No, I can't help myself!!

You have to note that Madi and Leah are wearing knee socks in this picture. Thankfully we took the picture before church, because by the time we got home, 4 of the little pom poms were off the socks.

 

 

 

A picture of the Amazon madness

In my defense, Amazon does ship one item per box usually. But this is still insane. This picture was from two days. Now our accumulation is probably up to around 40 boxes. But hey, I've got birthdays and Christmas taken care of for next year!

 

You know you're shopping too much at the Amazon sale when....

... You have enough Amazon boxes to house a small family

... Your 3 year old sees a UPS truck while you're out and she says, "Look Mama, there's that man that comes to our house all the time!!"

... DHL, UPS and Fed Ex are at your house in the same day, all delivering Amazon boxes!!

Birthday pics!!

We had such a great day today. We celebrated Vivian's 1st and Madison's 4th birthday with family and friends.

A beautiful cake and cupcakes NOT made by me and completely wonderful!!

Blowing out the candles

A little icing in the hair (this was the first time Vivian has EVER had any sugar!!)

Isn't she precious?!?!?!

Mackenzie and her best friend Kayla

Pinata time!!

Leave it to Leah to break out the candy!

The birthday girls opening presents

One of Vivian's favs, a glow-worm!!

She LOVED it!!

Ya'll have to note that this paper matches the cake!!

Vivian's fav thing in the world, PUFFS!

Her little bunnies

Uncle Ed and Aunt Deborah got Vivian this awesome ride on toy with, you guessed it. PRINCESSES!!

In her cute hat

Where did this blonde child come from?

Guess who's ONEderful, ONEderous and ONE?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?

Can you even believe my baby is ONE today?!?!?! I am shock at how fast this year has gone. She really has her own personality now. She is VERY animated and loves to chase (by crawl) after her sisters.

We absolutely ADORE our little sweety sweet!! We praise God that he brought her into our family.

Outside today!

Mackenzie's question of the day

Mackenzie asked me yesterday, "Why aren't you more organized like Nana Nana? She always ships our presents so far ahead of time and doesn't wait until the last minute like you do."

Simple answer, "Because her kids go to school!" :)

The Wiggles Concert

For those of you who knew my mother, you TOTALLY know where this comes from! I was able to get a group together and buy Wiggles tickets before they went on sale. So b/c of that, we got to sit on the 4th row!! The concert was awesome, the kids had such a good time, and I think I enjoyed it even more than they did!
