Gracie's 4th Birthday!

We had a very busy week and weekend; we had Gracie's Disney Princess birthday party. As usual, we do too much and over exhaust overselves. Seeing Gracie's expressions and enthusiam made it all worth while. Mimi & T-Ma drove from Houston to help us get ready. Thank you both very much for all of your help and hard work :) Gracie got a "big" girl bike for her birthday! She had such a wonderful time riding it. She didn't want to go to school the morning of her birthday because she didn't want to leave her Princess Bike behind. When we mentioned "Mommy" was going to bring cupcakes to school, she was out the door. Kenny & I are amazed each day at how grown up she is. We still see her as our little girl. We both know that's how we will always see her.

(She really was excited about her bike, the brakes were freaking her out a little bit)





























Cupcakes at school! Although, after seeing the kids just LICK the frosting from the cupcake, I think next year I will just bring cookies!


































Our little princess.....even though Sleeping Beauty is her FAVORITE princess, this year, she decided to be Snow White. I hope we can reuse the costume for Halloween (keep your fingers crossed she doesn't change her mind)!






































How cute are these wall decals?














How BEAUTIFUL is this cake? I was truly amazed that it turned out better than what I had expected. When I was talking to the baker on Friday, I was getting extremely nervous because she was talking 100 miles+ - kuddos to her!








































































































T-Ma, Gracie doesn't sleep without her new pillow and blanket!















All of the kids had a wonderful time, as you can see, Brandon was quite the clown.














I'm not sure if Maudie actually enjoyed the dance, but Lee sure did have a good time dancing.




















Even Cameron put on a party hat and joined in!

The Kids Are Growing!

Gracie and Cameron went to the dr. for their check ups. Gracie had her 4 year check up and Cameron had his 4 month check up. Gracie weighs 40 pounds 39 1/ inches. She is now in the 75th percentile. She has always been in the 95th so she's right where she should be for her age. Cameron weighs 17 pounds 14 oz., he is in the 90th percentile. We were blessed with healthy kids!

Cameron has become more aware of all of his surroundings. He gets very excited playing with his toys. He loves to bite this poor little elephant.











































Gracie is making her strawberry milk on her own! She took the milk and syrup out of the refrigerator all by herself, it was amazing that she was once the size of our little Cameron!
