Bday/ Princess on Ice/ Goodbye to Gavin!

Once again I have so much I want to blog about but not enough time to do it so I am making this a free for all post today. I had a great birthday this year, yes maybe not the most exciting but very special none the less. I had running club, Addie had dance and we had a Sunday school party so we just had a little impromptu party at the house that day. Dad made sure there was cake and the kids took care of the rest! (Notice Britann is getting very good with the reaching these days, that kid can't be trusted in your lap anymore when food is anywhere nearby!)
Making a wish, sure hope it comes true!!



This is just a picture after church one day of the girls in the dresses that their Great Grandma Bobo got for them at duck duck goose this year. They fit so well. Thanks Mamaw!

I used to post picture of Nona when she kept Grif and Addie so I couldn't resist the chance to catch Lashonda trying to do some double duty one afternoon. It has been such a blessing since Nona couldn't keep these new kids this year due to health problems to have Lashonda. I am just so sad that that time is coming to an end this summer. Well not hopefully with Lashonda and I but the Ralphs are moving to Hot Springs so our days of sharing the babysitter are closing in. It has been a blessing from above for both sets of my kids to enjoy the company of another all while getting that special attention I so desperately wanted for them while I was working. I just really can't say enough how sad it makes me that there buddies are moving away. I know it just won't be the same without them. Lashonda takes pictures of the kiddos during the day so I had to pay tribute to Gavin and Brit in these next few pictures. I do want to get the word out though that we will be looking hard for another child for Lashonda to watch along with Britann so if anyone who reads this has someone in mind please let me know!!

Just a picture out in front of the condo one weekend with daddy and his girls.


Aunt T and I took the kiddos, along with Uncle B to the Mid America museum back at the end of March and this are a few pictures of Addie learning a little about the cool world of science and mom and Aunt t too for that matter. I had forgotten how much I used to enjoy that place it is so nice to have something like that so handy for the kids.


This mirror really had her freaking out. She kept turning around thinking it would go away and it just kept following her.

Not real sure how she felt about this..


A couple of weeks ago we spent the weekend with Aunt Brandee and Mason and while we were out shopping one day we just so happened to run into no other than the Easter bunny!


These next pictures were taken the week before Easter when Addie Blaire and I got the chance to go with Caron Manning and Kate to Disney Princesses on Ice. I was so glad she had extra tickets because it was so cool. I have to admit that after Mitch and I taking her a few years ago to the Mickey Mouse one that wasn't the best by the way. I was not sure how I would feel about this one but it exceeded my expectations by 100%. Addie Blaire and Kate loved it and I have to admit it was very impressive especially for the money, well that is if you don't count those silly souvenirs they hit you with as you walk in the door!!! (which by the way you can tell we didn't avoid according to the horse in the picture!)

Addie Blaire and Kate. She is the cutest little thing and I do mean little, but with the biggest personality.

Addie Blaire is very into the princesses these days so this was right up her alley. She know all the characters by heart and even most of the songs too!
