water play

So...we live in Utah, it is the beginning of February, and although the sun may be shining...there is snow on the ground and it sure is cold.  So what should we do?!  Bring in our little water table, fill it with warm water, throw in some princesses and other toys, and go to town.  This is what we did on Monday morning:

While Paisley was sleeping Adey and I decided to get out her work books and do a little homework.  I love this work book and putting it in page protectors so we can use dry erase markers with it and do the pages over and over again!

Princess dance party

These two beautiful girls doing what they do best:

Wednesday morning we turned on some Princess Sofia music and had a blast dancing away!  These girls are just beautiful in pink and sure know how to work the camera.  it was so fun full of twirls and hands in the air and singing our little hearts out!  Dance parties are amongst one of our favorite things to do!

my world

these two are my everything....my world.  they mean more than words can describe and i don't know what i would do without them in my life.  i am beyond blessed.  i love watching them play together.  Adey is so concerned for her sister and always makes sure she has toys to play with or invites her to play together.  Adey has such a big heart, sweet, loving, gentle and sometimes is a little sensitive.  These two have endless laughs together and hardly ever fight...which is true and i feel pretty lucky.  i mean i am sure the arguments are coming but for now i will enjoy the peacefulness they share.  on the other hand Paisley is quite the vocal one, but still can melt anyones heart with that smile of hers and her sweet manners.  yes my 19th month old says please, thank you, yes, ok, welcome...amongst a bunch of other words.  She loves playing side by side with Adey and even taking Adey's toys and Adey is so good about quickly finding something to trade her so they can still play together.  They loves dress up, babies, barbies, pet shops, picnics, water play, bath time, bubbles, park time, walks, watching tv, doctors...you name it they will usually play it together.  they melt my heart with the sister bond they have and i hope they know how special it is as they grow!  i love these girls so much and i for see so much fun with my little best friends in the many years to come!

Paisley's first time with playdough

So the other day we got out the playdough and i was curious to see what my little everything goes in her nose precious baby girl would do...

she didn't stick it up her nose...she did of course taste it but quickly learned it was not yummy at all.  It was a mess and everywhere but hey its all part of being a kid (something i am trying to learn to let go...let kids be kids).  ps...adey had her dressed up in play clothes cause thats what they were playing before this...so cute.  and Paisley would go around the house saying "i pretty, i pretty" which is such an understatement...she is BEAUTIFUL, DARLING, PRETTY, CUTE, GORGEOUS...i could go on but i am biased.

and of course Adey played right along with her...just like the best of friends

Adey had already changed into her jammies...but still had on her play make up from playing dress up which she put on herself and actually didn't do that bad of a job.  I guess she has been watching her momma a little too much!  This girl is quite the diva and we are in trouble.  She loves getting dressed up, wearing her play heels, putting on make up, pretending to be at a ball or a mama or a doctor or a vet...the possibilities for this little girl are endless and i love watching her grow...but she is growing up a little too fast for my liking...

fun times...

rocking her baby and that headband of mine

shhhh...her baby is sleeping

doing what she does best

painting her bestie Eastynn

love how they sleep...

peeking in on my girls while they sleep is just a mom thing and it makes me smile because they just look so peaceful.  Then I walk in and they look like this:

look at that leg

just passed out

it makes me think about my brother and how he used to sleep when he was little...kids always find the most awkward sleep positions that seem the most comfortable to them but can also sleep anymore.  Aw..to be a kid again

Christmas festivities of 2013...part 2...

I decided this year that I wanted the girls to pick a gift out for each other and this was the results:

Adey picked out some doc McStuffins stuff for Paisley (i think secretly because Adey wanted to play with it too because she loves to play check up with her stuffed animals and babies)

i love this face ... and she loves to "talk" on a phone

Paisley picked out some baby doll stuff for Adey (which I too think she was hoping to play with them herself because baby dolls is paisley's favorite thing to play with besides bubble guppies)

aww....just so excited!

and have to end with this cute face!
