Bedtime giggles

Here the girls are refusing to go to bed and they decide to have a giggling fit.

May 20th - the girls are going through a phase where bedtime takes a little longer than usual. Naps seem to get shorter and they seem to want to stay up longer. We are still keeping to the schedule although I read that we might need to modify it soon as the older the toddlers get the less sleep they require....sigh... Parents need their naps too! Hahaha!

Hannah is still a finicky eater and at times tries most of daddy and mommy's patience. Most of the time the girls want to eat whatever I am eating, so I am trying to eat healthier in the presence of the girls, however I cannot give up my coffee and diet coke. Both Hannah and Sophie's favorite statement is "I like ice-cream!". You know it's become a problem when Sophie wakes up in the morning and asks for ice-cream for breakfast or when I go to Starbucks and Hannah asks for ice-cream pointing to a picture of a frappacino LOL! I do not give them ice-cream on a regular basis and I've recently replaced fruit gummies with raisins and dried cranberries. Other snacks are dried veggie chips and the usual fruits (apples, bananas, and grapes). I'm not a mean mommy I do let them eat some sweets from time to time, but with all the finicky eating I have to limit the amount of junk food intake.
