hello monday

hello late start. this morning we had our third late start of the year. i love a good snow/cold day. but late starts those are pretty awesome too. a few extra hours. sleeping in. a slower pace. less rushing. it is a little challenging with mags and her morning nap. this morning she went down for nap from 8 to 9:15 so that worked well.

here is mags getting in a little early morning princess play last week.

hello dollhouse project. cece and i have slowly but surely been chipping away at the dollhouse project. the house painting is done. now we have a little modge-podging to do. then to tackle the furniture.

cece has made all the color choices. red roof, pink siding, light pink trim, mint green interior. i like it. 

hello sporty jo. ellie has been busy playing basketball and her volleyball season is about to start. she has been playing basketball on saturdays. sometimes we have to be a little creative between naps and lunch and games.

maggie cheering ellie on at practice. it is hilarious sometimes i am pretty sure maggie has no idea ellie is out there playing and then all of a sudden she sees her and will start screaming and laughing like crazy. its cute. and funny. really funny.

having a little fro-yo during ellie's volleyball practice. maggie was saying cheese.....

maggie is eating cheese and way to into the action to look at the camera. we packed a picnic lunch last saturday to eat during ellie's basketball game. gotta be creative. 

hello mighty monkey magpie. maggie is quickly letting us know there is no place she can't and won't go. emptying the fridge to climbing {repeatedly} on the table to helping make pancakes. she is a goer.
