Happy Birthday Lindsey!

Our little girl is 4! Unbelievable how quickly time goes. You are such a blessing to us, Lindsey. Over the past year, you have kept us on our toes! You are a strong-willed, intelligent, caring girl. Don't ever stop speaking your mind or trying something new.! You are learning to be a great big sister/little sister. We are so proud of you! You make every day special. We love you, sweet-angel-baby-pumpkin-love!

Adventures of a 3 year old.

No more can we say, "She's only 3." Our little girl is hitting the preschool set. She is onto bigger and better things. In honor of her final day as a 3 year old, I bring you some of

Lindsey's Quotes

1. "Cupea" - this is her word for the backyard. Even though she knows the word backyard, she uses her word for it.

2. "Because it is just too big"- this is her answer sometimes to the question "Why?"

3. "Leave me alone, me."

4. "It's my brudder/sister" - when Natalie came home, I think she was a little confused with the new family dynamic.

5. "Cheese and cupy, cupy, cupy" - this was her silly way to refer to mac-n-cheese.

6. "All these....."- she says this alot. Mostly when she is really excited about something new. When she gets new crayons, "look at all these colors", when we have family over, " all these family".

7. "Dancing in my panties"- when she is doing the pee-pee dance, she says she doesn't have to go potty, she is just "dancing in my panties".

8. "Talk to him/her" - When she gets told no from one of us, she runs to the other and tells on them. Then she says "talk to him/her". It's pretty funny.

9. "You tripped my....." - If I have dropped her book, moved her toy, took her blanket.....she uses this phrase.

10. "Baby Waddle"- Her name for the game, Elfun.


We can't wait to see what her 4th year has in store for us!

Giddyup! 

One more. 

She loves Michael. 

M-I-C, K-E-Y 

M-O-U-S-E!!!! 

Happy Birthday!

Well, it's that time again, Dad! Remember, you can run, but you can't hide. You will have cake, ice cream, and presents.....and you will like it! Hope you have a terrific day!

I think it is so cute when she crosses her ankles.......especially in sweet little pants like these! 

Sweet pea. 

After lunch yesterday, without washing up..........yes that is mac-n-cheese....she ran to her room to open up the mail that arrived. She got 3 cards and was super excited!  

When I look at this picture, I see her sitting on the ground helping make the homecoming float, signs for student council, or scenery for drama. I know, I am jumping ahead.  

The artists in action! 

A friend from Tyler's social group gave him all of these Thomas trains! It sure has kept him busy! 

Natalie, as a fairy ballerina?

I took so many photos....sorry to post so many. I really couldn't choose. There really are so many other cute ones! Natalie was so active while I was trying to take the photos. I had the lavendar sheet with the beautiful purple blanket(made by Aunt Janice....so soft!) all set up. But, Natalie had other plans! When I would back away to snap a pic, she would grab the blanket or sheet, or both and try to eat them. So, needless to say, there are alot of the photos with big wads of a sheet, a blanket, or neither! No matter, she is still beautiful.

I am going to post this adorable photo...... with the hopes of scanning a photo of my Mom's baby photo very soon! You won't believe the resemblence!

Caught in a fit of giggles. 

LOVE this one. 

Little Miss Bright Eyes! 

Does her hair look like auburn to you? May be the lighting 

Her "tutu" is somewhat straight in this one. 

Sweetness. 

Soaking up the sun! 

By the way................

I think I finally fixed the settings to accept comments. Anyone can leave them....blogger or not. Just thought all my readers (like there are so many, ha!) might like to try it out.

Could this be any cuter?

Don't you want to nibble on those legs? More photos to follow!

Our own little "Bridget"!

If you have watched the show, "Medium", you understand my reference. Bridget is a cute little girl on the show. She has a mind of her own. One day she may wear her bike helmet everywhere she goes, or a cape, or rainboots. She has messy, unruly hair.....in a cute way. She says what she feels and is very passionate about it. She is a toughie, but oh, so sweet too! Smart? boy, is she smart. Of course, Lindsey is all of these things and so much more.............Did I mention, cute?

You need to be safe while working on the computer!!! 

The apple of our eyes! 

Happy Birthday Kaitlynn! I hope you had a great day yesterday! Have a fun time in New York!!!! We love you! 

This makes me laugh....it's as though she is saying "What?". 

This was one of Lindsey's favorite toys.....Miranda's too, right Stacy? Now it is Natalie's favorite. Isn't it fun?
