Happy Birthday Rachel

For as much as I love this girl, it is pretty sad that I don't have a single picture of us to show for it (I had to steal this picture off of her blog!) Rachel is seriously one of my favorite people! We have so much fun laughing about our crazy lives as mothers, and sharing yummy recipes to try on our hubbies (she loves eating as much, if not more, than me.. if you can believe that!) Rach, I am so grateful for your friendship and I am so glad you were born!

Happy Birthday :O)

Happy Birthday Thais!

Friday was Thais's actual birthday and to celebrate we met up with a few friends and spent the day at the Zoo!




Jamie and Jaylee were there...

Lil Peepers...



and here's Jenn feeding fishy crackers to all of our little animals.


Thais and I posing in front of the elephants.


I just want to give a big shout out to these two elephants who have unknowingly assisted me with potty training. Thais was completely fasinated when she saw one of these guys go potty and now it is her favorite topic of conversation. I will say, "Thais can you go potty?" and she will of course have to bring up how elephants go potty too...so now she wants to be cool like the elephants. Way to go guys!

The whole Gang. Thanks for coming and celebrating Thais's Birthday :O)

Happy Birthday Nana!

I know this is kind of a funny picture to post, but I just love this picture because it capture's Nana's humor and young girl spirit. I love my mother in law for so many reasons, but especially because she is such a wonderful mother and nana to the two people I adore the most. She has such a huge heart and she's the life of the party, and it's no wonder that Nana and Candy are Thais's two favorite subjects!

Marilynn, I just love you so much and I am so glad you were born :O)

Happy Birthday!!!
