Bean-ism

Willow is just too much fun.

We call them beanisms

She is always on the GO>

and you can usually hear her.  Happy 1 year and 1 month.

Girls are back in town

So glad to have my girls back in town.  They had a lot of fun up north.  While they were gone I sorted through all of their well wishing cards (birthdays, halloween, valentines day and etc) and came across Scarlett's 2nd birthday card with a princess to decorate.  She thought I was the greatest!! 

Little Willow bean couldn't contain herself with all of the toys that she forgot about.

When I feed her I usually let her play with one thing, and then we usually talk about it.  Today I was trying to get her to say "pumpkin," she wasn't buying it...ha

One of our stations during learning time was "sewing," hop on over to our educational blog to learn more.

Break

I know what you are thinking....
break
what does that have to do with the flat iron. 
Well, this free style broke on me a few weeks back. 
To be honest I wasn't completely happy with it and if anything happens to it, you get your money back or replacement.

Well, I called and they said, keep your other one, incase your new one breaks.  So now I have the super awesome bio-ionic  One pass flat iron and I love it!!

But really, speaking of "break," I have had a FOUR day break from my kids.  They flew up to Ohio with Daddy while he went golfing.  So mommy got a break.  I can't wait to pick them up tomorrow.  I liked my break, but I am ready to see my girls (and my hubby).
If you took pics of my girls while they were up north, please send them to me and I will post them (although I really can't blog about them....ha)

Soccer

Grayson (the son of the other Ryan and Jill) had a soccer game this past weekend.  On my way to the gym, I stopped quickly to give him these shades and take a few pics.  Can't wait to take the girls, they will love seeing all the soccer games at the fields.

Little Mare bear chillin out watchin her brother.

Can you believe

that I found an Ohio State t-shirt in Goodwill in Jax. (the nerve of someone donating that to Goodwill) and of course I bought it.

and Rochelle found a super cute dress that she was thinking of wearing to church. (click on her name for her blog)

We went to visit Sev Tamayo in the Brooks Rehab in Jax too.  (click on his name to read his caringbridge)

And yummy food at PF Changs to end the day.  Rochelle and I had so much fun relaxing and enjoying our day out.  It was nice to not have to worry about being gone for a few hours to get home to kids.  This was a much needed day out. 
Now onto the weekend for continuing to CLEAN my ENTIRE house.

Our girls

Today, we trucked out to St. Augustine with this little pumpkin
(yes, we are taking the bottle away and she knows it so she holds onto for dear life)

and this big sister (who is talking to Grandma I-I on the phone about her trip to Ohio)

To get a few pictures of our big girl turning ONE. 

Preview of the Pictures to come................

Daddy Daycare

Love finding random pics on my camera from when I am NOT home.

Carina's mom and I had ran out to grab a bite to eat while Ryan watched the girls on Sunday afternoon.

um, yes, I am thinking what you are thinking....is that CHOKING her?

Assuming the girls dressed this little squeezamugoo up....

and the winner is....

I told Scarlett she had to "draw" a name.  So while I was writing names I found her going to get her "artbox to draw a name."  ha

She picked Aunt Joy.

So Aunt Joy will be receiving this very soon.

Because she was one of the people that commented on my blog.  I appreciate all my supporters and the biggest reason I write this blog is to document our lives for our families, friends and especially for our girls.
