HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRADY!

I had the best day with Brady today! Bryan stayed home to have breakfast with us and then Macy and I played Brady and all his new toys until Macy had to go to school and then Brady and I cuddled and played all day long (he did take about a 45 minute nap, in Macy's bed). We ended the day watching the new Scooby Doo movie with the family.

Brady had a Scooby Doo birthday party with his friends, the guest list included:
Zach & Taylor Apgar
Reagan Coles
Logan Wayman
Sophia Casal

We borrowed the Apgar's jumparoo and let the kids just play, then did presents and cupcakes. He is so lucky to have friends at such a young age!

We had family over on Sunday and Brady got lots of great presents and got to FINALLY cut into his Scooby cake! We had a special cake made for him.

He loved it, he kept saying my cake!

We gave him a Scooby motorcycle and he loves it! He looks so cute, I just wish it went a little faster!





(I am going to post a slideshow tomorrow)


HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY SON! I LOVE YOU EVER SO MUCH!!!

Caught up!

I know ridiculous! I just put 4 post on here that took me less than 10 minutes and yet I can't seem to find the time to just do them as they happen. But I had to update before Brady's Birthday post tomorrow.

Spiderman undies

Just had to post it! Going through all of Macy's old clothes and we found her old Spiderman undies, Brady was so excited he had to put them on. He looks just as cute in them as Macy did! ;)

Sprinkler Party '09

Macy & Brady had their annual Sprinkler party REALLY late this year. We did the slip & slide, water balloon fight, water balloon game & breaking in the new swing set! They had so much fun with all their friends.

Can't wait 'til next year!

Such a boy

There was this HUGE bumble bee ~dead~ on the deck and Brady walked up to it and touched it (Macy was in the house crying because she walked passed it) lol! He thought it was so cool!

What a boy!

Big helper

French Toast

Brady loves to help me in the kitchen. It doesn't matter what we are making he will come in and say "I help". He'll be a great cook!

1st day of Kindergarten

Macy started Kindergarten today. Such a big day and I think we both handled it pretty well. :)

We started the day with Yummy donuts. Macy loves to help make them just as much as she loves to eat them!

You can't really tell in the picture but they are both covered in cinnamon sugar, luckily a bath was to follow.

Macy's 1st homework assignment

Bryan came home to have lunch with her before she left, he's such a good Daddy!

Macy all ready to go!

Her High School Musical backpack she picked out
(I love how the backpacks are bigger than the kids!)

Brady saying Good Bye to Sis

And a kiss!

I don't think Brady realized what was happening exactly because when I got home he ran to the car saying "Hi Macy!" and then he turned to me and asked "where's Macy?" and I said "At school" and he said "oh" and just looked at the car...SAD!

I cried on the drive over to school and then when she hugged me good bye, I don't think she noticed either time...whew! I'm glad that Megan and Taryn were there when we got there I think Macy was a little nervous to be by herself.

Houston was at recess and he ran over to say Hi to the girls & Aiden before they went into class

Macy & Taryn playing before they had to go to class

Standing in line waiting to go in, like good girls!

And there she goes, without even a look back :(

I can't believe my little girl is this big, it came before I even had time to think.
I love you Macy Laine with everything I've got!

I can't help but think of the ABBA song, so I am putting the lyrics...

Slipping through my fingers

Schoolbag in hand, she leaves home in the early morning
Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile
I watch her go with a surge of that well-known sadness
And I have to sit down for a while
The feeling that Im losing her forever
And without really entering her world
Im glad whenever I can share her laughter
That funny little girl

Slipping through my fingers all the time
I try to capture every minute
The feeling in it
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Do I really see whats in her mind
Each time I think Im close to knowing
She keeps on growing
Slipping through my fingers all the time

Sleep in our eyes, her and me at the breakfast table
Barely awake, I let precious time go by
Then when shes gone theres that odd melancholy feeling
And a sense of guilt I cant deny
What happened to the wonderful adventures
The places I had planned for us to go
(slipping through my fingers all the time)
Well, some of that we did but most we didnt
And why I just dont know

Slipping through my fingers all the time
I try to capture every minute
The feeling in it
Slipping through my fingers all the time
Do I really see whats in her mind
Each time I think Im close to knowing
She keeps on growing
Slipping through my fingers all the time

Sometimes I wish that I could freeze the picture
And save it from the funny tricks of time
Slipping through my fingers...

Slipping through my fingers all the time

Schoolbag in hand she leaves home in the early morning
Waving goodbye with an absent-minded smile...
