Hadlee's 2nd Birthday

My sweet Hadlee turned 2 last month, too! October is a busy month for our little family. But I love that my girl's birthdays are so close together. Hadlee's birthday fell on a Sunday, so we had the family over for a Mickey Mouse dinner party for her. We had birthday doughnuts, opened presents, and got ready for church. After a nice nap, we had dinner and cake with the family. Hadlee loves Mickey and Minnie Mouse, loves animals (especially: monkeys, kitties, puppies, elephants, and cows. The noises are the best!) She loves shoes and sleeps in them often. She wears a tutu whenever she can find one and loves having a purse. Her vocabulary is multiplying by the day, but her favorite word is "no." I am so very lucky to be Hadlee's mom. She is so spunky and is a little dare devil. She challanges me and loves me like no one else. Happy birthday, sweet baby girl. Here is how we celebrated.










Keelia's 5th Birthday

I'm not sure how it happened, but my darling Keelia turned 5 last month. I can hardly believe it. She is the sweetest, most caring, sassiest little 5 year old I know. I am so grateful to be her mom. She is my little buddy and helper. We are so much a like, it is scary. But I love her and I am so proud of the person that she is. I'm not 5 anymore, but I would venture to say that she had a fantastic birthday. We had birthday doughnuts for breakfast. Her daddy brought her flowers. We opened presents. We had a Barbie birthday at Chuck E. Cheese for lunch with some of her friends from school and church. And we had McDonald's for dinner with Sean. We got to hang out and play all day. It was pretty great.
Keelia likes Barbies, and dance. She is still taking ballet and tap and loves it. She loves playing with friends and has the best imagination. She is the best big sister and is constantly caring for Hadlee, whether it's welcomed or not. She really is the best 5 year old I know! Here are some pictures from the day.
