She's not a toddler anymore...SHE IS MY BEAUTIFUL LITTLE GIRL!

I just cant say enough how amazing and beautiful this little girl is inside and out. She fills my entire world with so much joy and love. She is truly my best friend. Max has always said that right out the womb she was a mama's girl and we were connected at the hip. For the longest time it was just me and her 24-7, especially because I stayed home with her just the two of us. She has grown so much this last year, wow! She has matured, gained so much knowledge, says things that seriously have us rolling. I think if you asked people to sum Grace up everyone would say the same thing....she is all personality! She has been our hardest child but Max always says she is also the funniest and the most entertaining ;) We love her so much and hope that she had the best birthday ever.
If anyone knows me they know I go nuts over birthdays. I just think it is their one special time every year and is such an accomplishment that they need to feel so special. So I go all out on the invites, I have Grace help me plan it. This year she was dying to do it at Jungle Jims. I am not much for those kind of parties but we went with it and she had the funnest time of her life. She had like 15 friends there (which almost drove me nutty) and she had her 4 year old birthday outfit on so everyone knew she was a birthday girl! Then of course on Saturday night she went to sleep and we decorated her door and the house and had another couple presents in the living room for her real birthday day. I think one of my favorite moments wasn't all the exciting party stuff or presents but when we sat down just Grace, daddy, and I and had our quiet little tea party with her tea set today. She is so funny and of course daddy gets in trouble for not holding the tea cups right ;) But, every year daddy and I tell her the story of her coming into this world 4 years ago and how happy and excited we were. She always cracks up at the party when daddy tells her he cried like a baby. She thinks that is so funny. I love these special moments we have with her. Especially with lil sis we dont get these moments very often where she has daddy and I all to herself. So we try to make it happen on this special day.
I have so many pictures but my sister in law has them on her camera because I hired her as the photographer..j/k not really but kind of ;) So that I could chase after crazy kids. More pics to come of her special day!
I dont know if any of you have little girls that love these little princess figuriens as much as my little one does but oh my goodness. She got her first set on her 2nd bday and I tell you they are still her number one. She has about 40 of them (no joke) and all their little castles ect. You name it she has it. The funniest part about it is that she can play for hours using her imagination with these things. So they came out with the new wedding sets of them and she was so excited to see I got them and put them on her cake :)

VaLEnTiNEs

We had a great Valentines Day...Grace made all her little friends homemade cards and delivered them. Then we made a sign for daddy to surprise him when he got home. Grace woke up and first thing she said that morning was we need to hurry and get pretty for daddy. So cute! Daddy got Grace another music card. Gracie thinks this is better than any toy in the world...she just opens it and dances away. The card this year was a taylor swift song and she loved it. Then he of course got us girls flowers, chocolates, and stuffed animals.



This hair is so long...it just keeps growing and now I finally want to trim a couple of inches off and Grace fights me on it. It is pretty bad when it gets caught in her underwear, ect. LOL I am like Grace it is too long and to the point where it is inconvinent. Oh well I am not going to fight her on it...she is a little diva I tell you!


Dont mind my little spit up babies throw up on her shirt. I dont think we ever have a shirt without throw up on it :)
LOVES carrots!


Loves her rice cereal ;)

Third times a CHARM....Update on Faith

Max has finally got a kid that looks EXACTLY like him. Our little Faith Drew looks just like her daddy from her eye's to her smile, she even has a little bit of red in her hair???? So funny. The only thing she got from her mama is....YEP you guessed it, MY EARS!
Faith is 5 months old now. I will say it again...where does the time go? I find myself not rushing things like I did with Grace. I want Faith to be a baby for as long as possible so I even held off on the cereal. She did do pretty well with it tonight but I still think I might wait another month to try it again :) She is my little angel and such a good baby.






I came upstairs and once again had left this little one with her daddy...LOL. He had her sitting up in her high chair like a big girl. I guess on number 3 you just do whatever you want and realize it isn't that big of a deal, :) I was like oh my heck she actually did fit.
Loves her bathtime

Another Daddy Daughter moment...Yes he gave my 4 month old at the time some frosting! He was like look she loves it. I was like um no pure sugar for the baby please!
Hmmm whats this mama...I like daddy he gives me the good stuff!
