Smoothie Morning And Lydia the Photographer

I told Lydia that we could have smoothies in the morning.  In the morning she woke up and the first thing out of her mouth was, "Can we have a smoothie, mom?"  She loved it and Eli did too.



Lydia likes to figure out how to use the camera.  She want to take pictures of Eli and me.  So these were the results. Not  bad Huh?



Then of course we had to take one of her too.  So cute.  Her hair curls pretty easily with just a little hair spray or mouse.

Disney on Ice

So a friend of mine invited us to go with her to Disney On Ice Treasure Trove.  It was amazing! Lydia and I loved it.  Ben got to hang out with Eli.  We appreciated it so much.  The performances were better than the movies.  Lydia hadn't seen most of the movies that were reenacted, but i know she enjoyed Tangled and the finale of princesses.
It was hard to take pictures but I managed to get a few.

 Hanging...
Still hanging.... My kids are great! Of course I might be a little, okay, a lot, bias but I can be right.  I am so proud of them.  They teach me tons and we have so much fun together.  We were at a park for a birthday party and they both liked to hang there.  It was pretty cute.  They lasted a while.

Happy Halloween

Let Down your Hair
On Halloween went over to a friends house and  had pizza.  Then we went trick or treating together in a really nice neighborhood. We enjoyed all the fun.  Lydia kept saying, "Another house, another house." She also would try to grab a whole handful at each door.  She was excited for all that candy.
Earlier in the week we made Halloween cookies. Lydia put a face on her pumpkin, but we never got a picture of hers. She only ate her about half of a cookie in one sitting. Eli ate two cookies and loved them.


Got to love that smile.
