Disney Princesses On Ice

We had the pleasure of going to see Disney Princess Wishes on Ice on Valentine's Day. Charlotte and Hanna had the best time! Their eyes were glued on the performers the whole time. Melanie and I enjoyed it, too! We got to watch from the suites. That is the way to go. Complimentary food and our own bathroom. I'm not used to the VIP treatment. One of the attendants offered me a water bottle and I said "no thanks" because I though I'd have to pay like 5 bucks for it. Then she told me it's free... so of course I went for it!
Watch the video below for a little preview of our magical evening!

Valentine's Party

Last week we invited a bunch of family and friends ages 2 months to 4 years old to come play and pass out valentines at Tricks Gymnastics. We had a great turn out and everyone had a really good time. The "big" kids got to dance, go in the bouncy house, jump on trampolines and swing in the pendulum swing while the babies sat patiently in their car seats and watched all of the craziness (Savannah sucked on her toes).  I think we will definitely do it again.  Thanks TRICKS!

Goose Attack!

It was a bad idea to begin with... I took the girls out to Negro Bar to take some pictures.  It was really, really windy and super cold.  As we approached the beach Charlotte was crying because the wind was blowing her hair all over the place and the blanket I had thrown over Savannah's car seat was blowing off, and we observed a large flock of geese.  They were peaceful and quiet until they saw us coming.  During the warm months of the year these geese feed off of the left overs from the beach goers.  Apparently it had been a while since they had been fed.  A long while.  They started to honk loudly and come towards us.  I have vast experience feeding geese so I didn't worry.  They would leave us alone after they found out I had no food, right?  Wrong!  They walked right up and bit me on the leg!  Then I threw a stick at it and yelled a bit and then they moved on.  I think Charlotte will forever be freaked out by geese from this incident.  What punks!  It didn't hurt, but what nerve.  Never bite the hand that feeds (or leg for that matter).  We used to come to feed the geese often- but no longer!  And I didn't get any good pictures taken.  I did capture the bite on video, sort of.  You can hear my say, "Stop It!"  The camera work is poor because I was trying to push the girls back behind tree for safety.  Ok, the whole experience is pretty funny.

Sickies


Charlotte has been sick for a week.  Finally Savannah got it, too.  My two little girls just laid around on the couches all Monday.  The worst is definitely over.  Today they both feel a little better.

New Hair Cuts


Last Thursday Charlotte and I said "goodbye" to long hair.  It was long overdue for the both of us.  We love our new do's!

Oh, How I Love to Stand!

Savannah is getting bigger everyday. She is simply the sweetest little baby! She sleeps every night from 11 to 8, loves to suck on her toys and smiles at Charlotte even when she pokes her eyes. She also like to growl back and forth talking with me.  Savannah still has crazy hair.  Her mohawk has grown out into just a big poof on the back of her head and long in the back.  Yes, a little bit like a mullet.  Her latest trick is standing. She has these little stalky legs. I love it!
