Determined

Zoie is a determined girl to get what she wants. She knows how to climb up onto the kitchen counters to find snacks. Oaklee is deciding that she needs to catch up to Zoie. She has been getting up on her hands and knees. One of these days she'll start crawling.

Fashionista

 Oaklee had some assistance with her attire today. Zoie insisted that baby Oaklee wear this fantastic bow on top of her hoodie along with some sparkly red shoes. Zoie was pretty pleased with her fashion designing skills.

Janu-what?

It was the perfect day for a walk...at the end of January!

You Make Me Smile!

Oh my sweet Oaklee. My heart is so happy! Thank you for being in our family!

Honor Roll

These boys are always impressing me. I am so happy to be their mother. They have been working hard and earning good grades. They brought home some fun arts and crafts from school as well. Landon did the water color painting and Ethan made a fun bumblebee.

Dream Come True!

Way back in 2007, when I started my blog, I had envisioned printing it into books. My dream has finally come true! This is what I have wanted more than ANYTHING for the last 10 years! I have 5 books printed thanks to Kendall and his mom who gave this to me as a Christmas gift. I am beyond happy! I have about 6 more to print off and then I can continue year after year. Yay!

Bows!

These beauties are hard to resist!

Cute Girls

Kids are so cute. Sadie was being adorable and decided that she needed to nurse her baby troll. She also has been interested in making LEGO creations. 

Zoie thinks she always needs to have my phone to watch shows on, and she fell asleep on the comfy rocking chair while watching a show. 

 

Celebrating Brayden's Birthday

We got to celebrate our little cousin's 2nd birthday. The ice cream cake tasted amazing!

Smile!

 

Beautiful Lengths

I get to mark this off of my list of things I have wanted to do. I grew out my hair long enough to donate! I cut off a foot! I sent it into Beautiful Lengths through Pantene. Pretty cool, but I think I am going to miss my long hair. After all of these years, I finally figured out how to french braid my own hair. Ha ha! Oh. I also cut my hair myself using this new hair cutting tool I got for Christmas called a Creaclip. Two things I have never done before: donate my hair, and give myself  my own hair cut. 

"Get Back Up Again!"

This troll toy has a button on its hand; when you push it, it sings. Zoie carries is around with her holding it up to her ear and listens to it over and over and over again. She loves to sing along with it now. She is always shouting (singing) with this troll. 

Old Mother Hubbard

Check out what Lisa and I found in her cupboard! The Compton's house seriously has spacious storage space in the kitchen. I can't believe two kids could fit inside. 

Mmmm!

Zoie asks for "Mmmm!" while pointing to her lips nearly every time I am doing my makeup. This means that she wants to wear lip gloss. Today, she also wanted blush and mascara. She was so excited that we had to take some selfies. She is great. I just love her to pieces.
