cute kiddos

Got some cute pictures taken of the kids while we were in Utah back in January. Just thougth I would share. They were kind of being goofballs as you can see.

We are still alive and Kate turned 3!

I haven't posted forever and I want to somehow get caught up. I think I am just too impatient for blogger. I always want to show my pictures to my family so fast that I just throw them up on facebook. But of course that does me no good, because I was somewhat using this as my journal and wanted to get it printed someday. Anyway, I might try and play catch up so I can get it printed.

So Kate turned 3 yesterday (November 10th). I really can't believe it. She is such a ball of personality. She is so smart and funny and we still can't believe she is ours. She loves to dance, sing, draw, read, ride her bike, play with crew, and take care fo babies. She says the funniest stuff, knows all of her lowercase and uppercase letters and sounds, counts to 20+, and is starting to write a bunch of letters and she draws the best smiley faces ever. We love her so much!

She is obsessed with Cinderella and has been talking about her Cinderella party for months now, so it finally happened. Here are some pics from the royal celebration....

I knew she would want to dig in to her cake so we did cupcakes for everyone else

she didn't even want to eat a piece, all she wanted was to lick the frosting off

So Kate had her first dance class yesterday and she was so stinking excited. Here is my little beauty all ready to go.

So I am way behind again, and I am going to try to get caught up, but I just had to post these for now. The kids and I went to Utah for a couple of weeks to visit and while we were there I decided to get their pictures taken. I absolutely love them! Here are some of my favorites.

I designed this collage to replace one we had done when she was 16 months. There is a 20x20 on her wall. I love it!

I know she looks kind of sad in this, but I think she looks so gorgeous!

they were getting a little tired at this point

what a little stud!

this one is so sweet, it kills me.
