Embrace the Camera

Guys, this never happens. This girl rarely sits still, let alone lays in my arms for an extended period of time. She laid like this for probably 15 minutes. I loved it so much. She is getting so big and I miss my little chunky baby. 

I love this ones snuggles. 

Have a great Thursday!

Us Lately

First off, Happy Birthday to my sweet Sister! She is the best sis a girl could ask for! Love ya Sarah. 

We have been doing a whole lot of nothing around here lately. I've said it before, but I am so ready for Spring. We had a couple of warmer days and it was so nice to get the girls outside to play. Here are a couple pictures of what we have been up to lately. 

Lily came home around Valentines day with this cuteness. I love it. 

We got to play with cousins. 

We have been spending some time at chick fil a. 

and playing with the Ipad. 

We have been performing too. (she reminds me so much of my sister when we were younger. She was always putting on a show)

This girl doesn't get enough love on the blog, but she is an important part of our family and we all love her a bunch. 

We have been doing whatever necessary to keep ourselves entertained. 

I'm looking forward to my trip to LA with my sis in March! Avery's 2nd bday is coming up in April so I have to start planning for that. How is it possible that she is almost 2? 

Random Wednesday

What is it with toddlers and eating, or lack of eating I should say with my kids. I swear they live on yogurt alone. When they do decide they are hungry, they eat the typical kid foods. Mac and cheese, chicken nuggets. I really do try to get them to eat different things. I cook and offer them everything I make. Sometimes they eat it. Sometimes they don't. Avery is way better at trying and actually liking new foods. Lily likes to immediately say it is yucky. I hope they grow out of this. I was a pretty picky kid, but I definitely ate more different foods then they do. 

Anyway, here are some super cute pictures of the girls at dinner a couple nights ago. They are eating and enjoying pancakes. 

I love these little stinkers, lets just hope they start enjoying food, and I don't go crazy trying to come up with things to feed these girls. 

This was a pretty random post so I am linking up with Shanna

It's Okay Tuesday

It's Okay............

- That I did a private yoga session with my sis and a instructor last night and I am sore today. 

- That I am super bummed that they ended season 3 of Downton Abbey the way they did. And it doesn't come back until Jan. 2014!

- That my kids are the freakin cutest kids ever. Evidence below: 

- That we are going to Disney on Ice on Thursday and I am really excited about it!

- That I usually fast forward through the singing on Glee. The whole show isn't as good this season. 

- That I am so over the weather and ready for Spring!

What are you okay about?

Linking up with Amber. 

Valentines Day

My name is Jenny and I am a blog slacker. Sorry. I will try to do better. : ) I will start with the logical post. Valentines Day!

 Okay. So I must share a disclaimer. I usually get the little gifts for the holidays. I picked out the jammies, one book each, and the spongebob candy. Daddy came home with all the rest. Spoiled much? 

It was like Christmas up in here. These rotten girls loved it though. 

Daddy and Lily made heart shaped sugar cookies. 

 and you have to wear your Snow White outfit. 

Little sis spent some time playing with play doh. 

Lily had her Valentines party at school. All the kids were really cute and they had a ton of fun. 

The little sisters had fun too. 

Then we came home to check out all of her Valentines! 

We had a great Valentines Day! 

I promise to try to be better about updating. 

Weekend and a Birthday

Gosh, I am feeling so lazy this week. I have been a super slacker at taking pictures and feel like coming up with blog worthy stuff is hard if I don't have cute pictures to go along. This weekend was a busy and fun one. My father in law turned 60 so we had family in town and a big "surprise" party on Saturday. I say "surprise" because he pretty much new what was happening. It's hard to keep it a secret when most of your family comes to town and stays in a big fancy cabin. But we still had a blast and the party was a success. I stunk at taking pictures so I only have these from Friday night. 

This was the first time Lily and Avery really got to play with Carson and Harrison who are their second cousins. They had so much fun together. We had a big family dinner on Friday night and just enjoyed the company. 

On Saturday, we went out and did some touristy stuff and went to the bakery. It was cold! Then we brought the babies home to nap and the big kids took a little hike in the woods. Later on Saturday was the party and I think Alan (father in law) really enjoyed himself! So Happy Birthday Alan!
