Halloween Sneak Peek

Between preschool (Tuesday), playgroup (Wednesday), library storytime (Thursday), ward trunk-or-treat (Friday), and actual Halloween on Saturday, Addie will have been in a princess costume the majority of the week.

(I find it hilarious that she has never seen any of the Disney princess movies but is still enthralled with them. She just calls all princesses "Princess Presto" and if you don't know who that is, you don't have a toddler. Or you're a better mom than me and they don't watch PBS Kids in the morning.)

Addie showing off her ring and wand.

She waves the wand and says "Princess Presto with SPELLING POWER." Hilarious.

We've already broken one crown and we are on our third wand. So......it's going to be a long weekend. On another note, she loves the little princess high heel shoes and can actually walk in them about as well as I walk in normal high heels.

More to come after the weekend......

New Haircuts & Other Excitement

I knew it was time to take Addison in for a haircut when even Jeremy was noticing it looking a little stringy.  Anyway, I took her in and my friend cutting her hair suggested we try to a bob – it would even out most of her hair – and make it look a little thicker.  I asked Addie if she wanted to try it, and she said she did, so we went for it!

 

We really like it!  And to top it off, when my friend got through cutting her hair, she told Addie “You look like a princess” which was the perfect thing to say to a girl who is currently obsessed with them.  She looked in the mirror and then did a little happy dance in my friend’s living room.  So funny.

And if somebody could please tell this kid that it’s forty degrees outside!  I let them go play outside yesterday afternoon (in the rain) and Davis heads straight for the water table.  I guess that will be going away for the winter this weekend….so sad! 

2 Little Monkeys

1 fell off (on PURPOSE) and (didn’t break) his head.       

Did I Mention…

…that it snowed 6 inches Friday night???

P.S. We had a total "Ralphie" moment when I got addie all dressed, snow boots zipped, gloves on...."Mommy, I have to go potty." Fabulous!

Typical Afternoon – A Photo Essay

Dozy kids, smiles, a few fights and tears, reminders to share, hugs and forgiveness. Typical afternoon with two toddlers.
