Just the two of us!

I love, love love watching my girls play together. Not that Kenzie can really "play" yet but the interaction between the two is like they've known eachother for years! I was laughing till I was crying the other day when Mya got on the floor, grabbed her sister's hand and started singing " I love you, you love me" the theme song from her obsession, BARNEY. Kenzie smiled and laughed then said " that's cool, but watch me stick my toes in my mouth." HA. Hours of entertainment!

Keepin busy

There's a reason why it's been months since my last post. My precious girls are keeping me busy! But, I wouldn't have it any other way. I'm quickly discovering that being a new mom of not one but TWO little ones is the ultimate tight rope act. Always balancing time, energy, priorities... the net on the ground, family, friends and my husband. So, I've concluded that if I can't post on my blog as much as I used to, that's ok. And, if the house is a little dirty, that's ok too! Time goes by so fast, the little things can wait. Gatta go, the circus is calling! :)

Mya's Second Birthday!

Well, the birthday celebration(s) came and went as quickly as the past two years. I know it's such a cliche thing to say but I REALLY can't believe my little girl is 2 years old. The time does fly by. I will take this moment to brag, after all it's my blog and could be considered an online brag book of shorts. Mya is the sweetest two year old in the world! Despite the occasional meltdown ( which I have to admit, she usually has good reason for) and the word "no" flying out of her mouth with every question asked ( even if she means to say yes... she still says "no") I could not be more proud. I watch her in amazement as her eyes light up and face beams when she's opening birthday presents or just playing tea party with Elmo and Barney. She truly is our special little girl and she makes the world ( our world) a better place just by being her. The love for a child grows with each year, and if ours keeps growing, it's possible we might burst by her 15th birthday. Kenzie has such a great role model in Mya and I can't wait to watch them grow and shine together! Mush mush mush I know... but I'm a new mom, what did ya expect?

Can't wait....

Until I have time to post on my blog again!!
stay tuned...

KENZIE " AMAZING" GRACE!

So tiny and precious... I feel like my life is complete now.

Mya's First Haircut!

Mya has spent her life thus far growing those beautiful, brunette locks and her hair was starting to get out of control and totally unmanageable! So, we decided today was the day for the "first" haircut. We were prepared for a lot of screaming and crying but she did great! Now, she's sportin' some cute, side swept bangs and about a 1/2 inch off the rest. We were thinking of giving her a Suri Cruise do but chicken'd out at last minute. The most important thing is now we can see those pretty green eyes with all that hair out of the way.
