I took a break from blogging for a while because my time was so limited and this was not a priority. I was having too much fun this summer with my kids, then Kindergarten started and school for summer and life was still busy. I just wanted to pop in and say, Happy Fall! I never thought I'd be excited about Fall because I love warm weather so much, but I was ready for things to slow down (or so I thought they would). I've been more excited about Halloween each year with kids and this year is no different. Our house has been decorated for over a month and we have been enjoying the fall festivities: hay rides, pumpkin farms, crafts, pumpkin muffins, etc. Yesterday I kept Ellie home from school so she could join Summer and I apple picking. Yes, we could go on the weekend, but it would be much more crowded and much more stressful and we wouldn't be able to enjoy it as much as we did yesterday. The orchard was almost all ours and it was a beautiful fall day. The three of us had a lot of fun together and making memories is what is most important!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Summer said her favorite thing was "picking red apples and taking pictures." She loves using my phone to take pictures. I asked her to take one of me on the ladder picking apples and what I got was a shot of my legs and butt. :) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Ellie loved going on the ladder to reach the highest apples. She would toss the apples to me and I would give to Summer to put in the bag. It worked out well and we got a lot of good apples! And, what I loved the most was spending time with my girls and laughing and being silly with them. </div>

I know it's still July and the summertime, but the Nordstrom Sale is a great time to stock up on fall items. I've realized the past couple years that it really does make sense to buy now because a lot of these items rarely go on sale and prices go back up in August. The early cardholder sale is going on right now, but it opens to the public this Friday, the 22nd. </div>

Last summer I bought the girls North Face fleeces and they got so much wear out of them. I bought them a little big and they will be able to wear them again this year, which I'm happy about!</div>

Two weeks ago we were back in Brigantine Beach for our family vacation. We got every year since my husband's aunt and uncle have a house there. We rent it for a week. It's a quieter shore town and really nice to relax and recharge for the week. The beaches are big and always empty, which is so nice. The walk down is only a couple blocks down and since they own the house there are wagons and beach toys and chairs (all of which we don't need to pack). </div>

I thought they were such a treat and they were so easy to make. With Pinterest around you could find a different recipe each time.</div>

I need a new pool bag and I love one that is waterproof. I've seen these often at the pool and am deciding which print to go with. I love the large one for the pool/beach to hold our towels and all of our essentials and the smaller one for a cooler. I've been looking for a cooler that can hold all of our stuff without being too big. This one looks perfect. Plus, the pockets can hold our sunscreen cool.</div>

I took the girls to Nordstrom last week. I had already ordered Summer a pair of Natives, but Ellie needed to try them on. She chose the purple (same as last year). She also picked out a new pair of Havaianas flip flops. The girls know the flip flops can only be worn for the pool or beach. Not even in our backyard. Too much risk for injury. The Natives are their everyday shoe. </div>

It's been in the 80s here recently and going through my summer clothes from the past couple summers I realized I needed new tanks. J.Crew has always been my go-to for summer tank tops.</div>

My favorite purchase lately is this dress. I ran into the mall one day with the girls and saw this dress. It caught my eye and I loved it. I sent my husband a picture and the girls commented how pretty and flowy it was. Later that day I came out of the shower and it was laying on my bed. I was so shocked! I wore it Sunday night to dinner in the city with flats to dress it down. I wish we could have gotten a good picture, but the lighting wasn't great.</div>

Summer told me she wanted Jules pizza for dinner and cupcakes for dessert. We picked up the cupcakes from our favorite local bakery, Velvet Sky.</div>

Summer is so silly and loves making us laugh. She has started talking more recently but still comes up with her own phrases. "Dupe dupe high" for pushing her super duper high on the swing. To express her love for us she will say, "best Mommy!" If I give her a kiss on the lips that also ends up on her chin or above her lip she will grab my face and give me a gentle kiss again to make sure we only kiss on the lips. She loves to wear dresses and twirl just like her big sister. Speaking of her big sis, she loves to do everything Ellie does. Especially when we are taking pictures. If Ellie crosses her feet so does Summer. Recently Summer has started posing herself for pictures with her hands on her hips. It's too cute. Summer will not let me put her hair up. Sometimes she will keep in a bow or a headband for a short period of time. When I show her pictures how she used to wear her hair a year ago she will tell me no. She is still in her crib and since we moved the dresser to the other side of the room she hasn't tried to climb out again. She is still nursing about once a day. </div>

