embarrassing mom

When I dropped Ava off at school one morning (running a little late) she took off her boots and I slid her shoes on to keep her moving. As I slid on her shoe, I whispered, "The slipper fits, you must be Cinderella!" We do this all the time at home and she smiles and giggles and gives me a big hug. Well, when I did that at school, she hushed me and whispered, "Mom, you can't say that at school, only at home." ...I have now earned the title of "The Embarrassing Mom."

winter fun

The girls had fun in the snow we got last week.
I took them for a little sled ride in the front yard.

Zoe's Birthday Party

The cake. Yes, I even made it myself :)

Happy birthday to you! Yay!

The pinata was a big hit! Not literally though...now they make pinatas that open with the pull of a string. One secret ribbon opens the trap door...and then...candy, candy, CANDY!!! Which was the theme of the party because it is one of Zoe's true loves.

CANDY!!!!!

After every one left the party, Zoe couldn't stop singing "Happy Birthday" to herself. I remember Ava did the same after her 2nd birthday too. :) I love how she walks away shaking her head at me at the end of the video. ;)
