“I will melt all the popsicles if you don’t go to bed.”

April 17, 2013

Today was one of those days.
comfy target tee. ae jeans. target flip flops.
air dried curly hair up in a pony with a headband.
Nap time wasn’t happening as smoothly as I was hoping needing…
I threatened to melt all the popsicles if they didn’t nap…………….
it was a long morning.. felt like mom of the year here.
stash that one away in your bag of mom threats.
You would think by now I would have learned to think twice before I make ‘threats’…
They hold onto these things..and then use them against each other. Pretty sure tomorrow when sophie’s mad at sienna she’ll threaten to melt her popsicles. haha.
Not one of my finest moments.

Once before Christmas we made the mistake of “joking” that if they were naughty,
Santa gives reindeer poop instead of toys. (?)
For the next month we kept hearing it come up in conversation about this very serious issue of reindeer poop. scarred for life. it STILL comes up.. they are planning ahead.

The other day we forced spring to come by having a picnic at the park…
and it worked! 

We’ve been enjoying the sunshine here in Pennsylvania.
I always miss atlanta during the winter here…
but as soon as it’s spring I love PA again!

QUOTE OF THE WEEK – “Noo sienna… we don’t play zombies.”
THANK YOU boy cousins for that one…….. ;) haha.

HEART MELTING MOMENTS-
I love sophie’s doodles. I have to control myself from framing every single one.
Just every other will be fine. ;)
What I Wore – Top: Kohl’s. Jeans: AE. Sandals: Target. Necklace: Molly Suzanne.
Love Molly of Stilettos and Diapers! You should stop by and say hi. and check out her shop!
This little anchor necklace is my go-to when I’m running out the door :) Simple and sweet.
LIFE:
Reminder: Next time do not tell girls about going to grandma’s house in the summer, till the DAY BEFORE. I’ve been asked at least once an hour, since then, if it’s time to go to grandmas… Sienna: “eyeee MISS gwandma….”

Pretty much a weekly occurrence ben and I will be hugging
then simultaneously fake snore and laugh at ourselves.
sleepy much?

Was at the park having a picnic with our crew.
Someone asked us “those all yours? you’re done right?! ::wink::”
Dear sweet random grandpa, Yes they are all ours. and no.
Our life is crazy but it’s our crazy. and it’s nice. :)

FAVORITE PART OF MY DAY-  after I put the girls down for their naps…
I snuggle with this guy and he usually falls asleep for a good chunk.
Sometimes I pull myself away to get stuff done…
but most of the time I decide everything can wait.
He’s only gonna be this tiny and round for so long…

    Oh, I can’t get enough of your little guy! He just has the cutest smile. I’m also totally jealous of the gorgeous green grass and trees you have there – our snow is JUST leaving here in Alberta! I’m SO ready for spring. :) Enjoy the rest of your week!

    I can just hear Sophie and Sienna whispering about being good or… reindeer poop! If anything your “threats” make a good story.
