The Grandmas see snow!

There really wasn't that much snow last weekend, but to a couple of Californians it was an event. We were supposed to take the grandmas on a walking tour of downtown on Sunday morning, but it was too cold. I also wasn't going to let either grandma fall and break a hip on my watch. We took the car the The Market in Larimer Square instead. This shot cracks me up. Sofi and Little Grandma have the same look on their faces.
We drove around downtown and ended up at REI. My grandma wanted to take some pictures in the snow. Watching her find the perfect spot was very entertaining.
Someone offered to take a pic of all of us.
Right after REI we went to get a snack and then it was off to the airport.

Special Arrangements

Everyone wonders how the 4 of us sleep in our 1 bedroom loft. When they hear about us having guests stay with us, well, we get some strange looks. Here's how we do it. We borrow air mattresses and form the family bed in the front room! Ofelia loved this arrangement.
Actually, both girls loved it. Setting up was the best. You get mattress rides down the hallway.

And then Papa dumps you out onto the other mattress... or the floor.
No sleeping problems here.

The Grandmas Come to Denver

Last weekend my mom (Grandma Sandy) and my grandma (Little Grandma) came for a visit. Sofi and Ofelia were very excited. And when they realized that the grandmas were staying at our house for a few days they got even more excited! They still talk about the grandmas and keep asking when they are coming back to stay with us.

Every morning Sofi would go into the room to see if they were up.
Both girls spent the first afternoon tearing apart the shelves to show the grandmas all of their toys.
Ofelia gave the tours. She tried to get Little Grandma to sit in the cabinet with her, but Little Grandma didn't go for it.
A walk down the hallway.
Since it was Valentines weekend the girls made special cupcakes.
This is just a cute sister moment.
Back to the toys!

Medina Family Practice

So after the girls finish up their soccer careers, we've decided they should become doctors. Don't they look cute and so professional?



Girls

The girls are starting to play together more and more these days. Here are a few shots of their favorite activities.

Playing in the cabinets.
Naked plane rides???
Sitting in anything that seems to hug.
Hallway cruising.
Hugging... such girls.
Sitting in soccer goals. One day they'll learn to just put the ball in the net.
Doing Papa's hair. Make pretty eyes, Ofelia!
