my sweet valentine…

I am in the midst of making Olivia’s valentine cards to hand out at kindergarten so we spent a few minutes today taking pictures to put on them.  I am not a big prop photographer so I had absolutely nothing to use that was valentine-ish, haha.  I brilliantly (or not) decided to cut out a heart, had her color it red and we wrote her name on it.  That is about as valentine prop as it gets, right?!  LOL. I like to consider myself a creative artist, but perhaps this cheesy cut out heart has proved me wrong?

marlowe turns 2…

My baby turned into a toddler yesterday.  Ugh, heartbreaking right?!  I just happened to be taking these pictures for a review I wrote for Pediped, so obviously the shoes are featured but I thought she looked too stinking cute not to share them on my blog with you guys.   Happy Friday everyone!

twinkle twinkle

I gave in to the massively popular “twinkle light” pictures this year.  It seemed easier than trying to drag my unwilling children to some location outdoors and have them melt down in public (I usually have a meltdown too).  But I was wrong, this was not easy either.  As usual, I ended up saying words I shouldn’t say, sweating far more than any woman should and feeling like all the images must have turned out like crap.  I was pleasantly surprised when I saw these little angelic faces on my computer screen as I uploaded them from my flash card.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS FROM MY FAMILY TO YOURS!

my big (little) kindergartner

I can’t believe this time in our lives is already here.  I can’t believe my first baby is now a kindergartner.  It just seems almost unreal.  She is growing too fast and has become such a beautiful big girl, no longer looking like a baby.  I must use the term “big” loosely since she is by far the smallest kindergartner at school.  I know it is normal to feel a bit sad when your child enters kindergarten but I also felt extremely proud.  I was so proud of how well she did, being only 4 years old entering school and knowing what a wild child she is normally.  I was so happy to see her doing so well and to see how excited she was to be there.  This is just one of many exciting next steps to come in our lives.  Here are a couple pictures from that special morning.  She demanded she wear her Hello Kitty shirt with an apple, in honor of her first day of school.

It was still pretty much dark out and raining!  You can see the streetlights are still on.

This is her buddy Alex from daycare, the son of our awesome daycare provider.  We are so lucky to have Alex in Olivia’s kindergarten class, they are so excited.

and here they are on the bench outside of their classroom, waiting to go inside.

I just adore this girl…she is teeny tiny, totally adorable and so full of attitude.  Everyone always says she may be little but she is sure mighty and boy are they right.  I love her more than words.