Friday was Ellie's last day of school and her last day of Pre-School. I was really feeling emotional about it because she is going to Kindergarten in the fall. I don't want to think about this until the end of the summer when I need to. I told Ellie that I was sad it was her last day and she replied, "But, Mommy, I will spend all summer with you." I am going to soak up these days! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

I love the side by side pictures from the first day of school to the last:</div>

To celebrate her last day I took the girls to a Farm that we had never been to before. It's known for its ice cream and I wanted to treat them. Ellie convinced me to get the strawberry and I'm still thinking about it. It was so good! We also played a round of mini golf. Summer got a hole in one on the first hole! I wish I had captured her reaction on video. She screamed and jumped up and down. It was really hot that afternoon- in the high 80s and sunny. It was a fun day!</div>

Yesterday was a beautiful sunny day in the 80s. It went from rainy and chilly to summer weather in a week. I'm not complaining- we needed it! Yesterday was a really good day. A preview to what our summer will look like as my girls are now 5 and 3 years old. I started out in the morning painting my nails (I realize if I get a manicure every few weeks I can maintain them myself and change the color when needed). The girls came in and wanted their nails painted, too. Since they are impatient with drying I turned on one of Ellie's favorite songs, "Uma Thurman", and we danced while shaking our hands to dry. It was quite a funny scene.</div>

After dropping Ellie at school Summer and I went to Corner Bakery since I hadn't eaten breakfast yet. She is always so fun to hang out with. I really have enjoyed our one on one time together when Ellie has been in school this year. Overnight she started talking in complete sentences and her new phrases at the moment are "nothing" and "actually, yes" and "actually, no." But, in the cutest voice, of course. She is always making me smile. Next door is a nail salon and I was thinking we didn't have too much time that morning and I really needed a pedicure so I decided to take Summer with me for one. I was surprised by how good she was. She sat next to me the entire time and hardly made a peep.</div>

We picked up Ellie a little early from school because they had 12:00 hair appointments. Summer did great sitting on my lap, but was so serious and not loving it. Ellie was the perfect client. They both got about 3 inches off! Healthy for the summertime.</div>

We went home to use Summer's new sprinkler, but I couldn't get it to work so we just used the hose. As I was spraying them (and they were so excited) Ellie said to me, "Mommy, if you don't get wet you aren't having fun." So, I put on my bathing suit and they sprayed me with the freezing cold water. We had a lot of laughs. Then, the girls had lunch and Popsicles outside while I got some stuff done in the house. </div>

As I've said many times becoming a Mom was the best thing that ever happened to me. The girls have made me a better person. I'm happier than I've ever been in my life and I love life more now that they are in it. I am more patient, loving, forgiving and overall more positive because of my girls. With motherhood comes tantrums, sleepless nights, whining and crying, and the girls hitting me or each other. It's not easy! Recently there have been a couple times when Ellie just does not listen to me at all and will refuse to do something when I ask her to, which makes it extremely difficult and frustrating when we are trying to get out of the door for school in the morning. Twice she has hit me and it really upset me- not actually because she hit me, but because I didn't know how to help her. As I always do during a tantrum, I told her I am here for a hug when she is ready. It just made me really sad that I didn't know what to do to calm her down. Both times I told her later in the day that we are not allowed to hit anyone and when she hits me it really hurts and makes me really sad. She seems really apologetic and after the tantrum clings to my side and tells me how much she loves me. These situations are very challenging, but it's so important that we (her and I and my husband and I) find ways to help her express her feelings in a better way. One thing I haven't done in a while is have a date with just Ellie. I think both girls need that and I want to do that as soon as I'm able to with my schedule. I also promised her that her Daddy and I would take just her to buy her a new bike (her big birthday present) and she is excited for that time with us. Summer also has a new thing where when she gets upset she sits down, crosses her arms and pouts. It's actually pretty cute. However, 80% of the time they are great listeners and very helpful and fun to be around!</div>

My Mother's Day gift to myself was a massage Saturday evening. It was so nice and relaxing. Afterwards, I ate at my favorite sushi restaurant. Sunday we went early to my favorite brunch spot, Cake. They opened at 10, but they do not take reservations so we knew we had to get in line early. We were second in line and as they opened the line was down the block. The food did not disappoint (my favorite is their French toast). It was delicious and filled me up till dinner. After breakfast we walked to the playground to let the girls burn off some energy. Plus, today was the first day it hasn't rained in over a week. We missed being outside! This afternoon I had to get some cleaning and wash done and I went to the plant store for our new planters on our porch. We ended our night with dinner at my parents with my brother and his family. </div>

