My little sunshine

She surprised me with this. (with a little help from her uncle, my "little" bro)

Family Night

Well,now that I am over the trauma of my husband chopping off Camden's gorgeous baby curls,(see post below), I can focus on our family time tonight. Things have been so crazy the last few weeks and I really wanted to spend some time as a family, just hanging out at home. So tonight we have having pizza and movie night. Not only are we going to eat piza for dinner....we are going to have a picnic in the living room! (Now I know you are jealous!)
I went to movie store to find a family movie and this is what I got:

I hope this doesn't feed into the whole "we want a dog" phase my children are in. Sorry kids, it's NOT going to happen!
I am really looking forward to some family time. There is nothing better than snuggling up with pillows and blankets and watching a movie together!

I Can See Clearly Now...

go ahead...sing along!

We went out to Boston last week for Hannah's 3 month check-up with her pediatric opthamalogist. She was put into bifocals on our last visit in hopes of helping her eyes to focus better when she is reading and writing. (This is becoming more important now that she is beginning to read and write.) We had a GREAT appointment! Her eyes are getting much stronger, they are not crossing when she looks at words on a book or paper and it is looking like she will not need surgery to correct the eye muscle! I am so happy! Her vision is improving so much,we can see that she is not struggling to focus in on things. I think she will be seeing things "normally" and in focus by the time she heads to kindergarten in the fall! YAY!!
The other good news is that she seems to be behaving better now that she can see. Amazing! The poor girl was struggling to see so many things, no wonder she was the temper tantrum queen for 2 years! I am glad we made to decision to travel 2 hours to see a specialist and to get a second opinion, it has made our little girls world a much brighter place!

Egg Coloring Fun

I would love to share pictures of my children searching for Easter Eggs at our Easter Egg hunt today. Unfortunately, someone, for got to charge the camera battery. OOPS! So instead here is a peek at our egg coloring fun!

New Things I Cannot Live Without

I have discovered a few new MUST HAVES in my life, so I thought I would share.

DUNKIN DOUNTS ICED TEA

MMMM...

JERGEN'S Natural Glow Self Tanner

This stuff is great! It leaves your skin so soft and smooth. It is not an orangey tint and is simple to apply. I have only used a 3 times and I have just a touch of color. LOVE IT!

PANDORA bracelets and beads

I got the bracelet from my hubby for Valentines Day. I have 5 beads so far, I just love it! I cannot wait to fill my bracelet. Haven't heard of them? Check out the website...http://www.pandora-jewelry.com/US/Jewelry.aspx

A Girl and her Doll

We brought Hannah to the American Girl Doll store in Natick yesterday. She got her "Julie" Doll for Christmas and I have really been excited to bring her down to the store. So we made the 1 and 1/2 hour trek, it was WELL worth it to see her little face when we were there. She got her dolls ears peirced and picked out a new outfit. She took her time picking out the right outfit, we walked around with boxes in our hands deciding which one she wanted for about an hour.

SHOWING OFF JULIES EARRINGS(even thought you can't see them!)


WAITING IN THE VERY LONG LINE


TAKING IT ALL IN!



CHEESE! (blurry,sorry)



It was a fun day, and it was nice to have a special day, just for Hannah. She is growing up too quickly. Kindergarten is approaching way too fast...tear.
