Down memory lane - Winter 2013



If there's one thing I love most, it's snow days!! Down time with fun in the snow and hot chocolate, cuddles and watching some of our favorites like Toot & Puddle, Franklin, Little Bear, The Berenstain Bears, Olivia, The Backyardigans, Sofia the First...or any Christmas movie, especially the Polar Express! 

We love snow days!!





                                  Nothing better than waking up to snow and homemade fun.


















The girls decided to dress up our snowlady and chose Snow White after looking through their dress-up clothes...neither of them wanted snow white to melt....
 




















After thawing out and a warm bath, Lindsey always enjoyed playing with her playhouse and would always holler for me to come find her and let me know she was in her house. She loved how she could fit inside and imagination play....





.

Lindsey started getting a cold but continued to smile....I mean, who doesn't love that baby face








I had much time to clean and rearrange Hailey's bedroom..I loved cleaning and surprising the girls with changes to their rooms. 







Hailey started gymnastics and enjoyed learning a new skill...she wore her gymnastic leotards as much as she could around the house...

















Yay! Lindsey was feeling better and time for a visit to Mimi's and Pop's to see everyone including kitty




                                Hailey took sewing lessons and made her first creation












The circus came to town, so Aunt Mary and I decided to take the girls hoping they would enjoy it.



                                                               Me and my girl...

I think I have so many pictures of the girls sleeping...I still love watching them sleep, sorry girls, but it will never get old.




The girls called for me to come see where they were. Totally not surprised, my favorite centerpieces.



My kitchen helper! Lindsey has always found her place in the kitchen and enjoys watching and helping. She asks to sit on the counter and use her foot drawer. one of her favorite veggies is broccoli and helps pour it into the steamer bowl.








                                           Just because I don't want to miss a moment...










                                        Dollar store glow wands are always worth it...





                                                 More snow...our winter wonderland.

1st Day of Fall 2012

What can I say, other than the 1st day of fall is absolutely beautiful! (even though my girls want to watch Christmas movies today).  Hailey isn't feeling very well, but managed to play outside and enjoy the weather for a little while...and of course get a few pics of the kiddos with our glamorous glittering pumpkins...so girly! Some other accomplishments this week...Hailey read the bedtime story 2 nights ago...might have been a "Dick & Jane" book, but mommy was so proud! Lindsey has taken on "spitting" which we are trying to break!  She also gets a big kick out of putting her mouth on mine or Chris' belly and blowing, followed by, "I pooted!!"  Yep, I think she might be our tomboy...  Hailey had the best attempt at getting Lindsey to try to stop spitting by saying, "Lindsey! Stop spitting or you're going to turn into a BOY!!"  Lindsey responded, "Oh noooo!" with her hands on her cheeks and hasn't att...

"Bootyful"

Are there any words for this?  I think every mother just loves to sneak a pic at moments like these: (Sorry girls...one day you'll understand when you become a mommy!) My little monkey, Lindsey Grace(2yrs): As opposed to Hailey's bootyful pic at 7 months:                                                                        Love them!!
