Claire's Class Party!

Claire bear had a blast at her class party yesterday! She wanted a purple birthday...at least that's what she told me The kids enjoyed snacks and cupcakes...yummy! Gourmet Tiger made the cutest purple princess crown sugar cookies for a goody treat to take home, but I forgot to take a picture. Oh well. Still, can't believe she's 3! Ugh!

Happy Birthday little one!

Happy 3rd Birthday Claire Bear!

Happy Birthday baby girl!
I love you.

Silly girl.

Make a wish!

Snuggle time with mommy.

A birthday is more fun with friends and family.

Presents!

Happy birthday Claire Bear. I can't believe you're three already! Time just flies! We love you so very much and I hope you get everything your silly lil heart desires!

Mommy

Silly Silly Girl!

What can I say about Claire besides she's such a silly silly girl! She cracks me up ALL day long! She has the funniest personality and people just seem to gravitate towards her like a magnet! She's an independent soul and definitely a leader. She turns three in a couple weeks and says she wants a Spider man birthday. I can't believe she'll be three! It's flown by! Can't wait to see what she does next! Stay tuned!!!

All Grown Up!

Me at the ripe ole age of 3.

Came across this photo...I've posted it before, but I thought I would again to remind myself....and others just how very fast we 'grow up'. It's like you blink and your little one is a young man or woman....it's frightening! SO...cherish these lil moments with them! Give more hugs and kisses than you can count! Play in the rain with them....love them endlessly cause before you know it...they'll be all grown up.

Hats or Heels??

Mally and Claire in Kimbell's clothes.
What beautiful heels you have!

That's my girl!

Hats or heels??? That's the BIG question of the day. It seems like my girls have the best of both worlds, and I'm SO glad! They love being girlie girls with their makeup kits, hair bows, dolls, and bubble baths. On the other hand, they can get dirty and be tough just like their brother. Or just enjoy hanging out with the guys. Claire STILL thinks she can pee standing up...goodness me! So what ya think...hats or heels?? I say both! Why not enjoy a lil of both worlds!? Life's too short ya know. Enjoy it!

Everyone seemed to have a great time. The kids played like old friends that have known each other forever. They all change so much from year to year...it amazes me! Can't wait til next year guys! Scott and Jennifer, you better not stand us up again! JK

Happy New Year everyone!

It's the Little Things in Life.

Mally and Claire got one of those really cool See-Saws for Christmas. They were still in their pajamas when they couldn't resist the urge to run out and test drive it. They were in absolute heaven! Just look at those faces!

As I stood there watching and laughing I realized that this little moment is the type we often don't take the time to cherish and hold dear. It's the little things in life that make me so very happy. What about you??
