Last month, I finished the girls' art wall, just in time to move! Oh well, it'll be ready to go up in our new place. I'm (mostly) happy with how everything came together. One thing I'd like to change is I'd like to replace the "Que Sara/Rainbow" print with a Temple print from Sarah Jane Studios. And maybe put up some beach photos... I also think that the big photo of Greta needs to be more vibrant like the one of Holly, even though I really like that photo of her at her first birthday party. I love looking at this wall when I'm cuddling with my girls at night. Holly likes to point out family members in the photographs.

The bunny garland has since been destroyed. Of course. 

I took these photos a month ago when the girls and I were in Hollister. The scenery was just so beautiful, I couldn't help but pull the car over and snap a couple shots.

Greta is a little chatterbox! In the last couple months, her speech has taken off like crazy! She's always been a very good communicator, even before she could speak, but now she's talking so much! Here's her extensive list of 24 words: hi, bye, buh-bye, uh-oh, bottle, bubble, balloon, dadda, momma, Greta (deda), poo-poo, night-night, do-do (as in a lullabye I sing to the girls and they girls sing to their babies), banana, papa, puppy (puppa), ow, wee, wow, please (ees), thank you, boo, no, and hop (bop).

So if this sounds unimpressive to you, two year olds are supposed to have 20 words. Greta is only 16 months old. I'm impressed!

Lake Tenaya in Yosemite is absolutely picture perfect. I loved the crisp view. Honestly, sometimes I can hardly believe how amazing this wonderful world is. The girls loved being outside. Greta wanted to get into that lake so badly! Conor spent a lot of time blocking her from the edges.

On Saturday, we drove into the Yosemite Valley and went on a little hike up to the lower falls. Yosemite is so beautiful despite the freezing rain! I can't wait to visit again!
