We went to the Mickey Music Festival at the Rosemont Theater.  The girls had a blast!  They loved seeing all of the Disney characters on stage and enjoyed all the songs!  I'm so glad we were able to go.  It was kind of a last minute thing but we are so thankful it worked out and family was able to join us.  What a great night!

Building A Snowman!


 
 Ella on left!
 We built our first snowman!
 Here he is!  Carrot nose and all!
We decided we would build another one!
 This one we made smaller by Savanna's request!
 Ella!
Savanna!
 
The girls and I built our first snowman together!  Mommy did most of the work as the girls told me to keep building. Lol!  Then, when the first snowman was finished Ella wanted a carrot nose so luckily I had carrots in the house.  Next, Savanna wanted me to build a smaller snowman which we added a hat too!  This was so much fun and hopefully next year they can help out more.

Pretend Play!

 Ella playing with her Easter House!
 Doesn't everyone wear a tutu when they play?
 Ella inviting the princess' over!
 Ella giving Ariel a check-up!  So cute!
Savanna reading Brown Bear Brown Bear!
 
The girls are starting to pretend play and it is too cute for words!  If I start the idea of what to do they will continue it in their own way.  They both wanted to put on their tutus tonight and were pretending to be ballerinas.  Ella was also playing with her princess castle and Easter house.  She especially loves to play with Snow White. At other times Ella will play with her kitchen and pretend to make hot chocolate for us.  Savanna was also playing with Ella at the Easter house tonight.  At other times, Savanna will make up things for Ella and her to do and she really enjoys looking in the mirror while making different expressions.  They both have been soaking in so much lately!  They enjoy learning their letters, numbers, counting, and painting.  It is so fun to teach them new things and really see them use those skills.  I think the best thing is how they love to read!  Every night we read to the girls and I cherish those moments because that time is so precious.  I love these girls so much!!!

First Ponytail!



I had to post these.  They look so much older with their ponytail.  Their hair is still a little short to keep it in but they look so cute!

It's Time For Your Check-Up!



 The patients!
 Doctor Savanna!
 The Doc is in!
 Hard at work!
 Giving Our Check-ups!
Doctor Ella!
 
The girls love to watch DocMcstuffins and since then they love to play doctor.  The show is all about a little girl who fixes her stuffed animals and has a clinic in her playhouse.  When the girls play they always give a full check-up and tell us what the diagnosis is.  It is the cutest thing to see!
