trader Joe's and School

Hillers and I hit up Trader J's like 2x a week and first stop is always the bakery section... they had chocolate cupcake samples on Tuesday.  Dude.  Hillers stuffed the entire portion in her mouth and then looked at me and said "Please." As in "More, please."  Agreed.  We went back for more.

Below is a pic Jax's teacher sent me of her looking at roly poly bugs on Tuesday w her BFF.  Evidently we share the same attitude toward these disgusting looking bugs.

Jax's class is clearing out the room and below is a pic of us from Jackie's orientation.  Can you believe how Hilly has grown? Jackie too. 

Jax was "feeding" Hilly her yogurt on Tuesday.  There was too much giggling and I knew things were heading South.  But sometimes when everyone is occupied and you get a moment to yourself, you just roll with it and figure you can clean up the mess later.

Jax reading me lots of books..

Hillers is HUGELY into sunglasses these days.  She is a big imitator (sp?) and wears these everywhere.  She wore them to the park yesterday.  Then Jax decided she wanted them and then Hills wanted them even more and as you can imagine, it was a delight.

And below are my girls using their power of imagination.

Yesterday I felt generally too tired and pregnant to snap any pics, which is monumental.  At around 3pm, my entire throat feels like it's covered in acid. I felt like I was having a heart attack and also that I was in labor, but I knew it was just awful indigestion. Dinner is such a chore. And by the time the girls were in bed, I thought I might die of exhaustion.  I should've napped during the day a la first trimester.

Anyway, we were at the park and there was a girl there named Camille who takes gymnastics (she told us).  Later I said to Jax, "That little girl takes gymnastics too."  Jackie said, "Who is her best friend?  My best friend is P."

The other thing she does is name her baby dolls or stuffed animals something nonsensical (she hasn't been on the earth long enough to know what names are common, etc... ) like "Nada" or "Giga" and then ask me, "Is that a cool name?"  Totes, girlfriend.
