Lauren in a nutshell-My baby isn't a baby anymore. On December 13th she turned one years old. She didn't like cake so we gave her the ice cream instead. Later she warmed up to the cake and made a wonderful first cake mess.
My baby isn't so little anymore. She walking, talking and getting into everything. She loves the wagon outside, finding every opportunity to climb in and sit, looking around, feeling real BIG.
For Halloween my baby was kitty in pajamas. To make it easy on me of course just in case she fell asleep I could just lay her down.
Lauren's first words were Dada and Jetta(the dog), I was so mad. What happened to mom. I got over that one quick because she kept saying them so cute.
Lauren loves Jamba Juice. She could hardly keep the straw out of her mouth it was hilarous. She screamed bloody murder when it was done, poor thing.
She still sucks on her arm for comfort. Even when she is awake.
Brooklyn in a nutshell-The girl is going to be married with those na na's in her mouth. Yes! one Na Na would do, not for Brooklyn, three is perfect. Usually one has to touch her nose or her cheek.
Brooklyn's best friend is Lily. Together they get into so much trouble. Here Brooklyn was making sure Lily had her makeup on.
Over my dead body will she be driving. She is the worst driver her age could imagine. She almost ran me over the stinker and thought it was funny.
Brooklyn is so cute and funny! We had a ball at the Mc Donalds play place, she was acting like a little monkey.
Brooklyn turned 3 on December 12. We adorned her in princess jewels and had a beautiful flower cake. This was the first time that her birthday really ment something to her. She is very cute.
Ella in a nut shell-We finally found what my baby girl loves, Cheerleading! We are so excited for her. She really shines out there on the football field. The skirt had alot to do with it of course. She feels the need to wear a skirt everyday; so unlike her mom.
Of course the princess did every princess girl proud by painting her and her sisters nails at the SMU football game. It was the only thing that kept them from being bored.
She Loves to be pampered and so church is a favorite for her. I can do her hair, she gets to wear makeup and she struts her stuff around.
We attempted a season of soccer and it will be our last. She did well the first two games, but when she couldn't understand that she couldn't wear a skirt she was done with the whole deal. Of course I was sad:(
Joshua in a nutshell-what's there to say! My boy went as Iron Man for Halloween and ate himself silly with cupcakes candy and who knows what.
At the State Fair this year we went to the Back Yard Circus, Joshua was chosen to be evil conevil and got shot out of a cannon. He loved every minute of it! I need to watch him or he'll end up having that job for a career.
The other high light for Joshua was the trampoline that Grandma and Grandpa bought for the family. Not a day goes by that he doesn't want to go out there and show off his moves.
Joshua is also GAH GAH over Santa. He couldn't wait to tell him everything that he wanted and though we explained the true meaning of Christmas, He paid little attention and went on telling.
Austin in a nutshell for 2008- He is quite the athlete and we have enjoyed watching him play soccer, football and now basketball. He loves to push himself and tries very hard to be an asset to the team.
The other part of his life that he so loves, is football. He would be at every SMU football game if he could. It's fun to watch him yell at the officals, the players and argue with those around him from the opposing team. It's all in fun and nothing gets to out of hand.
For Halloween this year, we went cheap and he went as a modern day vampire. I must say he could be on Twilight!
