We Have Pigtails!
Her hair is finally at a length where I can put her hair into pigtails! I love the curls!
Daily Life
Olivia and Jillian
These girls keep getting older! They are so fun and I love that they have each other, even though they might fight more than play these days.
$30 bath
Alice just took a $30 bath! I left the bathroom for a second and she dumped all three of my brand new Lush Bath Bombs into her bath. Oops serves me right keeping nice things in reach of a 2 year old. 
Smudge
Our kitten is almost 1 years old! He is HUGE haha and is an incredibly sweet cat. He puts up with a ton from Alice before he snaps. 
Christmas 2019
What a whirlwind of a season! Thanksgiving was at the end of November so it felt like the Christmas season was totally rushed. Well we made it to Christmas and it was a success… well, mostly. The household came down with a cold. It started with Alice two weeks prior and spread its way around. Olivia missed out on a trip to Carmel with her friend because it was really bad. This wasn’t as bad as the flu during Christmas a couple years ago, but certainly a more subdued Christmas. The girls were excited for their gifts and the magic of Christmas but just a lot of coughing and sore throats.
Santa went big this year and brought Jillian and Olivia VR headsets and Claire a new computer so she can keep up with her sisters online. Alice got a frozen playset.
Had to wake this one up, the flash ruined the moment but she looked like an angel while sleeping
Slime is always a hit

Gnocchi Making
This year I wanted to connect to my ancestors so I thought a fun way to do that would be to have my mom teach us how to make gnocchis. The girls lasted about 10 minutes then were over it. I was super excited that I actually remembered how to make them. I also found they weren’t as much work as my mom and aunt always made it out to be. Yes making a TON for a family to eat would be a pain in the butt, but every once in a while for myself for some comfort food, totally manageable! Also we found that the gluten free versions were just as good as the regular ones.
