Kayleigh’s BFF Sydney turned 5! Kayleigh was really excited to spend the day with her at her house. She even had a special Hello Kitty dress she has been waiting a month to wear just for this occasion. It was the perfect party for these girls. Complete with makeovers, nails, and tattoos. We had a fabulous time! Happy Birthday Miss Sydney!
Papa Mike and Gma Lisa gave the girls front row tickets to Disney on Ice as one of their Christmas presents. It was awesome! We have been to a few show and we thought this was the best yet! Every princess was there and Toy Story. We were about a foot away from the ice and center stage. They girls enjoyed popcorn and lemonade. We had an amazing time- thank you Papa and Gaga!
It was snowing on us!
Carrie had to hold onto Addie, because I think she was ready to be in the show…
Kayleigh dancing with Aladdin…
All the girls!
Tonight we celebrated April’s birthday! The girls love their Auntie April! She is so great and patient with them. She lets them play in her room and play with her toys. She has a room filled to the brim with 35+ years worth of goodies. She has balloons, figurines, games, movies, stuffed animals, and you name it! Not sure how many times we had to light those cake candles. The girls all wanted to blow them out and of course April had to get her turn making a wish. We love you very much April!
I have been wanting to change up our kitchen for a while. I would love new counter tops one day, but decided to start with a new back splash. Josh has never done tile before, but was definitely up for the challenge. We enlisted our nephew Tanner to help out.
Before…
Setting the tile…
Grouting…
Sealed and Finished…
I love it!! Thanks guys for all your hard work. I did get my hands dirty a few times too. I am already thinking of the next project for Josh and Tanner!
Josh brought my car in for an oil change today with his little side kick. I met up with them at the dealership and this is what I find…
That girl loves her chocolate! She ate almost the entire donut and she already had breakfast today!
Taylor is very particular when it comes to her sleeping. She loves nap time and will usually sleep for at least 2-3 hours. There have been many times I have had to wake her up for dinner. She HAS to sleep with her baby blanket, Cars blanket, pillow pet, then a slew of toys that rotate. Usually there is Baby Ariel, Jesse, Woody, Buzz, Cars, Baby Doll with bottle, baseball bats, books, flash lights, and whatever else she can cram into bed with her. Today she didn’t want to take off her sun glasses and jewelry. Whatever as long as you sleep good!
We partied like rock stars on New Years Eve! First we got some Greek for dinner, then we headed over to the Thie’s. We played cards and made some noise…until shortly after 8pm, then it was home for bed! The girls went to my parents and we went back to our house with some friends to play cards.
Taylor was the big winner at Texas Hold ‘Em…
Happy New Year!!!
Christmas morning doesn’t get much better than when you have a 2 year old and 4 year old to share it with!! The girls were so giddy about everything. They would scream in joy about wrapped socks! We spent a lazy morning at home. Daddy was up for presents, made breakfast, then snoozed away his cold on the couch. The girls played with all their new goodies.
Kayleigh of course saw this walking puppy on a commercial and thought it was the coolest thing ever. “Mommy, a puppy you can walk. It is like your BFF walking dog!” Well what is your real dog?? I am pretty sure we can walk her and save the $50, but ok Santa is a sucker.
Taylor got a big girl Cars bike. I love that she loves Cars so much, but also loves Barbie and Princesses. Such a good mix! Her legs a too short but hopefully she will grow into it this year!
The three storey mansion doll house was kind of a big deal! They loved it!! They spent all morning with all their new and old dolls.
After a nice morning at home, we all headed to Gpa and Gma Thie’s house. My parents and my Aunt Jeanne, Rick, and Deidre were all there as well
Poor little Elvis really wanted to get into Taylor’s box of food, too bad it was fake and Taylor wasn’t into sharing!
Merry Christmas!!!