Friday Summer and I spent the day together while Ellie was at lunch bunch. We went to my new favorite coffee shop for lunch and sat outside since it was beautiful out. Summer looked so cute I had to get a picture. She loves wearing her sunglasses. This is one of my new favorite Matilda Jane dresses. </div>

Friday night we had my mother in law come babysit so we could attend a charity event for Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. I had previously mentioned that a few Philadelphia Eagles would be there and I was most excited to meet Brian Westbrook. It was such a fun night for a great cause. Here are a few pictures.</div>

Me going for my long run this afternoon. It wasn't a good run at all. I had a little too much fun this weekend and I was exhausted, but had to do it anyway. It was a tough 8.5 miles. I had to stop a mile from my house on a street with no shade for a rest and I saw a guy on his lawn. I asked him for a glass of water and he gave me a cold bottle. I was very thankful! This evening I dropped off a gift card to Dunkin Donuts as a thank you gift. </div>

I love these Oakley sunglasses- they are a must in sunny weather. I love that they don't slip down my nose when I sweat. I bought them a year ago from Athleta, but <a href="https://api.shopstyle.com/action/apiVisitRetailer?id=513542691&pid=uid281-25338909-59">this pair</a> is a similar style. </div>

First, my husband took this picture last night as Ellie got down on the floor to do push-ups with me before bedtime. Then, I did the plank and both girls did it with me. I love when they join me! I love how Summer's hands are folded just like mine. </div>

I just noticed my favorite handbag is now on sale. I have it in black and love it, but am thinking about the light gray for spring. The handles are starting to fray on mine. It's been well loved!</div>

Tonight Nick and I are going to a charity event for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. I'm really excited because former Philadelphia Eagles players will be there, including my favorite, Brian Westbrook! I'm hoping to get a picture with him. Summer and I are doing errands today while Ellie is at school and lunch bunch. Hoping to be productive! Have a great weekend!</div>

On Sunday we celebrated her birthday with family and friends at our local YMCA. She had a princess party. Ellie wore a new Elsa dress I had gotten from the Disney store last summer and saved for a special occasion (<a href="https://api.shopstyle.com/action/apiVisitRetailer?id=504185868&pid=uid281-25338909-59">this one</a> is similar). She loved it! Summer also wore an Elsa dress and her girl friends also dressed in costume. Her boy cousins wore super hero outfits.<br />

She told me she was wishing for a "wagon." This has been on her wish list for a year now. I think we should cave and just buy it for her. However, she is getting a new bike for her birthday!<br />

Last Friday I took the girls into the city to see the musical, Freckleface Strawberry, at the Walnut Street Theatre. We have been taking Ellie the past couple years for her birthday and this year I took Summer, too, now that she is almost 3. The girls were so excited and Summer kept calling it the "movies." I wasn't sure how she would react to the hour long show since she is not a fan of television or movies, but they both surprised me and sat in their seats the entire time. They clapped after each segment and were captivated. The show was great. I enjoyed it, too, and even more so than the previous years. There was lots of singing and dancing and the storyline was great. It was about being happy with who you are and not comparing yourself to other people. Everyone is different and that is what makes each of us special. </div>

It is a rainy day today, but the girls and I are heading out shortly for pink manicures, lunch, then swimming. I gave Ellie a list of things we could do inside today and she chose swimming at our gym. I recently ordered these <a href="https://api.shopstyle.com/action/apiVisitRetailer?id=469607946&pid=uid281-25338909-59">goggles</a> for her that she will finally get to try out. Tonight we are going to dinner at Jules Pizza (her choice) and cake for dessert!</div>

Last Friday Ellie did lunch bunch at school and Summer and I took a trip to King of Prussia mall. I had to return a pair of shoes at Nordstrom and I wanted to go to Athleta. We ended up staying only in Nordstrom. Summer napped in her stroller for an hour (she was up a lot the night before), then woke up very happy. She helped me try on shoes and enjoyed a lollipop. Ellie was also up the night before so I decided to put her in lunch bunch so that she would be happy with friends instead of cranky with me!</div>

