6 on Saturday

Here are 6 reasons I'm loving my girls this week:

1.  Maggie loves breakfast.  Like a lot.  For real.  Every morning she asks Robbie (he feeds the girls breakfast while I shower) for two bowls of cereal and then some of whatever anyone else is having.  If Campbell is having waffles and turkey sausage, Maggie has to have some, too.  If Robbie is eating a breakfast sandwich, she has to have some, too.  It has really taken a toll on the amount of dishes we go through...

2.  Maggie and Campbell have very definite and different fashion ideas.  Here is just one example from a recent evening:  Maggie accessorized her gymnastics attire with a few ties of Daddy's, sunglasses, and sparkly red shoes of Campbell's.  Campbell created her own gown using one of Robbie's headbands to create the neckline and tucking a blanket into the front and another into the back to create this flowing gown.  She accessorized her creation with another of Robbie's ties used as a belt, a cupcake purse, and her new sunhat we got on clearance recently.

3.  Campbell has really taken the story we read to her last week about Helen Keller to heart.  This week most of her baby dolls have been blind and deaf...although I am happy to report that Baby Bella regained her sight and is now "only" deaf!  She has taken extra special care of her "special" babies!

4. One of Campbell's homework assignments was to play hopscotch.  It was a fun activity for both girls!

5.  Maggie can officially write her name!

6. The girls and I have recently discovered the wonder of the Disney music channel on Pandora.  I foresee many more dance parties in our future!

Does Maggie really eat ALL of that for breakfast?! That's hilarious. And I might have to look into the Disney Pandora channel. We love us some dance parties. Right now the girls enjoy my jock jams CD from the 90s. So funny!
