the day before Ceci's birthday!

2 cookbooks to cook up some very yummy recipes! One from grandpa and one from us. I wonder what recipe she'll choose to try first.

3 days till Ceci's birthday.

Ceci got a very cute piggy bank for gift #8. She fell in love with this piggy bank last week while looking for a gift for her best friends birthday. Hopefully she enjoys saving her money in it.

5 days till Ceci's Birthday

Ceci LOVES, LOVES, LOVES NERF GUNS. This gift Tom picked out for Ceci. Gift number 6 is a NERF gun Bandolier to stock pile her ammo. I can only imagine the plethora of Nerf bullets all over the yard this Spring as I mow the yard.

Can you tell she's just a bit excited for her sketch book. Now she can doodle with her pens. This idea of hers has been fun.

Ten Days till Ceci's Birthday.

Ceci asked if she could have 1 gift each day until her birthday. Day 1....color pens. I love this idea, and Nicole is having a blast picking out her daily gift.

2011 Ice Storm

What a beauty it was this morning. As much as the girls thought that they would be guaranteed a day off from school today, they did not. What a bummer but atleast they don't have another snow day to make up.

My little girl is growing up.

I have come to full terms that my little girl is growing up. We are doing the unthinkable or so I thought until now. We are trying Nair our first step to shaving her legs. You should have seen Tom at Target as I was picking out the best option. So as I have hit this point in my life as a mother I thought it would be fun to start blogging the life of mom with pre-teen girls. We'll see how that goes. So for now enjoy the funny picture of my little girl trying something new.

It's all about the love.

At times our house can be so crazy, loud, chaotic, and the list goes on and on and on, and having 3 dogs in the house on top of 5 adults and 2 pre teen girls only adds to it all. Then I stumble upon times like these and I realize how much our dogs are a part of our lives and how much we love them.
