today is our anniversary.
craig told to go back to sleep and he'd walk the dog, feed the kids
and take them to school.
he gets more romantic everyday.
i can't express my love and respect enough….
happy anniversary sweetheart.
our trip was our way of celebrating big and a date will be the small.
a date!
can't wait for that.
also today was annie's first day back to preschool.
she picked out a perfect annie outfit.
and added her sparkly shoes.
every single time she puts these on she says sweetly
"thank you so much for buying 'dees mama.
i always wanted 'dees for my birthday."
and i say, "i know. you're welcome"
and her shirt is a size 24 month dress.
i heard them say "i'm the mama. i'm working"
what do you think of that kristin?
pretty cute.
my small taste of freedom begins again today.
Nancy - You’re a good mama for letting Annie wear what SHE picked out! That was always the hardest thing for me, still is sometimes. I always tell the girls that they are a reflection of the family and vice versa.
Kelly - Congratulations! Kelly

Staci - Happy Anniversary! I love Annie’s little face! Too cute! My Jake’s first day was today and he SCREAMED and CRIED! HELLO? WHAT??? This is the child who could care a less if I leave—EVER! I don’t know WHAT his deal was! Seriously…I didn’t know how to act…neither of my boys have EVER acted like this! Evidently, he calmed down and when I picked him up…he said, “It was GREAT MOMMY!” ????????? Enjoy your date!
Marla - Happy Anniversary!!
I love date nights! Hope y’all have a wonderful time.
cynthia - “working”….does that translate into “bloggin” ?
HA!
happy freedom to you! enjoy!
and happy anniversary too!
mom - Happy Anniversary to you both. Have fun on your date.
Steph @ Problem Solvin Mom - what a precious sweetheart she is!
Happy Anniversary!
Taddie Tales - Wow – what awesome cookie cutters. I would love to find some like those little girls. We could have fun decorating those.
I use too small dresses for shirts all the time. Throw them on with leggins or bloomers. Hey, we need to stretch the life of those clothes as much as possible. We need that extra $$$ for the antique shop.
Leah Schoonover - Happy Anniversary! I hope you guys have a sweet day!
PamperingBeki - Awwww, what a cutie pie!!
Happy anniversary! Enjoy that freedom and think of me, okay? 😉
that girl - Happy Anniversary, we were married in September, too! The 12th will be our 16th anniversary.
amy d - your craig needs to give my craig some anniversary lessons. 🙂 don’t forget to send me over your ikea list!! annie looks very happy to be back with eliza.
susan - Yes, indeed. Happy anniversary!
Aby - Congratulations on your anniversary! What a beautiful picture of the flowers… your husband sounds dreamy.
My girls are in first grade… they’ll be seven in November and today they both have on 24 month stretchy pants… they make PERFECT capris for them!! And they’re different from what everyone else is wearing (we have pretty limited shopping around here so everyone ends up with the same stuff). I LOVE shopping in the toddler section for them! Plus it’s usually cheaper!!
Enjoy your freedom!! 🙂
a rose among thorns - i love that she can pick out her own outfit. i do the same with my kiddos..there are too many to fuss with every single moment, and it makes the secure in themselves…at least that’s my story!
anyway, people constantly stop me and tell my #2 and 3 girls their shoes are on backwards or their dress isn’t tied…and i say, isn’t that great since it’s their own style?
carissa - i’m so glad to see someone else stretches the use of those cute dresses… they DO make perfect baby doll tops! 🙂
yeah for preschool! her face… joy!
AND…
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY! love is in the air… do do do do do… love is in the air!
