1 Year, 7 Months, 2 Weeks, and 4 Days

Ruby & Charlotte are 1 year, 7 months, 2 weeks, and 4 days old today. Ruby is quite fond of a book called Off We Go that has photographs of kids in various states of play. She has almost memorized the entire book and will repeat it all day long. Charlotte has become attached to carrying large stuffed animals around the house. We went to Ikea over the weekend and she found a cat that she did not want to let go of, even when it came time to pay for it. We bought 2 of them to be fair, but as it turns out, now Charlotte gets 2 cats and Ruby gets none. Enjoy the photos!

Charlotte decided to get dressed up in a tutu, scarf, and hat so she could read a book:

Strawberries are their favorite food right now (though purple grapes are a close second):

Now that spring has officially arrived, Wednesdays are exciting because we get to see the gardeners take care of the landscaping:
