First Haircuts!

I bet some were doubting I would ever do it. We've been planning to do it for a bit but weekends have been crazy lately. Yes, all the girls in the house got haircuts this past Saturday. Here are the before pics:





Reagan asked that I go first which was easy enough. And then it was her turn. She even got her hair washed. I must say that both girls were really quite good. They held still and moved their head where asked for the most part. I think that they look absolutely adorable though I may be biased. I couldn't stop looking at Abby's hair all day!








Go Texan Day!




An Expensive Weekend

We decided it was the right time to move Reagan up from her toddler bed. Truth be told she was getting too tall for it. We'd looked before and really were surprised by how hard it was to find one. We simply wanted a white twin bed with a trundle. Yep, that was it and very hard to find! The best luck we'd come across was at Rooms To Go and they were having a deal that worked for us so we decided to go and pick one out. Reagan's only input she would give us was that she wanted a princess bed. So while I'm not thrilled with it I let her pick our her bedding herself. So this is Miss Reagan's big girl bed and she's loving it!



But wait, there's more. Abby took an early nap so we decided to go car shopping. Not to worry, this wasn't completely on a whim as we were planning to do this but the timing was a little sooner then expected. Who doesn't want to take a 2 & 3 year old car shopping right? So after 5 hours, 2 of which were after dinner and right at bedtime, we had bought 2 new vehicles. Yep, 2. The lease on our truck was up and the Explorer was high on miles and started to show signs of trouble. We decided to do something smart for a change. We traded in the truck for a car, Fusion, as it is mostly just used to drive to/from work. We traded in the Explorer for something a bit bigger, an Expedition. We're looking forward to having the 3rd row for extra room and I know the girls are already appreciating having vents of their own. Reagan is very excited about having 2 new cars and tells everyone about them.



Happy Valentines Day

Silly Girls

While waiting one morning for Dad to come home from a bike ride we decided to hang out a little outside and have a snack. These girls are so silly.










Abby's 2nd Birthday Party

Abby's 2nd birthday was held at A Bunch of Fun. It was the perfect place for her as there was not too much going on and wasn't the least bit overwhelming. She had a Minnie Mouse themed party and she and 20 of her friends had a fantastic time!

Cupcakes!

Reagan is sitting by her best friend Kaitlyn. It was impossible to get a pic of them together as they were always in motion. They are cute as can be together & are always together at school.

Happy Birthday Abby!

Happy Day!


After a nice long needed nap we opened gifts.






It was a fantastic day. We have amazing friends who made it special and we missed all that were unable to share with us.
