Birthday Pictures

We had fun celebrating all the February and March Birthdays this year. I think Peyton's celebration lasted an entire week. He had a sleepover at Carter's(thanks Aunt Jess for a fun time), lunch with Dad, Nickalcade, lots of cake and presents. He got some new clothes, shoes, PlayStation games, and best of all snorkel gear for Mexico which he has been practicing with already.

Mitchell had fun turning 2. He got lots of new shoes, clothes and toys. He loved blowing out the candles on his ice cream cone cupcakes, he wanted to keep doing it over and over again. He has been so much fun lately, we just can't get enough of him.

Thanks to my amazing husband and children, my birthday was also a lot of fun. The parties went on for three days. Ben surprised me with a night out, we played games with friend and my Mom made a great family dinner.

More Priceless Avie Moments

So Tuesday morning she came down the stairs and said, "Jesus told me to wear this." I guess she thought if Jesus told her what to wear I wouldn't make her change this scary out fit.

*Purple tank top in March

*Cute pink skirt

*Black leggings size 2T

*White patten leather Easter shoes

I think this outfit tops them all - can anyone say Brittany Spears? This is a Build-A-Bear outfit she has on. I had to take a picture before I made her put something a little more modest on.

Happy 2nd Birthday Mitchell

Our little Mitchie has officially entered the terrible 2's. However, I have a feeling he is going to be a lot easier this year. He is getting so grown up and finally starting to talk. He tries to keep up with is older brothers, who he thinks are so neat. Our family is having so much fun watching Mitch grow.

Happy 7th Birthday P!!

I can't believe my boy is turning 7. Peyton is the best kid in the whole World. I love this boy so much and I'm sad and excited at the same time that he's growing up. It's so hard to see your first born getting so mature but I love to watch him discover the World. He has so much passion for life, everything he does, he does 110%. He cares deeply for his friends(he's got a huge heart) and his friends look up to him, he's a great example to his little brothers and sister and takes special care of little Mitchie, and he's so smart. I was in labor with Peyton for 36 hours and it was so worth it. Ben and I couldn't get over this beautiful little person, we never imagined we'd love him so much. What an amazing person he's turning out to be, I can't wait to see where life's journey takes him.

"What will I wear in Heaven?"

My little fashionista, Ava asked me this morning, "What will I wear in heaven?" I told her it would probably be a beautiful white dress. Not trusting my answer she told me, "I'm going to plan ahead and pick it out now. When I died it's up to you Mom to make sure I have it on." Only Ava at 4 years old would be concerned about how she's going to look in heaven. We'll have to work on the vanity thing!:) Ava on her 4th Birthday

Update

A little birdy(thanks Annie) told me I needed to update my blog. The problem is, I can't figure out my new camera and posts without picture aren't as fun to read. The truth is I've been too lazy, besides Ben can do it for me, only he's too busy/tired when I think about it. He's out of town this week so I guess I'll work on it while he's gone.

Happy Birthday Jesi!

I just wanted to wish my sister-in-law a very Happy Birthday. I'm so glad my brother married a girl that is so amazing. Jes, you're a great example to me and I love you to death. Thanks for all you do for me and my family, my Dad, and most of of all for putting up with Ryan(it takes a special person). You two are perfect for each other. You both deal with lifes challenges better than most people ever could. I hope you have a great day:)!!
