Jessie is 7..Happy Birthday

Jessie's Birthday started with lunch at Red Robin. We arrived early to help Jackie and wait for a few girls to show up. Maggie waited patiently for the girls to arrive. She ran to Jessie when she came in the door. She loves all of her cousins.


The Gang




Jessie gets embarrassed easily. She was mortified when they started singing to her. She wouldn't eat the ice cream. I fed it to her and she was fine.


Just the Girls


Jessie didn't want the boys to be in the picture but I insisted that we have at least one picture with them in it.


I made special treats for the party. I made a pudding trifle in a goblet and chocolate dipped marshmallows with sprinkles. The girls loved them.







Maggie was excited to learn how to ice skate.


Jessie sat out for a moment after going around the ice skating rink a whole time


Another Party for the Family


THE GUESTS



THE PRESENTS



THE CAKE







Who is the best Hannah Montana?









Happy Saint Patrick's Day




Boyd is Mobile

My little man has reached a new milestone. He can crawl now. He has been able to army crawl for a few weeks now but just in the last week he has started to crawl on his hands and knees. It has taken him a little longer to figure out how to move around than his big sister. Maggie was crawling long before 9 months. She was almost walking by now.





Maggie's favorite place to explore was the exersaucer. I thought it was funny that Boyd went right to it when he was able to crawl.






He is definitely a boy. He loves wheels already!








Baby Shower for Shellee and Leila

I have been planning this baby shower from the moment I found out that Kaleo and Shellee were going to be getting a baby. I was so excited for them. They deserved to have the best baby shower ever. So that is what I was going to give them. I wanted to do so much more but had to stop myself somewhere. It turned out to be beautiful and everyone had a great time. Thanks you to everyone who helped. Ali you are awesome.

I have come to the realization that I would love to be a party planner. I had a blast planning this one. Now I have to just get all the fun stuff to do the parties with. Watch out Jeremy's pocketbook. Haha.

Jeremy helped with the cute invites.
Ali has some really fun tiered plate holders and dishes. Thanks for helping decorate and set-up. It looked amazing!

The cake was decorated by Terry Hess. Isn't it Beautiful?





I loved how the diaper castle turned out. Thank you Jeremy, Andrew and Steph for your help.

A Visit with Family

It was so nice to have Andrew and Stephanie here for a visit. It is nice to have family over especially ones we don't get to visit with as much as we would like. We really didn't do that much. We took them out to dinner on Thursday night to Jeremy's favorite restaurant. On Friday I had to set up and since Boys was up most of the night sick Jeremy stayed home to help me with the kids. I set up for my baby shower and then came back home to visit with the family. Even though both families had a lot going on we still had a great time with each other. Maggie, David and Boyd had a great time playing. And of course, I took lots of pictures.


We provide only the best for our guest! Yep, this would be the best type of Seattle rain you can get.













Andrew and Stephanie Just Relaxing


Andrew and Stephanie played around on my Silhouette when I was setting up for my friends baby shower. They printed off "Happy Easter" for my front door and Easter eggs. My door is so cute now. Thanks guys.



Boyd lovin his Aunt Stephanie


I have found the best type of entertainment of kids. I had extra balloons from the baby shower I gave for my friend. The kids loved them. They laughed like crazy. I would throw them up in the air and they would fall down on David and Maggie. Boyd even enjoyed watching them go up and down. Cheap entertainment!







David found Uncle Jeremy's hat stash. Go Seahawks.




Andrew had Chocolate chip pancakes with cookie dough ice cream for dinner. More like dessert. David enjoyed it too!



The last picture is Stephanie's but how could I not post it on my blog too. It is so cute. We will miss you guys. See you soon!
