Super fun month full of birthdays!  Mollie played more soccer and decorated her turkey like a "Caticorn" player.  She also had some awesome birthday donuts and a magical party!  Reed continued to grow and play.... so cute!  We got some unexpected snow on my birthday, so that was a fun treat!  And we put up our Christmas tree and went through the lights while school was still out for Thanksgiving break!

Mollie's Magical 6th Birthday

Cannot believe our sweet girl is 6!  The years are flying and we are so proud to be her parents.  She is definitely strong-willed and some day that will serve her well…. I don’t enjoy it much when we’re getting ready for school every day, but that’s just because we both don’t do mornings.

This year… she decided on a magical unicorn birthday party.  It was a fun time with family and friends.  Even Baby Teddy came to celebrate Mollie Girl.

Grandma made her a cake again… with a cool checked design inside.  And also, cake pops and cookies.  It was all delicious!  Reed and Walter especially enjoyed shoving whole cake pops in their mouths.

This sweet boy is such a joy!  He is the cutest little thing and we are so thankful to be his parents.
When the MDO at church said we could get some discounted pictures taken, we jumped at the opportunity.
He smiled even though it was nap time.

 

 

Lunch with Someone "Grand"

November 15, 2018

Mollie had a great time with Grandma and Grandmama & Granddaddy during "Lunch with Someone Grand".  (Papa was away hunting.... as he always is in November)  She always loves showing off her school.  They got to have a quick lunch together before checking out the book fair and playing on the playground.
She is a very blessed little girl to have such wonderful grandparents that love her so much!

Reed Isaac – 6 Months

November 30, 2017

This was a big month for our boy!  You are more mobile… rolling your way places.  You are eating food like a champ… we have a feeling you are going to be an eater.  You stayed with your first baby-sitter, Shelby Pennington, while we had a date night.  You celebrated your first Thanksgiving and had fun at Sissy’s birthday party.

Mollie’s 5th Birthday

Mollie’s birthday was on a Sunday this year… She woke up to streamers on her door and the birthday tablecloth.  She got to pick where we ate lunch so McDonald’s it was.

The next day, we took her “birthday snack” to school.  They were some pretty awesome donuts.  She loved it!

Now onto the party…. If you are around our girl for any length of time, she will most likely bring up her birthday.  She loves it so much!  She literally talks about it every single day.  The girl loves to have a party and get presents…. So we had reservations set and invitations sent.  The night before her party she started to get sick and at 3am that morning everyone besides Reed was throwing up like crazy.  The stomach virus hit us hard and we had to cancel the party.  It was heartbreaking, so of course we found a new location and made it happen a couple weeks after originally planned.

The theme was Shopkins… because she is obsessed with these little things.  We had lots of fun friends from school come to play with us at Dynamo Gymnastics and it was a great time.

Grandma made an awesome “Kooky Cookie” cake!  And it tasted great too!  This picture is just too good.

Reed had a good time too.  Nate and I are so very thankful for such beautiful, healthy kids.  We can’t believe that Mollie is already 5!  She is very kind and we are trying to teach her how to be grateful so she sent out thank you cards this year too!  (I am in love with her little handwriting… I want to keep every paper all the time)
