Two little Girlies

The same week Molly started preschool she also started her new ballet class. She is one of the younger ones, but LOVES ballet so much. We got her all new ballet clothes and she was so excited to go see Miss Sheila again. Maggie wants to be just like Molly and as you can see in the following pictures try to do everything Molly is doing. How sweet is that. They sure love each other and I am so happy! We had  a very busy week the busiest yet but now it will all slow down a little and get in a good routine.

 I told Molly to do some poses and she really got into it!!

 This past week was Clints Birthday and Molly has been dying for it to get here since hers comes next and she needed a good excuse to make cupcakes too! We made cupcakes for his class-blue and green with chocolate frosting and sprinkles.  Maggie helped too with putting stuff in then she took a nap and it was Mol and I for the majority of our baking party. She loved putting the sprinkles on and did it so specifically and kept saying "O my gosh, Daddy is going to be so excited" "Daddy is so gonna love these mom" "I think the kids are going to be so happy, huh Mom?" Once Mag woke up we were at the end and just finishing up and she decided to taste the frosting. It was over after that they were so into it I said what the heck and let them at it. They ate a ton of chocolate frosting and went to the tub immediately following.

 Molly's late night snack-chocolate pudding. I like to let her stay up a little later some times and we have a little treat and chat. One of my favorite things ever!

1st day of Preschool....

Miss Molly J. started Preschool today!!!!! I can harldy believe this time has already come, this means she is "big" now and I don't quite know how I feel about it. I was so so excited for her to start and she was busting at the seams to " meet friends and learn lots and lots, and not sit by boys" so how could I not be excited...

I was pumped up until I dropped her off then I cried a little and then started to laugh because sweet little Maggie burst into tears when Miss Debbie shut the car door and Molly went with the other kids and we drove away. She cried all the way home and then I had to console her for a good ten minutes and she settled down while watching Mickey and eating Cheetos... It was the first time we have actually left Molly somewhere besides like friends or grandma's houses. It was her best bud and we were leaving her behind. It was so sad, yet comical really.... 

I was so anxious to pick her up the time didn't pass quick enough. When we did pick her up she was so excited and told us all about it she "played with friends, colored, painted, did stickers, played choo-choo, sang songs, played with babies, played store, used her flower cubbie, and Miss Debbie was so so nice" so I would call her first day a huge success and she said she wants to go back lots and lots...Can't wait to see what this year brings for her! Way to go Molly!!!!

Molly picked her favorite PANCAKES for her big day breakfast!

 My baby girl, she will always be my baby I guess...

 Piggy Tails-check, Butterfly shirt-check, Favorite new shoes-check, Cupcake necklace-check..Ready to Rock!

 Her Preschool bag her teacher gave all the kids instead of them using back packs

 Maggie just followed her around all morning and after she got home too!

 I would call this "Preschool Super Heros" first day a huge success!!

 

We made this for her teacher for the first day of school, now Molly wants to make a present for every day!

Nursery

I can hardly believe Maggie is already in Nursery! I knew she would have a hard time with it, but couldn't imagine just how hard. I left her for like 10 minutes the first week and she cried so hard they had to bring her to me. The next week she was distracted so I left her and same thing. (we took her a few weeks before she was "legal" since we teach primary and she distracting to the kids) So the week when she was actually suppose to be in there I decided not even to try to leave. She pretty much just sat on my lap the whole time, it was so sad. She was nervous I would leave her so she kept grips on  me. So needless to say, I guess I get to go to Nursery too. Today I was helping in there and took a little boy potty and she totally FREAKED OUT, she wouldn't let me put her down for the last hour! She has been better about me leaving her with Grandma's and Clint, but Nursery or anything else FORGET IT!! Lets hope its a phase she will grow out of, but I don't see that happening any time soon. For now we will just go to Nursery together and play with the toys and eat snacks!

Here is my two girlies both on their first day of Nursery!!

Cousins

This past weekend Clints sisters came down with their kids Zach and Mya. Molly and Mya are best friends and talk about each other all the time. I can't tell Molly, Mya is coming until she is on her way down or else I don't hear the end of it for days. They all played fairly well together. Maggie may be littler, but she doesn't let that stop her and keeps up pretty well. It was a very fun, yet exhausting weekend to say the least, but we can't wait to do it again...

We spent as much time outside as possible to keep these little kids busy.. Lots of time in their diapers/underwear/naked since it was so hot outside...

.

 We took a trip to the splash pad and the carousel, Molly had been before, but not Maggie to the one in town so that was  must they went on 3 times and still wanted more. We need to go back-maybe this week!

 I love this picture...captures her to the "t"

Ice Cream Cones Anyone?

 Maggie

We then decided to try "Anti Gravity" out and since they loved it so much the first time we went back a few days later. We all jumped and were totally beat by the end. It sure wore my kids out and Molly keeps asking to go back. She loved it more than I thought she would cuz she is a little timid about bounce houses and such. She has always loved tramps so I wasn't too concerned. Maggie on the other hand is  a nut and can climb up the steepest things and has absolutely NO fear. She is a CRAZY!!!!!!! Zach was all over the place and I didn't seem to get a picture of him....OOPS!
