"She's gonna blow!"


FUN WITH BIRTHDAY CANDLES!!!




Well, I enjoyed taking a stroll down memory lane for my "Gotcha Day" posts, but it is nice to be back in the present! I wanted to post some pictures from last week because my niece Logan turned seven! This girl is something special, that is FOR SURE! She is mature beyond her years, and has always been one of my very favorite people on earth. She is such a wonderful cousin to Lily. Her heart just bursts with love for her! She doesn't even mind sharing the limelight on her birthday. Lily is OBSESSED with blowing out birthday candles, so Logan let her help with that. Her heart is so big. I just love both my sweet girls. The birthday candle fun did not stop there! Friday night we spent the evening with very good friends at their home. Their beautiful daughter, Macy, turns 2 today! So, we celebrated that and Lily's Gotcha Day with more delicious cupcakes. Lily was in heaven, once again. It's funny, cuz it really is more about the candles than it is the yummy treat for Lil. After she blows them out she will eat the sprinkles and lick the frosting a bit, but then she is on to something else. Now, give her a handful of M&Ms or Sweet tarts and it is a different story entirely...she loves her some candy!
So, that is a little of what has been happening around here lately. We spent Easter at my parents' house and I worked at 3:30.
Lily's "boo-boo" knee is almost all better. She still kinda limps when she gets going with any kind of speed.
We are all finally done taking our anti-biotics. Yah! And, hopefully warm weather is just around the corner. (again, and to STAY this time!)

Glad everyone is feeling better! Hopefully, Spring will arrive soon. Easter was very "wintery" in Chicagoland!

Hi Nikki,

Yes, we were up in your area. We were zipping around this time. Next time we come up this summer I will email you and maybe we can get the girls together at a park?
