Lazy Weekend

Sleepy girl!
Daddy worked at an AAU tournament this weekend so the girls had mommy all to themselves.  We played and played and played!  It was nice not having to go anywhere or to do any work and to just be with them!  On Saturday Claire came in to wake mommy but ended up falling right back to sleep.  Stella woke her up for breakfast but not until 8 o'clock!



During Claire's quick nap on Sunday Stella wanted to play Just Dance.

Big Girl Bed & Frozen!

Daddy set up a toddler bed (compliments of Grammie & Pa! - thanks you guys!)  for Claire on Monday and she was so excited about it.  She's such a big girl and has gone to bed great every night this week.  Mommy may not have been ready for this but she definitely was! 















We bought the Disney movie Frozen this week and had a movie night on Friday.  The girls weren't sure what to think of the movie but when Gigi and Cami visited for a sleepover on Saturday and wanted to watch it again they were so excited about it.  Now Stella says it's her favorite movie!  Of course Mommy doesn't mind at all because as usual, Disney did not disappoint - Olaf makes us all laugh!



We had a lazy, lazy Sunday afternoon and all enjoyed a nap, even Lily!

Other news this week: The girls enjoyed swimming lessons again and Stella is definitely not afraid to jump into the pool anymore!  We had dinner at Aunt Mary Jane's and Uncle Neil's on Wednesday and that was a great treat - mommy didn't have to cook and we were sent home with lots of leftovers!  Very thankful to have them just down the street for unexpected treats like that!

Final Four

This weekend daddy went out of town for the state basketball tournament so mommy and the girls had a sleep over at Grammie and Pa's.  Everyone had such a fun time!  On Thursday we started parent-tot swimming lessons and both girls loved the pool and are excited to go back this week!  Claire is growing and changing right before our eyes.  She's doing great with the classroom environment at Gymnastics and when she's being scolded at daycare or home it breaks her little heart.  She's so sweet but is also such a little monkey!

March 2014

This was a quiet week but an enjoyable one with daddy between seasons and home with us a little extra than we are used to.  On Thursday Claire asked to go out to a restaurant for dinner and since we didn't have anything going on and she's not easy to say no to we had a mid-week treat at Pizza Hut.

We don't have much news but can share that our growing girls love technology! They always want to play games or watch shows on the iPad. Who would have thought at age 2 and 4 we are limiting computer time! They also love to play birthday party or tea party, love hide-n-seek, and their new favorite show is Strawberry Shortcake. They also color everyday but also have fun making crafts and recently want to play with play dough a lot. It's funny how they have so many toys but often play with the same things every day!

We are all looking forward to Spring and some warmer weather!
