Not my baby anymore...

Sassy has been asking to cut her hair. The first time we trimmed it but added layers. Well we have been having issues with brushing and washing, so I decided it was time. Plus she won't let me put it in a ponytail, so it is always in her face.









It makes her looks so much older! My Sassy Princess is growing up way too fast!

Time Flies!

Princess In Training is 5 months old today! Time is sure flying by and this little princess is starting to get a little personality. Nothing is safe that is within her reach, so keep all electronics, paper, and hair away from those little hands. She now has a love for Mickey Mouse and Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. Forget the other Disney characters she is all about Mickey! Look out Minnie she is gunning for your man!




P.S. Thanks so much for stopping by my WW pic! I couldn't find the time to comment today, but will try tomorrow.Princess in Training is turning into velcro baby and it is hard to find time to type with two hands at the moment. Luckily she is in bed and I can get this blog out before it is time to clean and hit the hay! I would wish for her to start crawling, but not going to do that just yet!***

Changes are here!

Ever since my scary hospital stay Princess In Training has not been the same. Maybe she is teething or going through a growth spurt, but my lucky stint of blissful sleep has come to an end!

For those who were jealous you have every right to point that finger and laugh. I deserve it for all my bragging! :0)

We have officially moved on to food. To some 5 months (or will be on the 8th) may be a bit young, but she showed all the signs. She shows me when she is done eating... or drinking. She watches you like a hawk when you eat and actually gets mad if she is not included. She sits up pretty well with minimal help. When I say help I mean you better be ready for her teetering.

My Sassy Princess has found a new love! Her new love is Harry Potter. No not the movies... been there. I am talking the books. She is reading the first one. This is a great big milestone, because one... she is reading books that I love even as an adult and two... she can't put it down! This will be the first non picture chapter book she will read. In about 3 days she has read 60 pages. It is a big deal to a 3rd grader who rather be riding her new skateboard, or be next door playing with her friends. I was starting to think that I would have to work harder with Emma to finally get my one child who reads like her mommy... I mean I never leave the house without a book.

These changes are taken with wide open arms! Even the lack of sleep!

Milestones Galore!!

I am a proud mommy and I couldn't keep it all into one Aloha Friday (don't worry I will be back next week)!



Both my girls have hit a milestone! Of course they are very different but awesome all the same!


Since Sassy is the oldest I thought she could go first! I am proud beyond words of this little lady!! She is barely into December of her 3rd grade year and you know what? She is the queen of multiplication tables! Her daddy and I quizzed her and of course we are evil parents and choose the harder ones first and boy did she put us to shame! She didn't even have to think about any of the answers! Of course she gets this from her father because if you know me you know I am mathematically challenged and that is putting it nicely!

Sassy is also growing up so fast. Today daddy took Miss Sassy to get her Christmas dress. This is a big ordeal in our household! She decided that she is too old for puffy dresses. She came home with the most beautiful grown up looking dress (very classic and not trashy, which is hard to find these days). She of course tried it on with her new shoes and boy did she look so grown up! She is sure growing up into a beautiful almost tween! I can't wait to share her pics!

Princess In Training has shown that she is very in tuned with her fine motor skills. She found her hands at 2 months, started grabbing things at 3 months and now has gotten the hang of holding her toys and bottles for more than a few seconds without letting go. Sassy was the opposite and was all about the gross motor skills. Well "P-I-T" will be 4 months on Friday and is finally attempting to roll over. I again play the evil parent and would put her on her tummy in hopes to make her so mad that she would roll over from tummy to back. Today I was playing with her and while I was telling dear hubby something I turned back and found "P-I-T" like this. From her back she moved to her side. She got stuck and couldn't decide which way to go getting frustrated and mad. Of course we thought this was the funniest thing ever and left her like this for a few more minutes to see if she could figure it out. She did roll back soon after. I was getting worried she would never even attempt to roll, because she had shown no interest in the task!

This mommy gets to end her week on a proud note! Tomorrow starts the Friendship Cup and this household is gearing up to a wonderful weekend of soccer! Monday is my surgery so I will update on the soccer games before I go in. Have a most wonderful weekend!!
