 my sweetness

 blowing kisses to daddy

just being nuggie

and MELTING my heart

busy gals

busy week... worked Monday & Tuesday, yesterday we went to little gym to make up our snow day, I actually thought that we might have to make-up a snow day, snow day, but not so. We just had a little dusting (well pretty fluffy snowflakes) of snow.  Then we went and got some stuff for Laniers new big girl room at my parents. She has my old soldiers bed and we went with a pretty flower/funky theme.  I'll have to post pics. Super cute though. Then, today, we went to chic-fil-a for breakfast with Court and Carter, then the Children's Museum, then Yolo. I think I am managing quite well with TWO kiddos !!! So here are some shots from the last couple days :).

notice the littke scratch on her forehead... Thanks Casey (our doggy)

 lanier wanted nothing to do with THIS...

 and I wanted EVERYTHING to do with THIS...

 we LOVE to jump jump

 and run run

tummy time

and at first I thought Stoli and his claws... then I realized it was Lanier and her crayons...lets just say, they are now in a plastic bag and not just left on her table anymore. The "artwork," however, has been left up for a bit. Its all cute when it can be wiped off Right ?

cheese

are you seeing a THEME... fingers & drool, fingers & drool

and here is a little pic of some needlepoint veggies my mom did WAY back in the 70's, early 80's. I found them in their attic and they warm up my bare kitchen wall SO well !! very Vintage

do we HEaRt Mickey and friends ?

You betcha

someone not wanting to put the top half of her jammies on, So who's to fight that one...

mornings over here

not so happy...

 thinkin' bout it... wait for it..

 there she is...

we are gearing up for the BEARS game today. The girls are dressed in their very best orange and navy blue. I can guarantee there will be pictures to come

and fairys too !!!!

Amelia ( my sister-in-law) dropped this fairy outfit over yesterday and Lanier is in LOVE with it !! She look sooo cute

 just posing for mommy

 all while Marrin napped... paci MUST go !!

Angels and demons...

what my sweet angel wore today :)

and our ENEMY...the dreaded paci !! I am about to have to destroy these dang things.  Marrin keeps waking up at night wanting it back in her mouth. I think we are gonna have to plan a night and just battle it out.  She had been sleeping sooo well but the last 3 nights have had us up, and to make matters worse, they have been the days I have to go to work in the morning. I think I managed 8 hours of sleep in 2 days along with my 2,  12 hour work days. Makes for one tired mommy. 

Lanier slept on her belly from 8 weeks on ( hey the kid had colic and this was the ONLY way she would sleep)  you do what you gotta do !! She also then began to suck her two fingers, which worked out great at the time ( we now have crooked fingers but, again, what are ya gonna do?)

I have NEVER been a paci fan so the little paci fairy will be visiting very soon. Poor Marrin, but at least she has found her fingers :). I know people say " well you can't take her fingers away and you can always throw out a paci" but the paci ain't for this momma :)

 SO keep your little smirk miss paci, you have served us well these past 3 months but your days are number...

at it again

moms at it again...

 her favorite, puzzles.  She is SOOO good at them

 and I made this tag for her today while I was a work.  She loved it ! Just in case we loose dee dee (baby)

 ha ha. Its just sitting on her head
