Can you believe it but our little girl is now a year older! 3!! Wow!! But we had a great night! We keep it small, just family. We had it on a Wednesday night after everyone got off of work. It made for a more intament and a relaxing time. We did have a theme! What other then Princess!! We had all the kids dress up in costumes. I really wanted to find a Shrek costume for Blake but I just didn't have enough time, but there are still more birthdays to come so may be next time!! But Belle had her Belle costume, dress up shoes, and a Princess crown to top it all off! Whitney was in Rapunzel (Tangled) and a crown but she really liked Belle's crown better! Of course! Josie, Ogdan and Nash all dressed up, even Jenny too!! I did make the cake! A Belle Cake! It turned out better then I thought it would. Belle got so many great gifts! Grandma and Grandpa Parker got her a picnic table. They brought it over early so we could us it. Belle had to close her eyes as Grandpa brought it in. She was quit happy to see it. Also we've been holding a chair Nana had bought her. The girls have both been trying to play on it so it was exciting to her to finally get it! She loved it! In the pictures she is "posing" for pictures in her chair! It was to funny, crossing her legs to hands on hips! She's a funny girl! She got many great gifts from everyone. A funny part was when Belle was opening up her gifts Elijah snuck over and stole her chair! He just had to check out this cool blue chair!! Blake and I got her a Radio Flyer Wagon! All the kids wanted to do the rest of the night was to be pushed around the yard in it! The party was wonderful and Belle had an amazing time.
I came home from work a week ago and Belle had a slight fever. It was a rough night with her waking up so I let her sleep on the couch till I went to bed. She looked so peaceful so I just left her stay there. When I woke up to feed Whitney she was missing. She had moved to the ground and was between the couches, sound asleep! Then when Blake got home from work she had put herself back in her bed. I think she still sleep walks! Then a few days later Whitney had a fever. I think her sis more do to her teething. She has all molars coming in and they're taking there time. But like always she's a snuggle bug!
On Saturday morning I thought that it would be fun to make a tent for the girls. They LOVED it!! The picture of Whitney in the tent didn't turn out to good but if you can make out how big her smile is, you'll see how much fun she had!!
Belle is crazy over my phone. Blake hates that she can work it better then him. But she'll take it all the time and watch videos or look at all the different pictures. It's hilarious to see her laugh at herself. When I ask "what's so funny?" She giggles and tells me "Annabelle is so funny!" It's so crazy how big she is and how intelligent she is!
Blake and I meet at work and became best friend. Then we fell madly in love and got married. On June 16, 2007, it was the hottest day ever, we wedd in our front yard. We plan to have many years in our home and together. Growing, laughing, and loving!
