Our Day

Our mornings always seem to fly by. I usually spend it cleaning up from the day before, playing with the kids, dressing them, putting Shae down for her nap, and eating. Today was a typical morning for us.

Annie has inherited some old make up containers of mine and she loves pretending to put the "make up" on her face. She goes to the same space I do, sits in front of the mirror and imitates everything she has seen me do in relation to putting on my make up. Shae decided to join her today.
I love how intently Shae watches her big sister. The tongue sticking out definitely helps.
 Oh, and while Shae takes her nap, in the morning, Annie usually reads (she has been doing this for almost a year now). Most days she will clear out her entire bookshelf and read each one. I am surprised by how many books that she has memorized! Just shows how many times we have read each of those books... I think this upcoming Christmas, she is due for a few more :)
Our afternoons are usually spent taking more naps, on our walk, playing outside, making dinner, and waiting for the beloved time when Daddy gets home. I love being a mom!

Annie is so smart! She knows make-up better than I do!
