Party Hats and Princess Dresses

When Auntie Wendy came for a visit in May, she brought these wonderful dress up dresses for the girls. They were a bit big this summer, but fit perfectly now, and have made dress-up fun even more exciting! Bring the big mirror up from the basement, and let the dress up fun begin!

 

 

Well hello there pretty lady!

 

She likes what she sees in the mirror!

I just love the pillowy floof that is created when the girls sit in these dresses!

Mirror Fun

We have a large mirror that has been living in our basement for a couple years after it was replaced by a fancy Pier One mirror in one of our bathrooms. The mirror made its way upstairs for the eight month photo shoot when we had a professional come to take pictures.

The mirror then went back down to the basement, until it came up for some fun last month. We have a couple of small mirrors in the toy box, and they are among our favorite toys. Emily is especially entertained by her reflection these days. One morning, she was really getting a kick out of finding me in the reflection of her little mirror, so I decided to see how she would react to the big mirror. Both Emily and Addison were amazed to see themselves and so much else reflected, and we played for a little while but then I put the mirror away to wait for Daddy to come home so he could join in on the fun. DeeDee happened to come over that evening as well, so we all had a grand time playing music and watching the mirror.

Emily was giving herself the biggest smiles!
