Ballers, Bottles, Bathtubs and Brownies

Evangeline was playing in the little bit of snow we got one night last week.  She came in for a carrot while I was nursing Jed.  A little later she came in to warm up.  The night went along and I forgot to ask her what the carrot was for.  I found her little snowman mound the next day and got a chuckle out of it.  It was even funnier a few days later when the snow had melted and all that was left were the eyes and carrot nose.  
 
Another Disney On Ice with Papa, Karen and the cousins= one pooped out little girl. 

Well, I was checking out a setting on my camera one day and snapped this picture.  I decided to include it because it captures such a part of my life right now.  I spend what seems like (and is) a very large part of my day washing and boiling pump and bottle parts, preparing the parts each morning before school, making it to school only to discover I've forgotten something, left school only to discover I've forgotten parts or milk, finding various places all over the school to pump depending on indoor or outdoor recess....wow, to say this is a chore is an understatement.  The things we do for our children. 
 
This girl really got into the game last Friday!!!  We were all so shocked.  Usually Evangeline does nothing but look cute, just a'skipping around on the court piggy tails flapping in the breeze, but Friday...who was that girl??!!  She was playing some serious defense!  We were SO proud of her!!  She was stealing the ball like crazy and guarding all over the place...offense, defense...she didn't care...guarding, guarding, guarding!  In the car on the way home she said that she really liked stealing the ball, that it was fun. 
 
Here's the official basketball pictures.  What a fun season!
 
Oh my goodness!!!  Can't get enough of this chub in the tub!!!
 
We made some delish, from scratch brownies last week.  Well worth the effort.  Good thing I gave most of them away or I would have been in some serious trouble! 
 
Evangeline is always cracking me up with her vocabulary.  The other day we discovered at bath time that we were out of shampoo.  We had to borrow Kyle's.  Evangeline wanted to see what it smelled like.  She took a whiff and said, "yuck!  I'm into things that smell delightful".
