My poor Miss Pearl is sick again.  She has had a 102 temperature since Saturday morning.  Amber said she was grumpy on Friday and now we know why.  She is pathetic and wants to be held all the time.  We have spent a lot of quality time together the last two nights.  I hope she sleeps tonight.  Malorie is such a trooper and just entertains herself as I hold little Pearl.  Miles on the other hand doesn't take kindly to not getting a lot of attention.  I guess he isn't used to it like Malorie. 

Pearl and Grandma Lori were posing.  Grandma was feeding her chex mix I think and she was loving it.

The girls are taking this family band thing very seriously.  Pearl is in love with her maracas and carries them everywhere.  She is like Bam Bam.  You can always hear her coming now.  It is super cute.  Malorie is really into yelling and likes this echo microphone.  It must taste good also, as it is always being licked. 

Miles bribe for letting me cut his hair was a "present".  I found these crayons I had given him over a year ago in the closet - thank goodness as I didn't know what the present was going to be that I had promised him.  He LOVED them and they keep him quite busy every night so we can get the girls to bed while he is playing in the bathtub.  (Supervised, of course!)

The girls love seeing what he is doing in there.  Oh, I mean Malorie likes seeing what he is doing in there....

Pearl likes to get in the trash and the potty.  She smashed her own fingers in the toilet seat the other day so hopefully that is the end of it. 

Miles built this beautiful bridge out of a yard stick and parked all his cars on it to make a "train".  Pearlzilla came and wrecked it but here it is in all its glory!

Snack time is very entertaining these days as they get very animated as they are eating. 

And Malorie thinks it is fun to eat like a dog. 

Can you tell this is the start of the illness coming?  Pearl; would not let go of her spoon.  If I tried to remove it, she would scream.  I think she carried it for a few hours. 

This is Pearl at about 4pm today.  She was miserable.  The Tylenol wasn't working and she was so tired for not napping.  Miles was having a pants off party today.  He didn't want to wear them, so I didn't fight that fight.
