The Year of American Girl

Have you heard the news?  Frozen is SO 2014!  Twenty-fifteen is the year of American Girl!  We've been house bound since Christmas with the flu and stomach viruses so thank goodness we had new American Girl dolls and accessories to keep us occupied! (thank you Grandparents and Santa!)

So far 2015 has been, well, pretty close to awful.  We've ALL been sick at least twice, we've gone through a realm of antibiotics with less than stellar side effects, it's been FREEZING outside and we had a snow day with NO SNOW!  We're finally healthy and ready to break out (and air out!) this sick house!  The Kinard girls (and boy!) are ready to take on 2015, with an American Girl Doll in tow nonetheless!  Here's to a year with no newborns (probably ever again!), no sleepless nights (we're going to end this cycle of waking up 10 times a night once and for all!), lots of Barbies, dress up, and dolls (i LOVE having girls!!), endless summer days at the pool, health, happiness and lots and lots of giggles!! 

My girls with their girls!

Hailey and Isabelle, the dancer. 

We've watched the movie about Isabelle a million times! 

All of the girls really get into it!

Lainey at ballet (just like Isabelle of course!)

Hailey wanted to wear her leg warmers to class this week because Isabelle wears leg warmers!  And so it begins...

All bundled up and ready for the 10 degree school morning!

Killing time with selfies at one of our MANY trips to the doctor!

The girls have been living off of bananas while the stomach virus passes through our house!

Poor little reader fell asleep during quiet reading time in her crib!

Our only playdate in the last 3 weeks!  The girls idolize our neighbor Kaitlyn!

Zoned out watching a Barbie movie.  

Avery is 16 months!

Avery is the new Queen Bee around here.  She gets what she wants and is definitely treated like royalty.  Here she is getting stroller rides from her big sister.  

She loves bath time!

Three sudsy sisters!

Avery (15mos), Lainey (3.5), Hailey (5.5)
