The 3 Amigos Artwork & My Princess

While I was rocking Susan's son Ben to sleep, the 3 amigos (Emma, Jack & Jake) had fun with the crayons. First they started with the dresser .....

Nice artwork eh?

Next the attacked the car track.....

Next the wicker table.....

And Finally...... THE CARPET!
Needless to say, I was not very happy :(

I bought Emma an Easter dress today and it is so adorable that she wanted to put it on immediately when we got home. Isn't my camera awesome. This almost looks like a professional took it.

I just love this girl so much!!

It is so hard for me to get her to look straight into the camera.

Emma in her princess dress with her magic wand. Cause all princesses need a magic wand right??

Look at how adorable they are taking a nap together.

Silly Jack, Emma's new dress & Trains

Jack being silly in bed.

My sweet little man!
(don't laugh Susan! He can be sweet even if he is in the middle of his terrible 2's)

So adorable.

Valentine's Day dress I made for Emma.

She was so excited that I was making her a dress. She kept asking me if I was done because she wanted to put it on right then.

You know she cannot be still when I take her picture. Good thing I got a new camera!

More silly pictures.

I made her hairband too. It is reversible. Black on one side, Red and white polks on the other.

My sweet pea!

My princess watching Jack playing with his new train tracks!

Jack using the remote to make his new train work!
So much fun! This set is Geo Trax by Fisher Price.

Emma put her bear on the tracks.

I am having so much fun!

Tonight we went to my brother's house to celebrate Laney's 5th birthday. Wow!! How can she be that old already?? They grow up so fast. We had a great time and Emma and Jack enjoyed playing with their cousins so much. Emma actually threw a fit when it was time to go. She wanted to stay and play with her cousin Laney.

New Year's Eve & Cousins

Krissy, Carrie & Trish. It is hard to believe that I have known these girls for 20+ years.

Susan, Lee & Gina. I set Susan & Lee up 9 years ago!

Bobby & Gina. Not sure who took our picture, but somehow we always get pictures taken where they cut off our heads.
Matt & Krissy. They make an adorable couple.

The guys!

Thanks Aaron for hosting the New Year's Eve party at your house.

Gina, Susan & Krissy. These are two of my best friends. Can't you tell they are entertaining? Probably why I keep them around.
Susan and Lee. They make a great couple.

Lee & Bobby

My parents called and asked if my kids could come and spend the night for New Year's Eve. We dropped them off and picked up Susan and Lee. We drove over to Trish & Aaron's house for a New Year's Eve party. It was so great spending New Years with some of my oldest friends. It is so crazy that all the girls that were there I have known since I was 16! We had the best time. My friend Trish set up a Newlywed Game with all the questions written out and gifts! Bobby and I won! We also played a movies game from a DVD. Susan won that one! I fall asleep halfway through most movies so I was not good at that game. My friend Trish missed her calling in life. She is hilarious. She should have been a stand up comic. We had a great time. Thanks Trish and Aaron for hosting~!
Today I babysat my neices and nephew. They are so much fun. I thought it might be a lot of work when I first thought about it, but it was really easy having 5 kids in the house. The boys played perfectly togther and the girls played perfectly together. Emma got out her box of princess dresses and they all put them on. They are adorable.
