Snow Fun!!

Here are some pictures of the girls playing in the snow today. For us, living in Memphis and being from Louisiana, this is snow. We don't get it very often and it's a treat when we do get a little bit. Emerson woke up this morning so excited yelling, "Mommy the snow came back!!!". Emerson really liked playing in it and didn't want to go inside. Palmer enjoyed most of it, she just didn't like when she face planted in the snow and it got on her face. We also went on a walk with the wagon around the neighborhood to see all the snow. The girls had a lot of fun!

Boudreaux's Explosion

Emerson and Palmer have moved into the same room to make more room for Hudson coming in six weeks. We trained Palmer to sleep in a toddler bed in her room first, then moved it into Emerson's room. She hasn't slept in it one since it's been in Emerson's room. She likes to sleep in the bed with Emerson. Of course it now takes them much longer to go to sleep because they like to play, but it's working out.

One night, Emerson found the tub of Boudreaux's Butt Paste. She decided to paint her and Palmer's hair, face, and pjs. She also thought it would be fun to paint her baby, pillows, sheets, headboard, and wall. I heard them giggling and went to check them. The second I opened the door Emerson said "I'm sorry mommy!". I immediately knew they were into something. They were having a blast getting messy together. So, for those who need to know, Dawn dishwashing soap applied several times gets Boudreaux's out of hair. They had greasy hair for a couple of days. That's life with a very mischievious 2 1/2 year old and a 16 month old who does anything with her sister.

Here's a picture of my two angels sleeping together in the same bed:

Here's what they looked like when I walked in:
