Birthday's and more birthdays

So last weekend we were full of presents, fun and birthday cakes!! We had birthday parties that we had. We had a lot of fun though and the kids really enjoyed themselves. My baby boy is 4 years old. I really can't believe it!! He starts preschool next month!! Davis had a Monster Truck theme party this year and was lucky enough to have two parties in a row!! So he got a birthday Cookie and a Birthday cake. Davis got a bike for his birthday that he has been eyeing for months... literally months that he has been wanting for his birthday. Every time we went to the store, he had to go test drive it and he sure was hoping to get it for his birthday. He had to ride it right away!!! So this is us at nine o clock in the morning taking his bike for a ride. It's worth seeing this smile on his face!
Adie and my niece Miriam have the same birthday so this year we decided to throw a combined birthday party. A fairy party, we made tutu's for the girls to wear for the party. We never got a picture of them together but they were all cute!! We had a lot of fun!! We also had a Tinkerbell cake that I had made for the fairy bash!
Adie digging into her presents!! She got spoiled (as always).

Davis loved his Monster truck cake!!! He is so big!!
Adie in her cute fairy outfit!! I am not a good homemaker but I think I did a pretty good job on her tutu even though it's the simplest thing to make!!! We had a super busy weekend and we were completely exhausted from all the fun. It is hard having birthdays so close like that, but what are you gonna do!! We did have tons of fun though. My kids mean the world to me and I would do anything for them!

Eight years ago...


Eight years ago today I had a baby boy that I had placed into a very loving families home. I can't believe it's been eight years and he is going to be baptized. I just wanted him to know that I love him so much that I gave him something I wouldn't have been able to provide myself at the time. I am so grateful for him. Without him I wouldn't be were I am today. He changed my life. I am so grateful for his family who treat me so well and I know have taken him in and have loved him even before he was born. They are such a wonderful family and wouldn't have wanted it anyother way. He has a special place in my heart always and forever. I want to let ALL of my family and friends to know I am grateful for their love and support that they had shown me throughout this whole thing. Especially my mom for being by my side the whole step of the way. I love you Tyrone. Happy Birthday.
