Birthday Bash

It's party time! Make it a good wish!

This little lady was having a BLAST!

Reading Buddies

I never know what these two will be up to. It was really quiet in the house so I went to check on them. Luckily, they were only catching up on the Highlights Magazines.

BIG week, BIG TIME!

It's that time of year for H's birthday photos. Getting these two to get dressed and outta the car was very challenging! I guess the pictures are worth it though. 

It's been a big and exciting week in our land. There's the number FIVE birthday (how did that happen SOOOOO fast?), Wavy used the toilet THREE times (no joke! but I'm not going to push it, we have a vaca coming up and I'm not making a million stops at nasty, public restrooms) and (drum roll please) H started reading! Yay, I'm so excited and proud of the lil man!

TGIF

Sometimes Wavy will be walking around and she'll feel the urge to stand on her head...actually this happens pretty often :)

Second Time Mama

I have a couple of friends who are pregnant with their second children so I've been reflecting quite a bit on being a second time mama. Someone told me it's TWICE the work but DOUBLE the fun. I couldn't image more work but it true but it's definitely made life funner! 

With Harrison, we worried about every little bump and bruise. I remember it taking HOURS to drive back from the coast b/c he would cry and we would pull over. And the time, Ryan and Darren took the boys hiking...30 minute ride turned into 3 hours. We read to H every single night and waited on him hand and foot. 

Fast forward to baby #2 and your whole outlook changes. I really ENJOY every moment of raising them now. I no longer stress over the small stuff. If they cry, it's not the end of the world, they probably just need a hug and they'll forget all about it in five minutes. As I've said before...life is good.

Bow Legged H

Everyday I go through H's backpack and somedays I actually find artwork! I absolutely LOVE this drawing. He told me he drew his shoes too! I really had no idea he was bow legged ;) This one is definitely frame worthy.

Easter 2013

Happy Easter Ya'll! I love that H automatically puts his arm around lil sis.

This was the best pic of the fan. Almost everyone's eyes are opened.

We bought Waverly's dress when she was still a baby. It's made from a vintage tablecloth. 

These two are up to no good...not really :)
