Snapshots

Ollie missed his mom and dad while we were away!

love that this is one of our little guy's favorite nap spots

Ella sits for hours playing with little people. This was Belle's birthday party.

One of the girls favorite games to play together since our trip Disney is Princess Meet and Greet. In this picture, Abby was Cinderella. Ella would run over to her and say, "Hi Cinderella! Take picture?"  I take their picture together. Then, Ella would wave and say, "Nice to meet you!"

Then, they took a selfie.

Some days just call us to be flexible and go with the flow (instead of pull my hair out). After an unexpected trip to motor vehicle with two little ones, I was thankful for the treat of giftcards that we used for a rewarding (and refreshing) afternoon date together.

Ella had a fever and was fast asleep on the couch. Abby was putting on her cooking show for a captive audience while I cooked dinner.

Some mornings just come too quickly. This was what our vacation recovery looked like the first day back.  Joe woke up early with Abby and Ollie then "rested" on the couch for a bit. I woke up to see the three of them all nestled in!
