milia's 1st dentist visit

milia has been talking about visiting the dentist for weeks. she has been looking forward to getting her teeth cleaned like her big sister and getting a new toothbrush. aubren had her teeth done first so milia could see how easy it was. i prepped her before to not make any sounds so as not to scare milia. so, she laid completely still the whole time and didn't say a word! she was very excited to find out that her 6 year molars had come in. i found out later that she went back to school and announced her new teeth to all her classmates.

aubren stood by milia the whole time, holding her

hand and telling her what a good job she was doing!

aubren is such an incredible big sister!!

happy valentine's day!

milia had fun at her valentine party at school. she loves to be just like her sister. so, when she found out that she had to make valentines for her friends as well she was so excited!

aubren has been asking to eat at the american girl bistro so i surprised the girls and we went there for dinner. they loved that their dolls got to sit right next to them at the table.

milia couldn't believe that her doll got a cup and saucer too! she was thrilled.

trey missed out on the fun so the girls puckered up for him and sent him kisses over the phone.

milia is in heaven surrounded by all the bitty babies! she loves to walk them around the store.

Valentines Party

Today was Aubren's valentine party at school. Being the home room mom, I get to plan her little parties. I have lots of fun doing it and getting the girls involved in the planning and preparation.

They are busy decorating their valentine hats.

Aubie and the best teacher ever, Ms. Fantroy!

Aubren with one of her favorite new friends, Mia!

I love my sweet girl and have so enjoyed being involved at the school during her first year.

Cloverdale EXPLODES!

i bet our weekend was more exciting than yours.

holiday photo shoot.

milia and her new snow white doll that aubren gave her for christmas.

aubren was frustrated through most of the photo shoot

because she could see her friends playing outside.

merry christmas!

Christmas was a wonderful holiday. We enjoyed decorating the tree, having Daddy home for a week, spending time with family, and celebrating Christmas! The girls awoke Christmas morning to the sound of Santa's Ho Ho Ho and his reindeer jingling their bells. Aubren was super excited to receive an American Girl Doll from JJ, who she named Eiffel. And Milia was just as excited to receive Granny's gift, a doll that she named Halle. She thinks it is an American Girl too. She wants to be just like her big sister! Christmas has always been a magical holiday for Mommy and it is so fun to celebrate it with the two of you!

super falcon

Aubren was awarded the "Super Falcon" award for being a student who is always excited to learn, a friend to her classmates, and a wonderful helper to her teacher, Ms. Fantroy. Way to go, kid!
