Alex Turns 7

Happy Birthday to my sweet boy, Alex.  It is hard to believe that he is already seven years old!  He is growing up so fast. This year Alex asked to go camping instead of having a party with his friends, so that is what we are going to do.  We did have a fun dinner with family on his birthday. Here are some fun pictures from his birthday   I will put up more after we go camping.

Birthday Breakfast

His surprise birthday cake.  He knew it was going to be a Skylander's Portal, but he didn't know I put the Skylander he had been asking for on top.

First time seeing the Skylander on top

Our princess is almost a year old!  Holy Moley!  She is so much fun and definitely has a personality all her own.  She is a busy little girl who keeps us on our toes and smiling.  Here are some fun facts about our Josephine.

*She is cruising around the furniture like a pro

*She tries to stand up in the middle of the room without anything to hold on to (and gets frustrated when she can't)

*She is a talker (and a screamer)

*She throws herself forward when she is mad or really tired (she gave herself a bloody nose the other day)

*She got her first sickness (a tummy bug and a virus/cold thing)

*She calls me Mama

*She still has only 8 teeth and she knows how to use them

*She gives amazing smiles

*She sticks out her tongue

*She ADORES her brothers more than anything

*She likes music and to dance

*She likes Doc McStuffins and watching cartoons with her brothers

*Legos are still her favorite thing to get into (it makes her brothers crazy)