On Saturday morning I had lacrosse in the pouring rain. Then, it cleared up for Ellie's first lacrosse session that afternoon. I don't know who was more excited- her or me. She actually said she didn't want to do it, but I told her how I played and how much fun it is and that she had no idea what it was. As soon as we got there she was excited and had fun for the entire hour. The coaches are great and taught them skills (cradling today) while playing games. </div>

After lacrosse we played at the playground, then went to hang out with cousins for a while, which was so nice since we haven't seen them in a while. The girls were starving when we left and it was dinner time so we stopped for pizza and frozen yogurt before heading home. </div>

Sunday morning I went to Whole Foods for breakfast (fruit, oatmeal and coffee) and happened to run into my Mom who was also grabbing something to eat before the gym. So, we got a table and had breakfast together, which was so nice and a great start to my Sunday. I was picking up ingredients for dinner. It is a crockpot dish (<a href="http://www.skinnytaste.com/crock-pot-maple-dijon-chicken-drumsticks/">Skinnytaste Maple Dijon Chicken Drumsticks</a>) and was really good! In the later afternoon we all went to the gym. I needed to get in a run since it was so cold and windy and I didn't want to run outside. My husband took the girls swimming. I can't believe I was able to run for an hour on the treadmill and I got in a 7 mile run. I felt great, too. </div>

I did get my run in yesterday afternoon even though I would much rather have taken a nap. I was so tired even as I ran, but I did my 3.5 mile loop. Glad I got it done! We went to my in-laws first to see family and the girls did a little egg hunt in their house. Then, we went to my parents for dinner and an egg hunt with their cousins. My brother put out a ton of eggs all over my parents backyard. The kids had a blast filling their bags. Just like every other kid my girls were a little crazy yesterday with a sugar high. They don't normally eat sweets so their little bodies weren't used to it. But, it was a special occasion!</div>

I used to wear these all the time when I was a kid and in High School. I love that they are coming back into style! I am considering ordering the grey or white. They are men's sizes so it is recommended you size down.</div>

I hope everyone is having a fun morning! For the past two hours the girls have been hiding eggs for my husband and I and reversing the roles. We've done an egg hunt in every room in our house. It was really a lot of fun and we had a lot of laughs. This morning Ellie woke at 6:30 and came into my bed at 7. We woke Summer and they were excited to go downstairs. Ellie told us she saw the Easter Bunny and he was white and wearing flip flops. She also said she saw him peek in at her when she was sleeping ("one eye was open"). Love it! We have video of them jumping up and down and shrieking in excitement before heading downstairs. Summer could not believe she found an egg in the paper towels. Ellie was ecstatic when she found her Easter basket behind the couch. She had to open it up right away. We let them have a few pieces of chocolate then, but I also caught Summer walking upstairs with a chocolate bunny behind her back. She had a mischevious smile on her face. I followed her upstairs where she sat in her room and started to open the bunny. She was surprised to see me and asked me to go away.... She is my little sneaky girl! </div>

Saturday afternoon we dyed eggs. I used Wilton icing colors that I had on hand. Each cup contained 3/4 cup water, a tablespoon of vinegar, and desired color. The colors were so vibrant. </div>

If you follow me on Instagram you saw our <a href="http://yesterfood.blogspot.com/2014/04/peeps-houses.html">peep houses</a>. I had mentioned in a previous post that I wanted to try making our own. The Pinterest version looked so cute! I had some leftover pink icing in the freezer so I thawed it out and bought the candy. Ellie's house collapsed and Summer's survived, but barely. It looks nothing like my inspiration. A Pinterest fail for sure! Plus, it was a pain in the butt and I ended up doing it myself. It was a good laugh for sure!</div>

I found these bunnies in the dollar section of <a href="http://www.target.com/">Target</a>. Ellie glued cotton balls on them and I punched holes and strung them to make this super cute banner. The white bunny is also from the dollar section of Target and the silver ones from Home Goods. </div>

We are going to my in-laws this afternoon, then to my parents for dinner and an egg hunt with cousins. I'm also planning on getting in a run this morning. Hope you have a great day!</div>

I had to get a few pictures of the girls with these gorgeous pink trees in the front of our house. I lifted them up and put them in the tree for a mini photo shoot. I didn't get a great one of Summer so I'll have to do this again before the buds change color.<br />

Last Sunday wasn't just the first day of spring, but also my Mom's birthday. We went to dinner at my parents night where my Mom cooked her annual Irish dinner for all of us. I got her one of these water bottles that I love. I have this one and use it all the time. It will be perfect on hot days this summer. They are expensive for a bottle, but so worth it. I also got one for my best friend's birthday.<br />

