Sneak peak...so excited

We had a photo session on Tuesday with an amazing photographer, J. Selander. 
She put a sneak peak up on her blog. 
Go take a look and please leave a comment. 




A great pair

Eleanor has been asking to 'model' again since last Saturday at the church brunch.  Who am I to disappoint???
I purchased these two tops from Gymboree today and knew I had the perfect fabrics to match! An hour later, two completed outfits! 
She loves the outfits and I do too. 
She is becoming quite the model, don't you think?

I pledge allegiance to the flag....

Eleanor & Norah led the pledge of allegiance at the Veteran's Honor Flight Dinner last night.  I was not able to make it, but hear they did a great job. All Eleanor kept telling me this morning was that she ate her roast beef AND some of Norahs!

Lucy Jane is THREE...

Lucy's big day started off with a fashion show at church with Eleanor and Sadie. The girls did a great job and had such a fun time. Before we left for church I was telling the girls to walk slowly and they could pose if they wanted to. Eleanor said, "You mean like you do in the dressing room when you are trying on clothes?" Um, sure!
Here is the birthday girl with all of her presents. 
How old are you???

A cheerleader doll from Grandma Alice & Grandpa Jim that looks like Lucy!
A ice princess sleeping bag from Grandma Patti & Grandpa Doug. 
Here Lucy is with her best friend, Kyle.  We had to light the candles three times because Kyle blew them out, then Lucy, then we were finally able to get Happy Birthday sung before Lucy and Kyle blew them out together!
Norah & Eleanor doing a princess fashion show.  She was REALLY into fashion shows after our morning at church.
Somewhere it went from princess dresses to cocktail waitresses??? These were some of my dance costumes from when I was younger!

Ring the bell and RUN!!!

I LOVED May Day when I was a little girl. I remember making those little dixie cups into 'baskets' and getting so nervous that people would catch me as I was leaving their goodies on their porch.  I could see Eleanor's excitement was similar to mine when I was younger. She was very nervous that if the boys caught her, they would kiss her.  

Here are some of the May Day baskets before we left the house. 
Here are the kiddos getting ready to leave. 
And then a close-up of Lucy. I LOVE this picture. 

We had a great time and Eleanor did not get kissed, whew!

Kindergarden Round up

Eleanor had Kindergarten round up last week and she LOVED every minute of being there. She goes back in two weeks for part two! She can't wait. 
Don't worry...I will take more pictures next time.

Eleanor's Birthday list

Eleanor is making her birthday list and this is one of the things on her list.  She keeps telling me how cool it would be to have this one her wall!!!
Her Uncle Bryan likes As Seen on TV items and I think he is rubbing off on her!
