So I'm a bit off on this project...but definitely wanted to document ~~our~~ their yesterday. My husband took them, but I rushed from work to get a sneak peek towards the end...

baby ballerinas...

Look how good he did picking out cute tutus for the girls...

And if you're a reader (viewer) here but not of my family blog...pretty please go vote for me in the paper mama challenge -- Toliver Family #18. It's a shot of my friend's daughter! Pls and Thank You!

These pics highlight two things the girls love...Ring around the Rosie and Coloring...

More importantly (j/k) they got their first pairs of flip flops this weekend. In my house, this is worth documenting. I LOVE flip flops and was excited to find these with the straps on the back at Babies R Us. (For yourselves mommies, JCREW flip flops are the way to go!)

E.T.A. - For those that commented/emailed - the camera shirt is from Babies R US...super cheap (<$10.00)

The girls don't always get along perfectly (they are all strong willed and want to be the boss!) ...but I sure love when they do. The best Mother's Day present...these three...enjoying eachothers company...dancing and grooving to their own beats.

The girls got me lots of handmade items. I have several handprints ;), a lavendar project, color sheets, foot bath salts, cards, bookmarks, and a canvas.
Another fantastic Mother's Day Gift was finding out that I won a fantastic prize on Clickinmoms for the bottom picture in this post! Woohoo! So glad we stopped to take a pic that evening to soak in that gorgeous light.

Happy Mother's Day!

Never mind our messy garage...my limb chops (no time to change lenses - I can't take my eyes off of the little ones long enough for that)...and the ill put together collage...this is just easier than uploading individual pics ;)

MacKenzie wrapped her gymnastics season this weekend. She had her second best meet of the season, but didn't qualify for the state banquet. She was very disappointed and actually shed some tears. That is really unlike her. In fact, we get on to her for not caring enough sometimes. There was only one girl on her team that qualified this year. I think it may have been harder for MacK because she did qualify last year so she actually knows what she'll be missing out on...I felt bad, but the truth is...that's life. You win some...you lose some...and...there is always next year :)

Below that I have the second installment of Me and Mine. You can see the first here. The girls and I played around a bit with the timer. Yes, I know...I said, I was going to do this once a month...let's change that to once a quarter :) The girls again loved seeing me run back and forth to set the timer and really wanted to help. Maybe one day we'll actually fix ourselves up for a me and mine...not today though...settling for no make up and crazy hair instead. :)

It's Easter today and it's all raindrops around here. Disappointing, but it didn't keep us away from church. We went to two egg hunts yesterday and to an Easter Service at Church on the Move last night and to Sanctuary this morning. The girls have had a great time collecting eggs and carrying their baskets. We are so blessed. I just love my silly bunnies! And this mommy is mostly thankful for the sacrifice and resurrection. Happy Easter!

As part of my 52 Week Project I am also doing a Me and Mine 12xs. I absolutely know there is no way I'll be getting KT in pics twelve times and I don't want use up my once a year formal pictures, so I'm going to start the year and may even finish the year with just me and the girls. If we get him in at any point...it'll just be a bonus! LOL

Setting up for this, I had NO IDEA how much fun the girls would have doing this...and look...they are budding photographers. They LOVED this! I've never been able to get them to smile for pics...They loved helping set the timer and then running to our spots. Nia prefers hand held though. :)

Yes, we all look a mess, but it's us. The REAL us...food on faces...hair uncombed...missing pants....and all!