These are my favorite shoes for kids and great for the playground in warm weather because they are so breathable. I bought the aqua for Ellie and pink for Summer this year.</div>

A couple weekends ago my parents took Ellie and her cousins to see Zootopia. Summer felt left out so I decided to take her, too, knowing that she wouldn't last the entire movie so I could leave early with her. She was so excited for the movie and sat through and hour before declaring she was ready to go bye bye. It was such a cute movie and I want to see the rest of it when it comes to On Demand. </div>

I'm happy to say that Summer is fully potty trained during the day. She is still in a diaper at nighttime since she isn't waking up dry and she is still in the crib. I can't believe how quickly she picked up the potty training and rarely has an accident. She even goes on the big toilets, which is so convenient. We are very proud of her!</div>

We are in the middle of potty training bootcamp with Summer. Actually, after yesterday I could say that I think she potty trained in one day. She had one accident early yesterday morning before figuring out that she could hold it and when she needed to go. From that point on, as I reminded her to "tell Mommy if you have to go pee pee or poopie!" she went every single time in her potty. Poop was a little harder to do the first time. I realized she was trying to go and we took a bath to help relax her, then about a half hour later she went. Sorry if this is TMI, but it's typical in motherhood! Then, last night when we were all upstairs getting ready for bed she went into the bathroom and went potty (pee) all by herself. She came and got me and showed me. We were all so excited and so proud of her. I tried potty training her about 10 months ago and it backfired so I put her back in to diapers. She wasn't able to communicate at that time and that was the biggest issue. Now she tells me when she has to go. I wanted to get her trained before the warm weather and before summer time (so no swim diapers). </div>

Summer and I were alone yesterday. My mother in law took Ellie to gymnastics in the morning and out the rest of the day. Summer and I painted, did Easter crafts, colored Barbie in a coloring book, read a ton of books, played with Magna tiles and dollhouse. It was a fun, but exhausting day! I let her go on the iPad later in the afternoon and I browsed online so we each got a break! Here are my current favorites:</div>

We finally had a warm day (in the 50s) yesterday and I spent all day outside. It was great! I went for a 6 mile run in the morning (in shorts and a tank top!). Then, we met my Mom, sister in law and cousins at the playground for over 2 hours. We ended our night with a pizza dinner at my parents. A perfect day! On Saturday the girls met Elsa. On the way into the store they were singing "Let It Go" and dancing. As soon as Summer walked up to Elsa she got scared and hung onto me. Luckily, she still took a picture since her big sis was with her. </div>

I hosted my first Matilda Jane show a few weeks ago and it was so worth it! I ended up with some nice discounts, thanks to my friends! I am loving the new spring collection- this is my favorite clothing line for the girls (if you haven't noticed in all of my pictures). It's just so fun and girly and my girls love twirling! Here are two new dresses I bought for them and they will probably be worn for Easter:</div>

Lately the girls have been into playing house with their princess dolls. They love putting them in the "pool" (a big bowl of water). I found these Barbie dolls that are for water play and thought they would be perfect. They also each got a new Disney doll- Summer got her own "ella" (Cinderella) and Ellie got Tiana (Princess and the Frog). I remember growing up my Mom always had a special Valentine's dinner and wrapped a few gifts for each of us with a small piece of chocolate. I am continuing the tradition with my kids. </div>

The girls and I made these adorable handprint butterflies on canvases for their grandparents. They came out so cute and I plan to frame it. Last year we did the <a href="http://www.lusciouslifeanddecor.com/2015/02/weekend-recap-valentines-day.html">flamingo handprints</a>.<br />

I insisted he not buy me roses this year. I would much more prefer a different kind of flower since roses are honestly not my favorite. He chose well and got me these:</div>

Tonight we went to my parents for dinner and I made a cake for dessert- a heart shaped cake- with my favorite <a href="http://www.glorioustreats.com/2011/08/american-buttercream-frosting-recipe.html">homemade icing recipe</a>. The girls helped me ice the cake. This is only my second time ever making a cake (the first for the girls' Frozen party last year) and this time I didn't freeze the cake overnight, but just let it cool for about an hour before icing it. I dyed a second batch of icing to make the pink heart and top a half dozen cupcakes I made in addition.</div>

