Aisha's 3rd Birthday

On Sunday we celebrated Aisha's 3rd birthday! I cannot believe I have a 3 year old!
I even shed a few tears and for those of you who know me you know that is quite unusual!! I love love love this age!!
She said she didn't want a party, so no party it was! She is much more of a one on one child than being the center of attention at a party!

She started the day with a sea of balloons, which she thought was the greatest thing ever!

Then she opened her gifts!

 

then breakfast was cinnamon roll pancakes

 

Then we went to church where she was spoiled by her cousins! Then we headed to Red Robin with some other cousins

 

She was not to impressed that they sang Happy Birthday to her (she HATES attention from people she does not know)

 

 

Then we went home and got in comfy clothes and gave her a bike!

 

 

Her handsome brother loved all the excitement!!

 

She has been so entertained playing with her gifts!

 

Happy Birthday sweetie, we loved trying to make your day special!

Lovely Monday

It is no secret that  Monday is probably my favorite day of the week.
Now don't get me wrong I love weekends and spending time with my family, but there is something so refreshing to me about waking up Monday morning with a fresh start! A fresh new week!

We throw schedule and routine out the door for the weekend and I am so happy to invite it back in come Monday!

This week looks absolutely lovely (weather wise) so I'm so excited to get this week started!

We are off to spend this day with some good friends!

Happy Monday, do you love them or hate them?

Easter Sunday

Weekend in Review

We had a bit of a rough week last week, sickness/loss of sleep, Lets just say I do NOT do well with losing sleep!!

I was very ready for the weekend! and we had a fun time!

Friday night we took the kids to the mall (I just really needed out of the house)

Could these two look more alike?

 

Saturday the kids played outside most of the day, they are both very content playing outside! I'm looking forward to the weather getting nicer!

 

While doing wash Saturday, I found this. This kid is absolutely crazy! He makes me laugh all of the time!

 

Yesterday we had friends over for lunch then we just lounged around I love relaxing weekends with my family!

 

And now its snowing out! Wow the weather in the northeast is quite confusing!

 

Happy Monday (yes my favorite day of the week)

Happy Birthday Steve

Today is Steve's 29th birthday!

We went out on Saturday night to celebrate at The Cheesecake Factory!

 

Steve is the most amazing father!

This was lunch on Saturday. He knows how to make his daughters day!

 

He has taught me so much about being a parent! He looks at each day as an opportunity to make a difference. He is always doing little things to show the kids he loves them, and in return his kids absolutely adore him!

 

Aisha and I are having fun coming up with things to make his day special! She loves celebrating birthdays, and has been keeping his gift a secret for a couple of days (which is surprising) So we are looking forward to him getting home from work tonight!

 

I love you Steve, and I love going through life with you!
