6 days ago . . . this handsome, funny, and super sweet little man turned 1 year old! i have no idea where this year has gone . . . but i do know that we have completely fallen for this sweet boy!

he has a personality that can make even the grouchiest person smile. he is a big flirt. he loves his sisters. he loves his milk. he loves food. he loves making silly faces. he loves to growl. he loves to snuggle. he loves when his mama makes silly faces. he loves saying, "oooooo."

we are learning everyday the joys of a little boy.

we know we are blessed . . . and we thank god everyday for this little 1 year old man!

frick and frack are back . . .

after taking a 3 week vacation at their nana and pops' . . .

frick and frack (aka brown eyes and shrimp) are back home . . .

and back to school!

i tried and tried and tried again to get these photos posted yesterday on their first day of school . . . but blogger was not being very nice and wouldn't let me!

six and the big 3-0 . . .

today is that special day that little miss and i share . . . our birthday!

she is a big 6 year old now. and me . . . the big 3-0! i told sean last night that i will officially be old and one of my big brothers confirmed that on my facebook page today. so . . . i am now considered old . . . even though i don't feel the slightest bit old!

i can't believe our baby girl is six . . . time sure does fly by when you are having fun! little miss is probably the best big sister ever. she loves all things arts and crafts. not so much love for princess stuff. she loves quoting sponge bob. not so much love for clothes other than t-shirts and knit cheer shorts. she loves playing with friends. not so much love for brushing her hair in the mornings. she loves all sweet treats.

so . . . she will love the petit fours that i picked up from the local bakery today for her! she told me she wanted a trampoline, a pool, and a camera for her birthday. she is getting 1 of those . . . and i'm sure it's not too hard to figure out which one!

happy birthday little miss! i can't wait to see what the next year has in store for us!
