Mia's heels

My mom (Nana) gave Mia these shoes along with some coordinating items as a gift for Jackson's birthday. She LOVES these shoes and calls them her "heels." She is in a very picky phase with her clothes and pretty much has to wear a dress daily so that she can wear her "heels." She even has some girly nightgowns that require "heel" wearing as well. Too funny. Note the dress also-this is one of her favorites and whenever it is clean she insists on wearing this one. My little fancy girl!

Mini Musicians

This picture cracks me up! Jackson and Mia entertained themselves for quite a while playing "violins" with bubble wands. I love Mia's serious face. They were humming some tune while doing this and I did get a video, but unfortunately the twins were crying in the background. I love watching their creativity and imagination at work.

Ok-so I just watched the video again and it is too cute not to share (at least I think it is cute!)

Things that made my week

1. Finding $20 in a pair of jeans I was about to donate to charity.
2. Jackson telling me he didn't want to "burn" while he was watching me do my excerise video-you know "burn those calories, feel the burn." Hilarious!
3. Forcing myself to "feel the burn" consistently for 2 weeks now.
4. Loss of 8 pounds-yes!
5. Cooler weather, all of my kids in jeans, pumpkins and apples everywhere.
6. Finding adorable costumes for halloween for the kids.
7. Planning a very mini vacation, but a vacation with the family later this month.
8. Taking all 4 children out of the house by myself with no meltdowns (mine or the kids!)

Those were the highlights of mine! Hope you all enjoyed yours!

Assigned Seating

So we have this big sectional couch in our living room and yet whenever a movie is watched, Jackson and Mia squish onto this little section of it. Cute? I think so.

The many faces of Amelia

Almost

Grant and Liam are almost walking. Liam is in the red stripes. Please excuse the dirty onesies, full diapers, commentary in the background, and the fact that you have to watch these with your head turned to one side:). If you'll notice, however the kitchen is somewhat clean. Hey, you can't have it all!
