ava's birthday party




ava turned 4.
she loves jessie from toy story. she has for like 2 years now.
so, she wanted a cowgirl birthday party.
and that's what she got.


the party goers decorated paper bag cowgirl vests.

they made carmel apples dipped in m&ms, chocolate chips and heath bar chunks.
they were quite yummy.

sunflower centerpiece.

mason jars filled with cowgirl goodies.

her guests sipped on IBC root beers and ate chocolate cake.

ava's birthday highlights:
getting to dress up like jessie.
dancing to the hoedown throwdown song a gazillion times.
blowing out her candles.
getting two new dance outfits.
playing the rattlesnack hot potato game.
and of course, being the center of attention ;)

eden's new wardrobe

i was scrolling through pictures on my camera and came across some ones with eden as naked as a jay bird riding ava's bike.
every now and then, jason grabs the camera and captures some pretty hilarious events that i get to laugh at days later.

right now, eden is sort of going through a naked stage.
i have to put her diaper back on and redress her at least 30 times a day.
it's pretty ridiculous.
but, in her defense, it is the end of september and still a 105 degress outside, so if i could get away with running around naked anywhere and everywhere, i would do it to.
i just hope she grows out of it soon and i don't find her living in a nudest colony in 20 years.
gross.
let's face it, babies are way cuter naked than old people.
sorry for the visual.

oh baby!


little miss eden is trying to put a diaper on her baby.
it's a good thing she is practing because come march she is going to be a big sister.
that would equate to....
i am pregnant and having a baby this spring ;)

i feel like i can finally blog again without feeling like i am going to vomit all over the place.
so far, i am following the boy pattern pregnancy but i guess i will have to wait a couple of more weeks to confirm if that is true or not.
at least, i can finally get my butt off the couch now and start showing my kids a little attention.
i think they thought they lost thier mom there for a while.
well, technically they did.
but thanks to mr. mom jason, they were well taken care of.
i love love my husband :)
