She's 1!

We are doing the cake celebration with family in Oregon, but felt like we couldn't ignore that the birthday already happened.  This is what happened...

Clothing Obsession

This girl LOVES to wear laundry or any clothes left on the ground.  

Brother's pajama pants

Dad's garment bottoms, the leg hole is clearly for the head 

Logan's pajama shirt

PS. Our little love bug turns 1 today!

School's Out

We've been having fun with friends as well as getting away on family dates to Sodalicious! Party with the Shaver's!!

Shopping

What do you think of this couch for the new place?  Logan approved...it's red!

Near Death

I'm so bothered by this I have to write about it.  I almost killed our 11 month old today and man...it's eating me up!  We live on the 2nd story and the railing outside our apartment is too far apart.  Today I was watching 2 other kiddos and we were headed out to the playground.  They all headed down the stairs with me holding the babe, but then one kid decided the cement was too hot and needed some shoes.  Well, a 5 & 3 year old were already outside.  I decided to leave the door open to "supervise" at a distance with my ears more or less.  Well, the 5 year old was unable to get his shoes on himself and they were hard to get on!  A couple seconds it felt like and I turned and my baby was holding on with two hands on either side of the rail and poking her head and shoulders through.  I leapt out and grabbed her pulling her back through and man...does that make my heart skip a couple beats as the imagery of her falling through is haunting me even though it didn't happen!  There's just cement below and it would have been a death sentence.  I feel so awful.  God seriously was watching out for her today.  Our day could have been so different.  So grateful to be moving here soon!  No more apartments with railing spaced too far apart for us.  No more having our entry on the 2nd story!  No more cement stairs either!  The list goes on on things I won't miss in these apartments.  Gah...it can't happen soon enough this move!

1st Day & Last Day of Kindergarten

 Stop growing!  It's going too fast!!

Old Gray Mare

Today is the last day of school and it's so bittersweet.  We LOVE Mrs. Williams!  She has been the BEST teacher.  Her passion for teaching these kiddos is magnetic.  I went and had lunch with Logan at school yesterday and all the kids were talking about how much they are going to miss their teacher.  Logan can read, is excited to make new friends, loves math, looks forward to going to school, is more confident, looks to help others in school having a hard time, and has gotten better at focusing at getting his work done.  I couldn't have asked for a better year!

This is the school play...Logan's lines "Old Gray Mare that's not fair!  We're young of course, we're a kindergarten horse."  The cuteness...if you could eat it up.  Everly was a terrible audience member...clearly she wanted some of her own lines.
