Everyone LOVES a good tea party!

For those of you who don't know, Ireland and Chloe love everything "girlie" with a passion... they love princesses, dress-up, babies... and now, tea parties. Ireland asked Nana and Papaw if they would have a tea party with her last Wednesday night but everyone was busy that night... Papaw had to rush off to school and I had to go to youth group. So while the girls were home alone with Nana, they decided to plan a tea party for the following night. Ireland made an invatation (I tired to get a picture of it, but nothing really showed up in the picture) for Mommy and Papaw inviting us to her tea party. Then the girls went and found Aunt Sissy and Mommy's old tea sets from when we were little girls. And they planned on making some "tea party treats" on Thursday afternoon. Ireland also taught Nana what kind of things you do at a tea party... I am not sure if any of my blog readers know what exactly "tea party conversation" is, so I will tell you... You have to hold up your pinky my your mouth (no tea cup required) and say, "Pip pip! Cherrio!" Who knows where Ireland gets this stuff... well, actually, I am pretty sure she got this from the Backyardigans! :)

So, anyways, here are the pictures of our tea party... We had lots of fun and Ireland has asked to have another one everyday since Thursday.... Enjoy the pictures!

And now she is enjoying her tea!

Needless to say we had lots of fun and Ireland cannot wait for her next tea party!

Ireland has a new "do"

Ireland decided she was tired of having her hair pulled back everyday and asked me if I would stop putting ponies (that is what we call hair ties) in it... I told her the only way we could do that was if she let me cut some bangs so her hair would stay out of her face... there is nothing more annoying to me than having my girls hair hang in their faces! Drives me bonkers!

She had a hard time deciding if she wanted bangs or not... first she had to make sure Daddy was ok with it. He told her she could do what she wanted to do (he actually said he ,"thought it was better to stay out of the way when it came to you women and hair"... but that was good enough for me). Then she thought that if she got them cut her friends wouldn't know who she was... Well, I fianlly convinced her that everyone would know who she was and she really wouldn't have to have ponies in her hair and she was all for it!

So here are some pictures of her new do! She really loves it! I really do think her favorite part is that I don't do her hair every day anymore! :)

We had an impromptu (sp?) photo shoot after the hair cut because Ireland was feeling extra fiesty (as you will be able to see in the following pictures)!!! Enjoy and let me know what you think! :)

Pictures from the last week... sorry about that! :)

Sorry its been so long since my last post! I just haven't really been paying attention to posting! Really sorry! But here are some pictures of the last 2 weeks... The first few are of the girls playing their new favorite game called Elefun... this is what they picked with their money from Grandma Sherry for Christmas. Ireland wants to play it everyday! Its a pretty fun game for them... this elephant has a fan inside and you turn it on and it blows his trunk up and these little butterflies come out of his trunk and the girls have to catch them with their nets... Chloe gets distracted pretty easy, but they do have lots of fun!

*notice the clothing in these pictures... Ireland is in Ariel dress up and Chloe is in an Ariel swimming suit... they picked them all by themselves!

These last 2 pictures are of the girls after church last Sunday... Ireland was wearing Nana's boots and Chloe was wearing mine... They were playing house and Ireland was the mom and Chloe was the kid! Pretty cute! :)
