Halloween 2011

So this Halloween was a busy one! We went to a party at Robin and Logan's on Sunday and then took the girls to Amy and David's on Monday night to go trick or treating with Cambria and Baylen. They had a great time at all!

I made some cupcakes for both parties! The mummy toppers are my favorite!!

Here's our sweet Sophie as a Monkey!

Sarah went up to the first few houses with Scott while Shayna and Sophie hung out in the wagon we borrowed from Amy. The Sarah wanted into the wagon and Shayna wanted out. Shayna was the only one of the bunch to really like the trick or treating and she absolutely loved it. She was pulling Scott to each of the houses! She even did a happy dance when she saw two light up tombstones on one of the lawns! The other two were content in the wagon just watching the festivities.

The girls in the wagon at the beginning of the night!

Shayna and Scott trick or treating!

Sophie did not like to wear the monkey hood part of her costume. But she makes a super cute non headed monkey too!

Princess mommy and duckie Shayna!

Shayna in the Carter's Store!!!

Today we saw Shayna in the upper wall graphics at the Carter's store. Her image will be up through the holidays!!

We still need to check back right before Thanksgiving and the first week of Dec. when they will be having pajama promotions.. her image could be in the large windows!!

Have to wait and see if she shows up anywhere else...

Park Fun

Okay, so I know we haven't blogged in ages but here are some pictures of the girls from the last few days at the park and playing around the house!

This is a favorite of mine ! Sophie is so beautiful!!!

My latest creation... hamburger cupcakes (the bun is cupcake and the burger is brownie) sugar cookie french fries and frosting ketchup!

Shayna's Photo Shoots

Here are just a few of the pictures I took of Shayna this week. We are in the process of signing Shayna up with an Agent to see if we can book any modeling jobs for her and they needed a bunch of shots of her outdoors with different outfits and facial expressions. I took over 300 pictures in 3 days of just Shayna and here are a few of my favorites. I sent 45 to the agent who will narrow it down to 8, and then I have to narrow that to 4 to create a photo page for the agency to send to potential castings! Keep your fingers crossed for our little cutie pie!

Playhouses, Bubbles and Passover

We just bought a playhouse for the girls to play in . We got it yesterday and set it up in the atrium to surprise them this morning. Sarah walked outside and was so excited! She said "wow! Treehouse! " and ran around looking at the whole thing. Then she went inside to play.

Here are all the girls enjoying their new "digs"

Sophie being adorable, as usual

Sophie again

Look who's answering the door...

Sarah answering the door for Sophie. The house even has a working doorbell

Sarah has been obsessed with bubbles lately so Scott bought a serious bubble machine and set it up for the first time today. Everyone LOVED it!

Sarah chased them around trying to pop them

Shayna enjoying the bubbles

You can't tell in the picture, but Sophie really liked them too!

Monday night was the first night of Passover and we went to Scott's folks house for the family Sedar. Here is an top shot of the tables. There were 40+ people!

Sarah trying bitter herbs.. not such a big fan (not that I blame her)

Sophie decided to feed me her crunchy snacks. She though it was hilarious

Sarah enjoying her matzah!

Here are a few shots from earlier in the week at the park

This is my new favorite picture of Sophie! Those eyes are amazing!

Sarah's 2 Year Update

Sarah turned 2 on March 3 and here are her stats and 2 year portraits!

She is 25 lbs 11oz and 35 inches long!

She talks all the time and her vocabulary grows every day. She is even speaking some sentences

She knows all of her letters and numbers 1-10

She can even write the letters T, H, and I!

Shayna and Sophie are 1 Year Old!!!!

Yesterday we took the girls to have their one year portraits taken and today we had their one year check ups. Here are the best of the pics and their updated stats:

Shayna is 20 lbs 12 oz and 29 inches long.

She is in the 50th percentile for both height and weight

Shayna has been walking for a few weeks now and is walking more than crawling. She just needs to learn how to stand up without something to hold on to!

Sophie is 21 lbs 9 oz and 29.5 inches long.

She is in the 60th percentile for both height and weight

Sophie just began to cruise within the last week, and also took her first steps on Saturday. She may have waited to walk, but is learning it pretty quickly!

Both girls are healthy and doing great!

Here are my favorite of the one year pictures:

Shayna loved the piano prop

So did Sophie

This is my favorite shot of Shayna

This is my favorite of Sophie

Shayna my walker. She has been walking for about 2 weeks now.

Sophie just took her first steps on Saturday, but still has a ways to go before she is "walking"

I love this shot of Sophie with the flower

I love the intense concentration!
