Finally!

The NYS crook, I mean, governor, finally sent us our state income tax return so I was able to replace and upgrade our lost camera. Without further ado here are the pictures of the girls and changes I've made around the house that Mom wanted to see.

Lucy is taking an art class on the weekend and the two younger girls play around in open studio during her class. I cut Julia's bangs this morning.

Isabel painting her masterpiece.

Lucy and Isabel painting. They look identical from the back.

The girls stamping.

My favorite guy.

Today was our first day outside with the bikes. Look at how tall Isabel has gotten lately.

A few shots of Julia playing out on the front porch.

Can you believe how big her blue eyes are?

Our first sign of spring each year are the buds on our weeping pussy willow that Mom helped me plant when we first moved into this house. Spring is officially here. I get so excited when I see these. Winter is finally leaving. Slowly, albeit, but nevertheless.

We finished the girls' room. They love it.

They each have their own chest-of-drawers which is thrilling, especially for Lucy. She decorated the top by herself, and emptied all the drawers after I had transfered her clothes, saying that she had to do it herself because it was HER chest-of-drawers.

And here's a quick shot of the photo gallery that I hung upstairs. We love it. Now if we could just finish painting this room it would be perfect.
