it's finally her turn! cora goes to preschool:

this fiesty girl has been waiting and longing to go to preschool like hazel for like the past two years. well, today her turn finally came!  she was so excited!

beach photos

my mom's birthday present request: new portraits of the girls.  and since we looked cute last sunday, and i have been meaning to take beach photos of the girls for FOREVER, we just randomly decided to go to the pier and shoot some photos and see if we got anything good.  and boy, did we!  in fact, we got so many good ones that i will probably have to post another batch another day.  my girls were looking SO CUTE and were being so cooperative with the promise of treats when we got home.  

my beauties:

 you guys, I MADE THEM.  i can hardly believe it.
