Too small?

Karolina rarely likes to dress-up. I thought it was hilarious that she had to put on the small dress because Amalia definitely has claimed the larger pink one as her "Cinderella"dress. Luckily Karolina doesn't mind:)

" My Cinderella Dress


Amalia loves to dress up---- this is by far her favorite dress ( thanks to Amy) She literally wears it everyday. I HAVE to make sure it it clean or else there will be major drama!

Karolina with Teddy Bear in Sandal!


Karolina loves to play with stuffed animals! Anyone with kids knows how quickly those accumulate! I tried to down-size our collection with no luck. I went through them and put some aside, only to have Karolina ask for serveral of them only 2 days later! Good thing I still had them. This picture is random isn't it! She asked me to specifically take this picture! What a cutie!

All This Coloring Wears Me Out!!!


Amalia likes to color and she takes it pretty seriously. She likes to stay in the lines and wants it to look "perfect" ! ( Notice her yellow horse!)One afternoon we found her asleep with crayon in hand--- now that's dedication!

A Symbol of a Mother's Love!!!



Karolina was invited to her first "friend" birthday party! A cute little friend of hers from pre-school- Chloe - invited her to a "Chuck -e - Cheese" party! She showed me the invitation, Saturday at noon! Yes, that's right Sat. at noon at Chuck-e-Cheese in Utah County! So of course I voluteered to help at the party! I wanted to make sure Karolina was safe in all that craziness. She looked forward to the party for over a week, asking me everyday if it was Saturday yet! It was extremely full, and half the rides were out of order. But of course Karolina and Amalia loved it. The show, the games, Chucky dancing with them and of course the lovely ball pit! It's funny how all the craziness there gave me a huge buzz in my head but kids love it! So at least we've met the Chuck-e-Cheese quota for the year, right! ????My kids had a blast and so it was worth it. But of course we had bath time early in the afternoon that day:)
