Appreciating: February

-
There has been so much to appreciate this month.  In our typical fashion, we have kept entertained, from play dates to fire pits, there is never a dull moment.

My Picasso
Her people drawing skills are on point.  In this particular photo she took heed of everyone’s favorite color and proceeded to draw them in it.  This is a family photo of mommy, daddy, Grandma, Nonnie, Aunt Cassie, and Aunt Kelly.



The Cold
Taking advantage of the nip in the air, we broke out the marshmallows and got to roasting.  Although neither child was interested in a charred fluff.  They walked around eating chocolate and plain old marshmallows, so much to learn young grasshoppers.




The Birds
One of our favorite after dinner spots, we frequent the park to feed the crazy birds, turtles, and fish.  




Birthday Countdown
This little girl may not make it to her big day.  Mommy is breaking out all the stops to make it as epic as she is anticipating.  Her favorite line these days- “Can I have this for my party” spoken in regards to every toy that comes into her path.  Daddies going to have to get a second job just to fund all her presents.




Manatees
We enjoy the rain and cold for many reasons such as blowing bubbles and snuggly reading time.  It also brings some local favorites to our canals where they cuddle and snuggle as well, trying to keep warm.






Uptown Funk
Home girl likes to get down in the mornings while waiting in the school car loop line.





A Girl and her Dog



Play Dates
Still can’t get enough of our two besties.  Luke and Kaelyn have always had the best of time together, but the past couple weeks Lana and Katelyn are discovering it’s more fun to get in trouble together versus solo.





Valentine’s Day
We had our second annual V-day breakfast and scavenger hunt.  Kaelyn also had a special party at school- she was sooooo excited to pass out her valentines and get some in return.





Kid could not find the 5th heart to save her life.  




Take My Picture
We headed to the zoo on Valentine’s Day and Kaelyn posed on every bench we passed- “take my picture.”






I’m off to party plan.  Say a prayer.

Appreciating: November!

AHHHH!  Prepping for a new baby and holidays make for one crazy combo in my world.  So here we are, February knocking on the door, and I am finally posting our November, December, and January.  Better late than never I suppose.  It's been a super busy three months, but we have celebrated Thanksgiving, a new niece, Christmas, and prepared for a new arrival by moving the girls into one room and getting his nursery ready to go. And now, November.. We have moved up in gymnastics... now both girls get to play while mama sits.  My kind of gymnastics class.   We traveled to Tampa for Thanksgiving this year.  No baking involved... Ruth Chris Steak House for the win. A Thanksgiving celebration at school Daddy Daughter Date Our annual tree selection ceremony.  This year I was pretty insistent on the tree we chose... which ended up being a dud and hardly making it through Christmas. ...

Good-Bye 2015

Happy New Year!  We actually stayed awake long enough this year to say good-bye to 2015.  We even made it out which I don't think has happened since we had our two beauties.  You better believe the minute that clock hit midnight we were hailing the first Uber driver available to get us home.  This was mainly due to Kaelyn being awoken by the barrage of fireworks and not being able to settle until she had her mama passed out in her bed. We said good-bye to Nonnie yesterday after a week and a half of time together.  We were able to celebrate Christmas and say hello to the New Year together and it was oh so special.  Aunt Kelly and Ethan also joined in on the fun for a few days. Nonnie brought all of these presents We watched our tree, Dingo (Kaelyn named him), be hauled off yesterday and have taken down the last twinkling light.  We didn't let the year and the warm weather leave us without a final trip to our favorite spot. ...

How Did We Get Here?!? Kaelyn’s First Day of Preschool (and some serious catching up!)

I had no intention of putting my eldest daughter in school this year.  I figured I would reap the last drops of my sweet girl before she began the never-ending journey that is her education.  I have a sappy heart and for selfish reasons didn't want to let my girl go.  Well after a discussion with Kaelyn on the prospect of school and the enthusiasm she didn't try to hide from weak old mom... I decided to let my little bird fly.   After asking around and checking it out online we decided on a local school that just so happened to have two available spots… one for Kaelyn and one for her bestie, Luke.   After touring the school… Kaelyn was sold and there was no looking back.   Which brings us to today.   Kaelyn marched down the hallway and made herself at home in her new classroom.     I was the mom that was in the car loop twenty minutes early after the longest three hours of my life.   She  got in the car and proceeded ...
