rain and badgers

Let's face it...the girls aren't going to get any snow days.  

But rain days?  Those are really good, too.

They LOVE it, and LOVE any excuse to wear hoodies (Thanks, Aunt Bren!)

Their thing yesterday was being ducks, "quack-quack-quacking" all the way.

 Then, our very fantastic visitors (and their wives, I'm sure!) hosted Christmas in October...the kids were all five on cloud 9!

Babies for the "babies", 

 wooden pizza, burger, cupcake and cookie sets for the girls (OH MAN)

Boy stuff for Gideon, who is in desperate need for BOY stuff with all these girls!

And then somehow, upon Matt running the bath, Sofie dove in with all her clothes and her new baby.

And would NOT go to sleep until damp baby was safely in her clutches.  

And the MOMENT Lily woke up this morning, all she would talk about was "Uncle Don" and making "Cookie Badgers", which we later realized, was BATCHES.  

SUPER cute to see them both baking away at 6:15 :)
