Bear Bear...

Around the end of January I was in childrens place and they had these bright colored bears on clearance for like 2 dollars. I had Maggie with me and she went crazy for this silly little bear so I caved and got it for her. We have plenty of bears and such at our house, but she was so into it I couldn't just walk away. It is now her best friend as Molly calls him.."bear bear" She sometimes walks around with him, but mostly just sleeps with him or likes to snuggle up with him when she is sad/hurt/scared- basically this is her 3rd form of comfort that she needs to sleep or needs for that extra comfort...Binky, Blanky, and Bear Bear are in our nightly routine. I was smart enough after the first 2 days we had him to go back and buy the last purple one to keep as a back up just in case..

She sure loves that cute little bear..Her face lights up when you find it for her or give it to her. At bed I say go get "bear bear" and if it is within reach she goes and gets it or just points to it.. So cute!!

Hangin Out

After all the birthday stuff going on we have settled down a bit- we have been playing outside more when the weather permits, Clint has been busy with his dad so us girls have been hanging at home having a great time just doing random little things- lots of wagon rides and drawing with chalk, playing babies and even watching some movies with popcorn!

My 2 sweet Valentines on Valentines day- They looked so cute and truly love each other so much!

Valentines night we got a knock on the door I answered it and there was a Valentine on the doorstep for Molly- it was from her little buddy in Sunbeams Maddix- she was so excited and said "A boy give that to me Mommy" She carries it around because it is very "splecial"... I wish I would have thought to do little Valentines for her buddies I thought she was still kinda little-guess I was wrong although she did send Valentines to all her grandparents and uncle Ky Ky in the mail...

I love my 2 sweet babies right out of the tubby

Grandpa Craig came and hung out with us a bit one night- Maggie loved playing "ball" with him!

Eggos are my girls most favorite thing for breakfast- since Maggie has to take Iron drops(only one more month!!!) She can not have any milk products an hour before and and hour after so breakfast is limited- this is what Molly requests every morning and Maggie LOVES them so much.....

Sadie comes over and plays at our house on Friday afternoons for a few hours and this is how I came to find them after putting Maggie down for a nap........little goofs!

I am glad I have weeks where there is really not much going on and we can just "hang" out doing whatever we want really!!! And I am also thankful to spend those hang out days with 2 of the sweetest, funniest, most lovable girls ever....

Maggie's 1st Birthday Party

We had the best birthday party for little Maggie... We decided to have it at the park and prayed that it would be warm and NOT windy!!! Well, our prayers were answered because it was atleast 60' and NO wind!!! I wanted it at the park so the kids could run and play and it was way easy clean-up! We invited family and close friends to celebrate the 1 year mark for the little miss... It was a blast, Maggie was happy the entire time and I know she knew it was her special day. We are so lucky to have so many people who love our little family and support us like they do. We couldn't pull any of these things off without the help of our parents they are so willing to bring whatever and help us clean-up. We are so lucky they both live so close and are so lucky to have such great friends. Molly I dont even think knew there was a party going on because her and her "friends" were playing from the second they got there till the second they left. The only time Molly existed as when she helped Maggie open presents and the cake was cut! Maggie was so genuinley happy with her presents each one she would open and then hold to her face saying "ooooooooooo" It was just precious. I am so glad she had a great day and it was a good excuse to get everyone together...

Happy Birthday Baby Girl!!!

We had pulled pork sandwiches, pizza, chips/salsa and CAKE!!

I got the big cake from Costco I couldn't pass up its cuteness and then I made Maggie's smash cake

Opening Presents

Molly and her BFF's

And here is the birthday girl in all her cuteness....

My new favorite picture

She was dainty with the cake at first, and then once she had a few bites she was hooked!!!! She just stared at everyone as we sang "Happy Birthday"

I thought this was so funny, I opened up her cards once we got home and I opened 4 yes 4 of the exact same card out of 6- how does that happen with ALL the cards in the world she gets 4 of the same one...
