sassy lil ballerinas, a sweet blue-eyed boy, and a side of cake

mini dance breakdowns including fast spinning twirls and some fly breakdancing, tickle sessions from my dear birdie friend whom often sits on my shoulder (sometimes head) as my assistant, sticker sticking, cake mashing (and a whole lot of eating of it, too- by everyone),cars racing through tubes, some supermodel breaks (and maybe a few breakdowns but we will never tell...),and the finale of bathtime in a sink.
all before noon. but you would never have known it.

my *very* favorite image of the day.

and so it unfolds...

two sweet, lil sassy ballerinas.
(really, tutus bring out the sass in all of us. especially the pink ones.)

one with big ol gorgeous brown eyes...

and the sweetest, most sincere laugh.







the other with bright, blue curious eyes......

and the most squishy, kissable cheekers. my favorite.





did I mention the adorable, blonde hair, blue eyed, super awesome big brother?

(a superhero undercover, actually, saving us from a many of meltdowns with his gentle, sweet soul)




it doesn't get any more fun than this.




well, maybe it does. one word: cake.



and a one year old on a mission.

(who me??)

yes this may have been the best morning ever.

what better way to complete a fairytale beginning than with a magical star wand





and a warm, sunlit bath.


and they were happy.

ever after.
