Presents for the Birthday Princess

A Princess' dream come true, a unicorn!! :)

Home movies, take one...

"a big storm cloud to you...
and there's a princess!
and he's runned around,
and he's run to dad's house!
and he's ruuuuuun a-round, and 'livia's run, and Mommy run and Daddy run to MY house.
... and the wind's gonna blow and blow and blow and blow a house DOWN!!"

Sweet!!!

It's 7:30pm on Friday night, we've had dinner, (yummy porkchops in mushroom cream sauce) the kitchen is clean, (thanks to my amazing hubby) and both girls are bathed and bed. We are such a great team! Mom & Dad FTW!!! :)

Happy Friday!

Child Labor at it's cutest :)

WOOO HOO!! SPRING BREAK!!

So, our nephew TJ is staying with us this week for Spring Break and we are having such a BLAST!! We have been super busy doing crafts, playing outside, taking trips to the park...
(Don't worry, I've taken a bunch of pics and I promise to post them all really soon!)


On a side note Olivia had a check up today and here are her stats:

She weighed in at 14lbs. and measured 25 inches long

She is in the 50th percentile for weight and 75th percentile for height.
Poor Livi had to get 3 shots again this time. She's been such a trooper though and is still all smiles! She also gets to start eating solids now and enjoyed a yummy bowl of bananas & rice cereal this afternoon. :)


Well, we only have 2 more days with TJ and I know I'm going to be really sad to see him go. It's been great catching up with the little guy after so long, and what we're realizing, is that he is not the same silly little TJ we once knew. Though he is still quite silly, he is growing into such a bright, caring, and funny little dude. Alyssa completely adores him and is LOVING having someone to play with. And even though I'm super exhausted by the end of the day, and way behind on a lot of things, I wouldn't trade this time that I have with the kids for anything! I feel extremely blessed and thank God for it all. Watching these little ones grow up is definitely the saddest and most wonderful thing in the world!

And here are the pictures I promised:

Olivia's first ride on the swing!

She LOVED it!
