Thank You!









Grammy and PawPaw send a box of love! Thanks so much for the candy, book and walkie-talkies. I am sure lots of conversations will be had on those! What fun!



Red Hot!





Mia wanted more candy and wasn't happy when I told her we were done. She was mad!

Candy and More Candy!


She doesn't look guilty at all....does she?


Sticky, sweet face!

Mia wanted more of Ansley's treasure!


Ansley was so proud of her Valentine Box. She loved going through all of the cards!


Mommy's Loot!


Today I was showered with lots of Valentine Love from my kids at school! It is so fun teaching such a great group of students! I was greeted with chocolates, a rose, stuffed animals and lots of candy and cards!

Before School!





The girls were all dressed and ready for their Valentine's Party at school today. It didn't disappoint. When I walked in Ansley's class to pick her up, it smelled like chocolate and cupcakes! Yes, both girls enjoyed sweet treats today!

Quote of the Week!

Mia said, "Jose, potty, poopy?" This was a huge laughter moment among her teachers (Jose and Jennifer). Ms. Jennifer replied, "Well Mia, you will have to ask Ms. Jose when she comes back!" This girl makes us laugh daily!

Love!


Ansley was showing me her Valentine's from her friends Ella and Miller (thanks guys)! This week has been filled with love and celebrating it! Ansley made her first Valentine's box at school, tomorrow at her P.J. Party it will be filled with treats from her school friends. Daddy joined the girls for their Sweetheart Lunch at school today. He arrived with pink teddy bears and candy! He sure knows how to make his girls feel special!

Be Mine!



Mia is sending her first hand-made Valentine! We are sending tons of love!

Bottoms Up!


Yep, that is Mia behind the bowl drinking spinach juice! She is just like her big sister and can't get enough of the green stuff. S. and I laugh thinking we have the only three-year old in the world asking for spinach as her vegetable of choice!


For those of you who are skeptical....that really is spinach in the bowl! Happy Hump Day!

After School Activity!


She was very serious about her bead making!


These precious hands!

She loved the finished product! What a fun activity!

Beautiful Mia!







Some pix of Mia playing this week. She is so much fun right now. She knows exactly what she wants and can pitch a fit with the best of them! She is learning her boundaries and figuring out new words daily to communicate her needs. She is growing up. She is a very loving little girl!

May God Always Bless Mia!






Today Mia was baptized. The same pastor that welcomed us to our church and baptized Ansley had the honor of baptizing our Mia today. When the brief ceremony was over Mia waved to the crowed and said, "bye, bye"! She was a crowd pleaser. We are so grateful to have the opportunity to profess our commitment and publicly announce that we will teach our children about God! What gifts they are in our lives.

Tummies.....




Before baths tonight we got a few picts of the girls tummies! We haven't laughed this hard in a very long time! Someday they are going to kill us for taking these pictures! Enjoy!

Sweet Princess!


Mia's turn to dress up! She loves being a princess too! Ansley gives assignments to everyone and I am always the fairy godmother, daddy is the mean stepsister, tonight he put his foot down and stated he was the prince!

Splash!





We found this cool water fall that we could actually play in!

Exploring!


We hiked a short trail and found an old stone wall!


Daddy and the girls!

Mommy teaching Mia how to throw a rock in the water!
