The end of the year always flies by way too fast. Once Halloween comes and goes, I feel like I blink my eyes and it's Ryan's birthday, than thanksgiving and a month later is Christmas. I do love this time of the year though. I prefer the Spring and Fall but I do love snuggling up on the couch with some wine and catching up on our TV shows when the girls are asleep. And I love scarves and not having to get Pedi's to keep my feet sandal ready, lol.
Anyway, November was fun, filled and now over.
Mags and I at Cat's bridal shower.
Ash passed the F out with Mary one day.
Not exactly sure what they're looking for.
These 2
Happy birthday dear Tio....
LOL!
My hair looks gross but I flat ironed my momma's hair, looked so pretty.
Just me and my b.
The year of the selfie, for sure...
Even the girls take selfies....
Her eyes though.
Ash has been requesting French braids lately now. It's much harder to do Ashley's cause her hair is so much thinner than Mya's, but we get it done.
The bean.
Off to Titi's.
They're gonna miss the crap out of Mags when she's gone....we all are.
My girl
The 3 amigos.
LOL!
And snuggles for some tv time.
I'm totally that loser in the gym video taping myself. But I like to look back at my progress so I can see how far I've come. I am now at a 18 rep PR on unassisted dips and 4 (almost 5) pull ups.
Ready for swim class.
Ash didn't have it, but has been chillin in the pool while Mya is swimming.
She's really getting good at her diving.
And some fun after practice.
Mya had a birthday party at a roller rink, actually Kendall Park, where I used to go for parties. We need some work but it was fun.
She fell about 100,000 times, and got right back up, every single time.
lol
With some of her friends from school.
AMEN!
Nona took the girls for the day on her day off.
Uncle Frank was off too. I think it was Veterans day.
Mya's Kindergarten school pics. Fake smile, but still super cute.
Throw back to when Ash had some meat on her bones and was a legit ginger snaps.
A go to dinner when we didn't pull anything out. Brown rice tortilla, black bean burger, avocado and runny egg, AMAZING!
Dewey's always on the ground with the kiddies.
Another swim practice and this time, diving on the platform!
And a little backstroke action.
Jenga has been on play for weeks at our crib now. FUN TIMES!
Even Ash is careful enough with it.
Mr, I have never lost....yea right!
All snuggled up after tubby. She put on her slippers and jacket, lol.
I took this pic to show the girls the icicles.
Good ole New Brunswick train station one fine morning.
Ash was at our neighbors house for the day. So nice to have them as back up, the girls play so well together and Jenny (the mom) sends me pics all day long!
Ipad moments....
Playdough time.
They made Christmas ornaments.
Oh you know, just doing some yoga.
Ash got to walk Carter.
Rolling down the hill.
And getting all done up. Jenny texted me saying, "I'm sorry if Ash looks like a drag queen when she gets home, lol!" She had a BLAST!
My big girl, getting bigger and bigger everyday.
This little one kills me. Mommy, put a pony highhhhhhhhh, no higherrrr. Literally until it's on the top of her head.
We met Jojo over at the park one day when it was nice out.
Played some soccer.
These 2.
Ash dropped some water on her pants and was having a moment.
They helped Nona make a thanksgiving tree and talked about what they were thankful for. Mya said family, Ash said butterflies.
Ash is 3.5?! OMG really??? Sometimes I think you're really 4.5 (even Mya says it), but than remember you're not. I just feel like you have done and know so much. Maybe since I have an older one? Ash, you are seriously one of a kind, you crack me up daily and know your funny. You give the biggest hugs when you're comfortable enough with someone, and once you're in there, you're IN THERE! You want anything that Mya has and gets pissed if you can't have it. It usually turns out that Mya gives in way too easily to you, which you know too. You're not a morning person, you literally need alone time when you wake up or you'll be a grump. You ask every week day when we wake up, "Titi's today?" If I say yes, you literally say, YES! If I say school, you say, LAMEEEE! You're still not crazy about school but slowly warming up. You adore your teacher, Mrs. Gliese, who is a saint!
You are a picky eater, literally eat like a bird for dinner. We try and get the most nutritious meal in for breakfast cause you will actually eat it. It slowly dwindles throughout the day. Unless of course, it's ice cream or candy. You are that kid who loves mac and cheese, who we said we would never have!
You are a rule breaker and love to see the reaction when you do something wrong. Sometimes, if I ask you if you want to go to time out, you say yes. You literally will give me gray hairs (which no one will ever see thanks to Chrissy, my stylist!). You are my little rock star, my lili, my LA, my west coast Ash, my snaps, my leezy li, my little love and I couldn't love you more. Your outfits crack me up and I love that you really do have a love of fashion (well I love and hate it). You're finally letting me do stuff with your hair, not much but I'll take it, baby steps. You think you look like a boy when you're wearing all pink, unless it's a HUGE tutu dress that you can twirl around in all day. Your favorite color is blue and I'm talking bright blue, navy isn't blue to you. You are a trip and I get a kick out of all that you do. I love you lili, so so much. More than you'll ever know....
Me and my 3.5 year old.
Yea, that's more like it!
Mya looks SO old to me here, and Mags is a blonde now! lol
Happy December! It really is the most wonderful time of the year!!!!!