Christmas Eve we do a yearly tradition of the Macy's light show, Reading Terminal shopping, and lunch. The weather was warm this year (record breaking)- in the 60s and 70s on Christmas Day. Walking around the city without jackets was a nice change! Christmas Eve night we went to my husband's aunt and uncle's house for dinner and to see his side of the family.</div>

Christmas Eve I was up until 2:00 in the morning wrapping. Next year I will definitely start wrapping earlier in the week! I had to do the girls' gifts and set them up under the tree (the fun part), our parents gifts, write a note from Santa, and clean up. I also took a few pictures before going to bed. </div>

Ellie got the Merida dress and doll she asked Santa for, as well as everything mentioned in this post. Summer also got Elsa and Anna, and she loved the <a href="http://api.shopstyle.com/action/apiVisitRetailer?id=495772243&pid=uid281-25338909-59">tutu</a> Santa brought. We gave her friend, Frankie, the same one and as she opened it she exclaimed, "Frankie!" She took off her pants and put it on immediately, as well as a crown (on backwards!). After opening every gift Summer said, "Wow!" then posed with the item by saying, "Cheese!" It was adorable. Ellie loved all of her gifts and had a constant smile on her face. She was a pro at unwrapping each gift. Santa left a <a href="http://api.shopstyle.com/action/apiVisitRetailer?id=445969445&pid=uid281-25338909-59">pink Jellycat bunny</a> on her pile and she gave her the biggest hug. She has been asking for one for at least a year ever since my sister gave Summer one. Santa finally caved and brought her one, too. The girls loved their Play Doh sets and have played with it everyday. They were both excited to receive more <a href="http://api.shopstyle.com/action/apiVisitRetailer?id=499090599&pid=uid281-25338909-59">Magiclips</a> and a new princess tent. </div>

Nick and I recently bought a new Mac desktop, which was our big gift to ourselves. We needed to replace our five year old Mac. We still exchanged a few gifts and filled our stockings. He bought me <a href="http://api.shopstyle.com/action/apiVisitRetailer?id=293470721&pid=uid281-25338909-59">these slippers</a> from J.Crew, which I love, but I need a bigger size. He also gave me <a href="http://api.shopstyle.com/action/apiVisitRetailer?id=498368664&pid=uid281-25338909-59">J.Crew pajamas</a> and my favorite <a href="http://api.shopstyle.com/action/apiVisitRetailer?id=438658946&pid=uid281-25338909-59">socks</a>, <a href="http://api.shopstyle.com/action/apiVisitRetailer?id=438778945&pid=uid281-25338909-59">running socks</a> and new headphones I had asked for and new <a href="http://api.shopstyle.com/action/apiVisitRetailer?id=74643006&pid=uid281-25338909-59">Ugg boots</a> to replace the ones I have currently. I had bought myself new perfume and dropped it in my stocking because I know my husband never fills it. Every year I laugh because there is only one or two things in my stocking so I will usually help him out. :) I bought him these <a href="http://api.shopstyle.com/action/apiVisitRetailer?id=498503829&pid=uid281-25338909-59">Sorel boots</a>, a <a href="http://api.shopstyle.com/action/apiVisitRetailer?id=492212468&pid=uid281-25338909-59">griddle</a>, and a <a href="http://api.shopstyle.com/action/apiVisitRetailer?id=502553396&pid=uid281-25338909-59">running top</a> plus a few more things in his stocking.</div>

We had breakfast at my parents, then visited my inlaws and went back to my parents for Christmas dinner of filet roast, which was cooked perfectly and so delicious. I haven't had meat in a long time and this was so worth the wait. This was the first year we my parents got a picture with all the kids without one of them crying. A Christmas miracle! Ellie and Summer are so lucky to have four cousins who are also their best friends. The oldest, Maeve, is 8 and she still plays so well with Ellie despite their 4 year age difference. </div>

Ellie had her Christmas concert on Monday and it was so adorable. Watching her sing all the words from each song and do all of the hand movements was just too cute. I was so proud of her! Throughout the concert she would look up at me with a huge smile on her face and wave. It made my heart melt knowing she was having fun up on stage. Here are a few pictures from that morning:</div>

We saw Santa last week and the only way for Summer to be a part of the picture was for me to join. I love crying Santa photos, but I don't want to scar her. So, I joined and sat next to Santa. It was a cute photo. After Santa we found those animals that you can ride on in the mall. Ellie really wanted to do it so we did and it was hilarious. I have video of her crashing into the fence and I was laughing so hard I was crying. After that I got on with her. We ended our mall trip with a ride on the carousel.</div>

