Breakfast. Well, Brunch.

I am taking these pictures because this is my dream. For someone, anyone, to get up in the morning and make me breakfasts exactly like this. Banana, raisins, some rice snack things and a few bites of scrambled eggs. This is perfectly what I would want to eat at 10:30 in the morning and yes, I am jealous of Evelyn Macie.

 

 

This is her "seriously Mom, I'm trying to eat" look.

Hair cut

I cut allie's hair tonight and it was touch and go for a minute....actually it was near disaster for a minute, but i think it came out alright. :)

Another hair cut

Addison got a little trim tonight too. :)

And also thankful today for my visiting teachers. They are a fresh breeze in my life.

Unpredictable

Adds just asked me what "unpredictable" means.  So i explained it to her and then she told me, "i am unpredictable".  i explained it perfectly!  :)

Check up

 

Evelyn Macie had her 15 month check up yesterday. It was a month late, but close enough. :)
She was in the 95th percentile for height and the 90th for weight. Perfectly proportionate and consistent with what she has always been. Perfect.

Allie and her faces

Daddy wanted to take a picture of Allie, so the first one was her smiling. Then she said, "Daddy do this one" about nine more times with an assortment of hilarious mugs. These were my favorite...

 

 

 

 

 

 

Freeeeeeeee

Addison and I are both now proud owners of Nike Free Run 2's. That makes me laugh. Mine were necessary, Addison's were on sale. Everybody won. lol.
She is very aware that they are "like Mommy's" and that they will make her "faster".
What she is not aware of is that they will also be her footwear companion in her first 5K, which I am determined she will run within the next year. I use the word "run" loosely. I plan on running and pushing a jogging stroller where she can rest from time to time if necessary. She will cross the finish line running in these shoes though, of that I am sure!

 

 

 

My climber Evelyn was pretty proud of herself.

 

Who is this?

 

So we are supposed to be eating dinner, but all we are really doing is making toot noises. This is now Evelyn's favorite thing to do in the world. It also makes her the most popular little ring leader with her sisters, so she has started doing it whenever she is bored. They quickly follow suit every time. At the dinner table however is not acceptable. At all. So after I have gotten after everyone:

Addison: Do you know what I think sometimes?
Me: What Addison? (rather tersely)
Addison: Did you mess around when you were a kid?
Me: Yes Addison. (humbly)
Addison: That's what I thought. (Mostly to herself)

:/

She's so sweet.

BANGS

Oh ya, I cut Allie's bangs and they turned out SO cute. Yes, win for me. Purely luck for sure.

 

I am feeling very much better about this area of my home. :) Robbie hung all of these frames today and i LOVE how it turned out. Thank you Babe!

 

 

While going through Allie's hand me down shoes, I came across these for Evelyn. I bought these for Allie and then she outgrew them almost immediately, so they look brand new. Yay! and Evelyn loved them, she felt fancy I think. :)

 

 

This is a precious one.

Make me cry.  My tiny baby, my only binky baby snoozin at dland.  Awww those were GREAT times. 

Happy

Im feeding them to the girls cuz

Graham crackers are my kryptonite.

Cutest Coat

Auntie Amber got Addison this coat when she was so little, Allie wore it and Evelyn Macie has been wearing it since last fall. I LOVE it and I will be so sad when she's too big for it. We have definitely gotten our mileage out of it though. A fave for sure. The girls were so excited to go to the babysitter today, they hadn't been since last October! and it was nice for Rob and I to have a couple hours just us too. :)

 

WALKING!!!

Yesterday I was sitting on my bed folding laundry and low and behold Miss Evelyn let go of the end of my bed and walked to the door! A few steps here and there was all I had seen before but that was a sizable distance. So now the truth is out and I KNOW she can walk! Whether or not she wants to, I am not convinced. She's got a pretty cush life at this point.

Robbie and I coaxing her to walk. We've been doing this each night Rob's home. It's fun, but soon she just get silly!
 
 

Evelyn just stood up totally unaided! Then she squatted down, picked up a puzzle piece and stood back up and because Addi was cheering for her, she started dancing! Only my child! She can't walk, but watch out for those dance moves! LOL!!!

So I am kind of obsessed with muffin tins lately. I know that sounds weird, but good things come in muffin tins...

Last week I made Robbie a dessert that had brownies on the bottom and chocolate chip cookie dough on top, in a muffin tin. He said, and I quote, "this is the best thing I have ever tasted". My heart soared. Lol. So now I am going to recreate it but then place a bite size snickers in each one as they come out of the oven.
They are going in now:

and now they are OUT and yummy...
