ReplyDeleteI hope Juliette is feeling better! It looks like Emily has lots of fun in the music group. That is such a neat idea!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad Juliette is doing better and that things are starting to get back to normal for your family! I don't know how you managed to do so many great things on top of everything else you had going on; what a great Mommy!! :)
ReplyDeleteI really like the name cards. I need to make some for my little girl.
ReplyDeleteIt's great to hear that things are starting to return to normal for you.
ReplyDeleteI like your craft beach ideas for Emily - the ocean treasure keeper and the plaster of paris.
How sweet to see Emily picking out a perfect little pumpkin for her little sis, Juliette.
Your girls looked so cute for Halloween. You did a fantastic job with their costumes. How wonderful that daddy and Emily were also able to get in on the act and make some perfect eyes for Emily's costume.