We made sugar cookies over the weekend with homemade icing. The cookies may not look pretty (decorated by the girls), but they are delicious! Soft and chewy. I am making a couple more kinds today and will hand them out with the girls to our neighbors. The girls used the cookie cutters and I put the icing in bags for them to decorate along with sprinkles and mini m&ms.</div>

This morning we are meeting friends for coffee, then a few errands and I am dropping my Santa gifts off for the family I bought for at my Mom's school. She also has her annual Christmas party so we are going to that. We are enjoying the festive season, and hope you are, too!</div>

Everything shown above is what the girls are getting in their stockings, as well as bubble wands, princess wands, and a few other small things. The nail polish will be a hit- they love getting their nails painted. Summer is getting a glitter purple and Ellie, a glitter pink. I actually got two sparkly crowns for each of them because Claire's was having a sale the day I bought them. We can never have too many crowns, especially since I seem to always step on them (I'm lucky if I'm wearing socks- those things hurt!).<br />

Ellie asked Santa for a Merida doll and dress. Merida is the character from Brave. Summer, continuing her obsession with Frozen, is asking for Elsa and Anna. She initially also was asking for a baby, but has since crossed that off her list. I'm happy about that since we already have enough baby dolls! I like their short, simple list. I know it won't always be like that. The photo above is what the girls are getting under the tree this year. I really tried to lighten the present load this year and not overwhelm the girls with too many gifts. The castle is a joint gift and will have a big bow on it Christmas morning. My sister had gotten this same gift a couple years ago and they loved it. It was so well loved that it recently ripped so Santa is replacing it. The girls are also getting new markers and crayons and tutus. I bought <a href="http://taylorjoelle.com/collections/skirts/products/pink-tutu-skirt">this one</a> for Ellie (during their Black Friday sale) and <a href="http://www.gymboree.com/shop/item/toddler-girls-sparkle-tutu-140143914">this one</a> for Summer.<br />
<br />
I also just got a family with three kids that I will be buying for so I need to get started! The ages are a 5 month baby girl, 3 year old boy, and a 6 year old girl. Thank goodness for Amazon Prime!<br />

Happy Shopping!<br />

On Friday Ellie stayed for a longer day at school so Summer and I went shopping.<br />
Summer was asking for a muffie as soon as we dropped Ellie at school. She loves the pumpkin muffies from Panera (I just bought a pan to make them at home). Since it was Friday I treated both of us to one.<br />

We stopped by to wave to Santa and he was nice enough to give her a few things. She was so happy!<br />

I gave Summer a lollipop in Hanna Anderson and she found a spot in the store window to hang out in. Five minutes later she was in the stroller passed out and still holding her pop. So cute and I was able to go into Lululemon and shop and try on clothes while she was sleeping. </div>

Friday night we went to our local tree lighting. We ended the night with ice cream. Summer is telling Nick that she can't smile because she has ice cream in her mouth. Impossible to get all of us smiling at the same time!<br />

Saturday my in laws took the girls for the entire afternoon and Nick and I went shopping. It was so nice to have time to do this together. I have been doing most of the shopping online (why do all of the packages have to come when my husband is at home??). I think we are done with the girls and I just have to get a few more things for family gifts. I really tried not to go overboard this year with playing Santa. I will write another post with their wishlists and mine, too! Nick and I also got a few more things for our yard. He has been wanting an inflatable for years and we finally got a Santa so he is happy. I picked out two reindeer with lights for our front yard. I am loving our street this year. Everyone has really stepped up with Christmas decorations and the girls love it! We were even able to get an early dinner just the two of us.<br />
The girls are checking out our new Santa: <br />

Saturday night we built our first fire. The girls snuggled on the couch and watched Elsa and Anna videos on You Tube (a special treat). We also put on the Polar Express. I went out to get marshmallows and we roasted them, too. It was a fun family night. </div>

This morning I went for a run, then we all went to a local Farm for a hayride and pictures with Santa. We also got our tree. I was practicing using my camera (I've been getting lessons) in manual mode and forgot to switch it to Auto for a family picture so it didn't turn out well at all since the sun was in front of us. The hayride was such a cute idea. It was decorated for the Holidays, we sang Christmas songs and they took us around the farm to a gazebo where Santa was waiting where we were able to take pictures with him.<br />
