Peacemaker

Had to share, just heard the funniest exchange with the girls.... Livi has some toys Ava wants to play with, and there are 4 of them. So Ava is trying to get Liv to share. As I sit down to text someone, I hear Ava tell her sister, "Liv, so here's the situation; you get 2 and I get 2." Hilarious!! Where did she get that?? Do I say that?

Majestic Fairies

Just got back from my second trip to London, for work, but didn't bother taking any pictures this time. Really just worked, no sightseeing. However, the one thing I absolutely had to do was visit the fairy shop I discovered the first time, in Hampstead. So I made a special trip out there my last day for my precious little princess fairies. Before I left Ava asked for, "a fairy outfit, a wand (because I only got one for Livi last time, she got the crown), a crown, but with no ribbons; and of course, shoes." Pretty particular. So here is the result - outfits, hair accessories, ballet slippers, a wand, and stationary kits.....Momma did good.

Backyard Swimming

Waterpark...trailor trash style! We had fun, even though only half of my bottom fits on the slide!

Science, Nature and Mom & Dad

Last weekend we took the girls to the Science & Nature museum. They go a lot with their nanny, but it was the first time for Mom & Dad....it was funny because they knew where to go and would lead us around. I'm so glad we finally got to see it other than in pictures, it's a really neat place. And thanks to Gracie for taking them here often!! They loved playing!
