Another Battle Lost

I've only ever wanted little girls- Girls that I could dress up in ribbons and lace.  It never crossed my mind while I was pregnant that my babies would ever be boys.  I don't know why- I always just knew.

I'm not the most feminine woman in the world although I do clean up nice. You'll most likely find me in a t-shirt and a pair of yoga pants.  My babies are a different story!  They're always dressed cute and girly girl.  I love pink and purple and all of their clothes match.  What fun would it be if they didn't?  Halloween is around the corner and I found these adorable costumes!

I almost had RooBear sold and then she saw the dragon...

She was so excited that she sqeeled!  What was I supposed to do?  Tell her no?  Make her be a cupcake? Try to make her understand that this was a boy's costume?  

Yeah, right. 

She wins again.

And since I couldn't have a dragon and a cupcake...

Here's Juicy's costume.  LOL.  

Oh, Halloween.  I can't wait =)  

Never Say Never

Most everyone knows I'm a laid back mom.  I'm the kinda mom that doesn't go overboard with the clothes or the shoes.  Yes, my children get dressed up for formal events and special occasions but for the most part we're pretty simple.  I dress them like I dress myself- comfortably and not fussy. 

RooBear has turned on me.

Now, don't get me wrong- These shoes are cute.  I just never thought my children would want light up shoes.  Silly of me, right?  Every girl wants to sparkle.

Not only did this little mini talk me into shoes for herself... 

She also convinced me that Stister needed a pair, too.  LOL.  She's very persuasive.  Especially when it comes to shoes.

Moral of this story?  Never say what your not going to do when you become a mother.  Never say what your child will or won't do.  Will or won't wear.  The hardest part of this mom thing is letting them make their own decisions.  Here's to hoping all her decisions are as easy as light up or not light up. 

Hooray For Playrooms!!

As any parent of two small children knows there is one very important room in your home... A room that not only provides your children with a place to play but also allows parents to have a little quiet time knowing your babies are in a safe place when they're out of your sight.  Here it is, folks!  The playroom!!  Our other house didn't have this extra space and I honestly didn't know what I was missing out on.  Yes, it's a pain in the rear to clean but worth every second.  This is the very first room that I've finished.  I'll post more pictures of the new house as they're completed.  I love it.  So do my babies.

Pay no attention to the grumpy 3 year old.  She's giving me the, "Momma, get out of the way of the TV" look.  I get this a lot.  LOL.  She's her father's child.
