Sophie's new specs

Sophia's new glasses arrived yesterday (Ava got a new pair too a few weeks ago) and as I predicted, she will only leave them on for about 25-30 seconds at a time. I was able to snap a few shots, so here you go! I have to say she looks absolutely adorable in them, just like her big sister!

Happy Easter 2008

Here are some family shots from Easter. We had a great time at church and Maw Maw and Ta Ta's. Sophie decided that she like being in Tilly's dog cage. She probably thought that was the only place to keep her cookie safe from Ava the Sweet Tooth Queen!

The girls had a cold, but great Easter! We took them to Build-A-Bear on Good Friday. Ava made an elephant and named him Heffalump and Sophia made a chick which Ava named Chick E. Poo. We purchased glasses for Sophia's chick to match her new glasses (which should be here any day now). Once we get Sophie's glasses we will post a pic of the two together!

The last pics are of what Ava decided to do to her sister while mommy was working......I thought I had escaped the "scribble on your sibling" act that I see on America's Funniest Videos, but apparently, not so much! Sophie even had dots on the underside of each toe and lines on the soles of her feet. Ugh!

Walt Disney World

Sorry, it's been awhile since we've updated the blog...we've been busy preparing for our trip to the Magic Kingdom. We went on Tues. Mar. 4 and were supposed to return on Fri. Mar. 7, but the blizzard back home told us to stay until Sun. Mar. 9. We stayed at the Contemporary Resort and had a great view of the Magic Kingdom, we could even watch the fireworks from our bed! The girls had never been on a plane before or stayed in a hotel and I couldn't have been more proud! Ava was telling everyone in the airport on the day we were coming home that we couldn't get home earlier because there was a "lizard" at our house......she meant, blizzard!

Ava filled up two autograph books from all of the characters (or correctors as she called them)and Sophie just enjoyed giving all of them a "hi-five."




The girls had the time of their lives. We have over 600 pictures from our trip, so I'm trying to narrow them down to a few for the blog. Daddy we will working on a video montage of our magical vacation and we have more pictures arriving from Disney Photo Pass in a few days!

Ava also enjoyed her beauty treatment at Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique where they transformed her into Belle from Beauty & the Beast. Package complete with hair, nails, makeup, gown, tiara, slippers and wand! She even got a photo shoot afterwards! She felt pretty special!

Ava's highlight was meeting Prince Charming from Cinderella. He twirled her around, then put his arms around her for a picture. After he left, she jumped up and down and yelled, "yes! yes! yes!" Everyone around us was laughing hysterically. She walked around (or should I say floated) the rest of the evening saying, "I can't believe it! The prince thinks I'm beautiful! I'm so happy!" Too cute!

Sophia's highlight would have to include our lunch with the Winnie the Pooh characters (or correctors as Ava would say). Sophie calls them, "Poo-Poo," "I-ore, " and "Kigger."
