Happy 7th Birthday Chandler!!

Yes, another cheesey cake. So, Chandler wanted a sleepover for her birthday and since I am not real excited about sleepovers she came up with an alternative..... a sleepover cake. She found this on familyfun!! I am definitely no professional but this was kinda fun especially at 6am in the morning. I like to have their cakes done before they wake up. I came close.
My girls are seriously obsessed with American girl doll anything. For those that dont know yet, we got a steal deal on a bunch of dolls and clothes for them from one of Dave's co-workers. Chandler wanted Felicity sooooo bad but we made her think that she is not getting one so when she did it was like a dream come true for her. You can see the excitement on her face.
Here are the three girls after opening Chandlers presents. Mally is laughing at something. Arent they just so cute???!!!
We had a swimming party for Chandler and her friends at the ARC (rec center) They had a blast playing on the slide and being together. She has some great friends.
One of her friends, Riley, gave her a webkinz for her birthday. She loves these and loves to go online and play on webkinz. Geeze, they are growing up so fast.

6 Months for Hayden!

Oh my gosh, I love this little kid. He turned 6 months old on the 20th. I cant believe it. It is so sad that half of his first year is gone. He is so happy and smiley. I take their snapshot picture every month on their month birthday for the first year so I can see how they grow. He is doing so much fun stuff now. We started him on veggies and he downs 2 jars like nothin.
We took him in for his 6 month appt and yes, he is a lugger!! He weighed in at 19lbs. and 10 oz. and was 28.5 inches. He is 95th percentile for length and 75th for weight. We think he got his weight from Dave and his heighth from me!! haha

Just "Horsin" around!

This guy has horses and he has been telling us forever to come out and see them. We finally went out to see them and oh it was fun. The mare just had a baby 3 weeks ago, so the girls got to see her. They were pretty timid at first but then the older girls warmed right up. Aubrey was afraid of anything that moved. (including the flies)

Mallory got brave enough to pet her. My poor kids are just not around animals that often and that is so my fault. I am not an amimal person. So sad, I know. Seeing these girls with the horses was so cute. We got to go out and see more horse out in the fields.
The girls got to help out with the chores. They got to brush them and feed them and give them treats which was so funny to watch. They would get so scared that the horse was going to bite them.
After all the helping out they all got to go out and ride Sye. Chandler and Mallory got to do it by themselves and against Aubreys will we threw her up and after she got used to it she LOVED it. She is a funny one. After a fun night with the horses the girls now think we need a horse!! Ya right!!

Mallory's Birthday Party!

My friend heard that we were having a party and asked me if we wanted to borrow her bounce house. I was like uh-ya!!! The girls loved it so much. So much for the dainty little tea party we were going to have.
Here are all the girls at the table in our kitchen. We took 2 church tables and put them together and lowered them real low for them. It looks like way more than 8 kids and that is because Chandlers friends came with their sisters and hung out for a bit. We love their friends!!!
All Mallory wanted for her birthday was Kit. She opened up some other things first and when she was done we said thats it, and then Dave went in and brought her out all wrapped up and when she opened it, it was like that priceless moment. Ya, I cried. She even had teary eyes she was so overcome with excitement. She packs her around like she is gold. We cant wait to see the Kit movie in July. Mallory is growing up so much. I cant believe how fast they grow up. I love her so much. She is so sweet and caring. Always looking out for others and is so motherly. We love you Mally!!

Mallory turns 5!!


Mallory turned 5 yesterday!! She had a great day. She wanted a fish cake for her cake this year. We had a teddy bear tea party for her and 8 other little girls. WHOA!! It was so fun though.

Happy Birthday Aubrey!!

Aubrey with her new Gizelle barbie!! She loves Enchanted!
When Aubrey says cheese she closes her eyes so we said open your eyes and she sure did!

One down 2 to go!! We had birthday number 1 this month and it was a success. Aubrey had her 3rd birthday yesterday. She knew it was her birthday at 5am when she came running in and asked is it june "ninef" yet? She was full of energy all day long. She started swimming lessons yesterday with the older girls and thought that was pretty fun. She had to wait all day long for daddy to get home and the girls to get home from dance so she could open her presents. When we would ask her what she wanted for her birthday she would say "treats and Santa." Now this is a girl who knows what she wants. Who doesnt want Santa??? She got a new Gizelle barbie from the Enchanted movie and she packs her around EVERYWHERE!! The girls get to pick what kind of cake they want every year and this year she wanted a ladybug. So I attempted one thanks to Family Fun. Dont look to close! We had a great day! We sure love our little Aubs and cant believe how fast time flies!

Movin' up to 2nd grade!!



Chandler finished 1st grade this week. I seriously had an emotional day thinking of how they just grow up so fast. I was kinda teary that last day of school, Chandler said mom why are you so sad? I told her I didnt want her to grow up and she came back with well maybe I will go to Neverland so I wont grow up! HA Yes, she is holding her American girl. They go every where with us. Mallory had to bring it to her to show her Chandlers school. Her teacher Mrs. Glasco is just about to have a baby. We took the kids to Chuck E Cheese after school to celebrate. I cant believe next year I will have 2 kids in school all day! WOW
