"I stuck"

I swear, these kids just have me so in love. They are too cute I can't take it. Ella does this thing when she gets stuck in places, like her foot in the crib, or her thumb in in arm sleeve she says, "I stuck" in this tiny little voice... you can't help but smile and be happy that my little bitty baby can tell me whats a matter! :)

Oh Hope College

First of all Ava squeezed herself next to Ella, so as you can see Ella (on left) is not happy about it!
Ella, my sweet Bella is trying to reach over and hug Ava.
Ava= momma's little ham
Ella Dancing and singing!
Do you see the matching bruises? yeah, you'd think they banged heads.... nope, just fell at separate times and bumped the same spot.

Thank you ladies for supporting mommy and wearing my College T-shirt!

Easter Party

I made this HUGE Easter bow for the girls and realized it was too giant to wear... have to save it till they are 4. However, Ava LOVED it and insisted upon wearing it before dinner! P.S. yes, my kids eat with their shirts off... you gotta a problem with it? :) Unless you want to get the stains out the their clothes then you'll hush!

Ava ran around for 20 minutes with this bow!
This year we heard from a friend about this Easter Party a girl from the Twins Club I am involved in throws every year. She is a Headstart Teacher in the area and really knows how to throw an age appropriate party! Anyhow, she invites others to invite friends and neighbors, anyone with children, so needless to say, we showed up! These were the favors she had at the party!
Ella coloring an egg (she is wearing a shirt we borrowed from our friend Kourtney, bc we didn't have any smocks!)
Ava and Ella Coloring and painting eggs
Ava loved picking what marker to use! (Notice her little bite mark on her cheek is getting better)


The cupcakes that Andrea made~! Very crafty!
They had a water tank with eggs... they girls were soaking by the end~!
Ava in the tank!

Ella couldn't believe it was okay for her to be playing in the water!



Such an awesome party and great idea, when we move into our new house I want to have fun little parties like this for kids!

Homemade Easter Baskets!

Happy Easter!!
These were ghetto baskets I found in my attic so I spray painted them white ( i ran out of paint at the end) and I made the liners and tied the ribbon!

Ella's new eating face

This is the face she makes when she chews!
Then when I pulled the camera out she thinks this face is the face to make.
Oh Ella! I love you!

Party Time

we went to a party for my friend Kelly's son Joseph who turned Two! The girls wore the dresses I made them and enjoyed playing with their friends.

Ella loved looking at the Puppy on the other side of the gate!

Overall they had a blast! Loved being at parties with lots of kids and new toys to play with!

Rain Rain- I love Rainy Days!

The other day it was raining out and we got out our new rainboots which the girls LOVED and wouldn't hardly take off without a fight! I love kids in rain boots and coats... now we need to find raincoats because my girls love stomping in the rain outside. This particular day we couldn't go outside in our boots, b/c it was lightning, but next time we will really use our boots to stomp in the rain!
