Mya's 3 year stats.

Height: 37 inches...48%

Weight: 30lb....42%

Mya is doing great. She is super shy around anyone new (she gets that from me, I was the same way when I was little). She LOVES to play barbies and dress up and takes a purse with her wherever she goes. She likes to put tights or soft pants on her head and pretends they are ponytails. Hey, when you don't have much hair you have to improvise..lol. She still absolutely loves Dora and watches it every morning when she wakes up. Her newest thing is she loves to hide things. If I cant find something I can usually find it in the butcher block, under the bathroom sink, in her shopping cart or in her purse. What a silly girl! She has such a sweet little thing and has such a kind heart.

6 month stats.

He is doing AWESOME and the Dr. says he is super STRONG (his daddy thinks thats cool). He army crawls everywhere and is sitting great. He is sooo close to crawling and pulled up to the chair the other day (mom does NOT think that is cool, she wants him to stay little forever).

Mya's Birthday!

Mya's Birthday was on the 7th of June and she turned 3.

We let her open her swimming suit in the morning because we were meeting friends at the pool for her Birthday.

After the pool we came home and had cake and ice cream and opened presents. She wanted a Dora cake so Annie decorated her cake for her. It turned out so cute and she LOVED it.

She was pretty insitant about inviting her nursery leader to her party and so we did...lol. We are in a small branch so we are all friends anyways but I just thought it was funny. That is Sister Wilson in the back ground.

She had a wonderful day and loved all of her gifts. Thank You everyone!!

Change!

Nuff Said!

Horrific experience.

I was coming back home yesterday from Walmart and witnessed something horrible. I was waiting to turn right and a big black truck ran a red light and hit a motorcyclist. I wont get into any details but needless to say I was very thankful my children didn't see. I cried the whole way home and thinking about it gets me teary eyed. The scariest thing is...I was going to turn left to go to the dollar store but decided last second not to because Hope was going to be getting off the bus and I didn't want to miss her. Thankfully I listened to the prompting or my 3 youngest and I could have been included in that horrible accident. It just made me realize how your whole life can change in a half a second and how dumb it is to be so grouchy because my house isn't as clean as I want it. I am still shaken up about it and it is something I will not soon forget. Tell your loved ones you love them and give them extra hugs and kisses, I know I will.

First food.

We started to feed Trey rice cereal this week and he LOVES it! He ate the whole bowl. The girls would only eat a few bites the first time but he took to it like a champ. From the looks of things he needs some extra calories because he is severely malnutritioned.....ha ha! I wish I would have gotten a picture of his legs, they get stuck in the bumbo...lol. I love, love, love this chubby little man!!

I have a 9 year old!

Can you believe that we have a 9 year old!! I can't! This year for her birthday, I decided to let her have a sleepover with 4 of her friends. They had SOOO much fun! Some of the girls did not go to sleep until 4:00 in the morning. Needless to say, Hope had a 3 hour nap the next day. It was alot of fun....LOUD...but fun.

Mackenzie, Kinber, Malarie and Hope. Kendall had already left before I could get a picture of all of them.

This is the cake that I decorated in 5 min. (literally). It is made of fruit by the foot and fruit snacks. I was planning on making her a fondant cake for her real birthday on Monday and cupcakes for her class that day too, so I figured I was good. However, Ellie asked Hope the night before the party what kind of cake they were eating at her birthday party and Hope politely said....we are not having cake (pause) thats kind of weird not to have cake at your birthday party.....soooooo I hurried and whipped this up while she was at school. She was very surprised and happy about it.

Here she is on her real birthday with her real birthday cake.

My friend Annie and I made this cake. It was my first fondant cake ever and I thought it turned out super cute. Thanks Annie for the help!

Hope had asked for a scrapbooking kit for her birthday so she got it and some clothes from us. The Shaws and G. George gave her some super cute clothes too. She was in desperate need of some summer clothes. My Mom gave her the cutest little birthstone necklace with her name engraved on it and G & G Gladwell gave her a Visa gift card. She thought that was AWESOME and thought she was super cool using it too....funny kid! Thank you so much everyone. She LOVED everything!!

Happy Birthday Hopey. We LOVE You!!!
