Rainbow Party

 We have been celebrating Molly's birthday for like 2 weeks now, what a lucky girl she is. Tomorrow is her real birthday, but we had a family party and a little friend party with her best friends a little early. Molly wanted a "Rainbow" party with balloons, streamers, candy,and cupcakes. I did my best and I think her parties turned out pretty darn cute and I loved doing everything "Rainbow". At her friend party she said only girls could come and these three are the ones she wanted cuz they are her best friends. Ayla, Ally, and Sadie. All the kids knew each other and I have not heard such cute little girl conversations in a while and between the four they were laughing and giggling the whole time. Then one (Molly) said "poo" (I know real lady like huh) and then they started laughing so hard and they all started saying it. Yes I am proud, hey its her birthday right?

 We decorated  "Rainbow" Cupcakes

 We made "Rainbow" bracelets with their names...

 Opened more presents... she loved everything she got so much...

 

We sang "Happy Birthday" and Molly got a little embarrassed I guess.. 

 

We had lots of family come to her other party as well: Grandma/Grandpa Perry, Grandma/Grandpa Broadhead, Great Grandma Beep Beep, Aunt Jill/Uncle Jim and Alec, and  Aunt Courtney/Uncle Brandon and Peri. It was so fun to have so many here to celebrate and see Molly so happy and knowing it was her special day. We had pizza, ate cake and candy, and I had made a little slide show of just Molly from the past three years. I got teary eyed making it and watching it. My baby is 3 I just can't believe it. 

This is her cute "Rainbow" cupcake cake I made... This was my favorite thing of her whole party and Molly thought it was pretty neat too..

 

 More embarrassment I guess...

Maggie even got in on the action I guess this is practice, she wanted it SO bad so we gave in

  Happy 3rd Birthday Molly J....

Gramdma "Beep Beep" visits...

My dad's mom came to visit from Michigan. It was her first time seeing Maggie and my sisters little girl Peri so it was a well needed visit. She is never here when we do birthdays or anything so we bumped Molly's little family party up a week so that she could be here to see the festivites. (pics to come in the next few days) We also took a trip to Springdale to  go to my dads restaurant "The Flying Monkey" so my grandma could see it. It was fun and Molly thoroughly enjoyed the "Monkey Fingers" It was fun to have her here and be able to visit with her some until her next visit.

 Mmmmmm....

 Molly loves her sister so much (dont know why this is blurry)

 This picture is a perfect example of the "Molly-tude" and some days it comes out a lot some days not at all

Pumpkin Patch

Holy Cow, this time of year is so crazy busy and I just love it. This week we started off with the Pumpkin Patch @ Staehlie Farms and ended with a little family Birthday Party for Molly (her real Birthday is on the 26) We are pretty much celebrating all month long. Anyways, there will be lots going on on the blog for the next few weeks I guess. So onto the pumpkin patch-Molly loved it so much. She was so cute when we were hunting for her very special pumpkin- she even got to get one for Maggie. She loved going through the corn maze and totally loved going for a real horse ride(my camera died just before she rode). She cried the whole walk back to the car because she wanted to stay so bad. I think it is so fun to go, and it can add up but totally worth it.

*Pulls herself up to standing against furniture and things

*Can climb up 1-2 steps and climbs on and over a lot of things

*Just started saying babababa(she even says this in her sleep)she says it forever at a time its pretty cute- Clint and I are trying to get her to say mama or dada, but no such luck yet-I hope I win :)

*Loves to eat whatever we are eating within reason for sure

*Growls/Grunts when she wants to eat- if she see's you eating she wants it and grunts till she gets some

 *Hates to get her diaper changed and get dressed

*Hates getting buckled in her carseat, but once she is in she is happy as can be

*Loves to crawl into our shower whenever anyone is in there

*For some reason has started to wake up in the night again

*Her hair is finally starting to grow a little

*Loves her Binki

*really snuggly with her mommy, but wiggly with most everyone else

 

She has crawled up into the shower countless times and it doesnt matter that she is dressed, she just gets in on the action and loves it..

Gosh she is cute, Look at that face

She sucks on her bottom lip quite a  bit, Molly did this too, but it was the bottom left side of her lip I think...

 

Of course wouldn't be a month update unless there were a comparison picture of my two favorite girls. Molly's face was a little more round, and she had a bit more hair(surprising I know-didn't think she had any) I think Maggie's features are more petite and there eyes are different too. O how I love my babies... I got a bit teary eyed looking at pictures from Molly so long ago-they are getting far to big...

   

Happy 8 months Maggie K.
