Ainsley's Birthday

It's hard to believe my baby is 1! We had a fun day to celebrate. Ainsley's brothers and sisters were so excited! She had no clue what was going on. She loved her cake and attacked it harder then any of her siblings.

Lately...

Ainsley is really growing! She is really active. I love it when she is sleeping.Snuggled next to her dad.Getting so big!NEW TOPIC...
School was out a couple of weeks ago. Next year Austin, Parker, and McCall will be transferring to Creekside Elementary School in our neighborhood. While it will be nice (for me) not to have to spend so much time in the car, we will really miss Sycamore. Austin started kindergarten 5 years ago and we have had a wonderful experience here. With his teacher Mrs. Turpen...he had her for 3rd grade and 4th grade.

Hayden's Birthday

Hayden turned 4! Hayden is our kid that gets super excited about everything and you can tell by how big her eyes get! She is our little "sneaker" who steals treats and goodies and hides (sometimes it takes me days to find the evidence). She is a huge help to me with Ainsley and can keep her entertained for hours (okay...maybe minutes). She wants to be included in everything and gets mad when the kids tell her she is too little. She is a total "daddy's girl" and would choose him over anyone else. She has a high pitched voice that is like nails on a chalkboard but at times can melt your heart. We love our little Hayden!


Hayden had her first "friend" birthday party.

Aunt Wendy painted faces at the party.



Lots of little girls!

Happy Birthday Hayden!

Scary Parker got his face painted and wanted me to take a picture. He scared all the little kids (at home...not at the party)!

Shaky voice

Hayden loves to sing using her shaky voice.

Hayden and Clara

Hayden and her cousin Clara, are the best of friends. They have not always gotten along. Since Hayden is 9 months older she always thought Clara was too little to play with her. Now they are like 2 peas in a pod!





McCall's Dance Recital

Before the performance.

With her dad
McCall had her evening dance recital a few weeks ago. Her little dance was cute but they got mixed up in a few parts. I went to the afternoon performance and they did better. I'm not sure if she is learning that much in dance but she sure has fun and looks cute. We kind of snuck the camcorder in. While Jeremy was recording, some rude and very late person walked in front of him to sit down and it got a little messed up.
