Ellie's 2nd Birthday Party!

Sang and I had several talks about birthday party ideas leading up to our girls' 2nd birthdays, and we decided (since their birthdays are only 3 weeks apart and they have many of the same friends at this age!) that a shared birthday party would be perfect!! Because October, and the fall in general, are so crazy, the only day that worked was October 2, which was just a couple days after Charley's actual birthday. Sang had already planned a theme of Mini-mouse, which was perfect since Ellie has recently become OBSESSED with Mini! This was the theme from her 1st birthday party too, but it is what she loves so I love it too! 

So, the first step was to make an invitation! And for this invitation, we needed a picture! So we had a playdate, got matching little dresses and pulled Sang's camera out! Amazingly, getting this photo took about 2 minutes! These girls love each other and love pictures!! So cute!!!

This was them just being cute... 

Then we said look at us... Yay!!! 


The invitation had this cute design, and the party was set for Sunday, October 2 at Catch Air! 

The birthday girl is in her new Mini-mouse outfit, in the car and ready to go to her party!!

The two adorable birthday girls!!! LOVE them so much!!! 

Spinning! Not sure Charley is having as much fun as mine!! 

In a huge facility of bouncy things, slides, and play ground stuff, they managed to find a video game! 







My sweet boys! 
Time for the birthday dance party!!!

Time for silly faces!!

I asked Sang to see if Target had any cute Disney shirts we could wear... 
And in true bestie form, she got us matching Mini shirts (that Ellie LOVES when I wear!)! Matching girls and matching us- I was pretty excited!!! Hah! 
Such a fun morning celebrating these precious 2 year olds!!

Trampoline Park

Went back to Trampoline Park on Sunday... LJ has gotten so much better and more confident - guess all the practice time on his little trampoline is paying off! Still so much fun for Dad...  And the Mamas finally get in on all the fun!  Last time we went I was VERY pregnant and couldn't jump... but not this time! I see a frequent Sunday family outing in our future! A little sliding time... And video gaming! Too much fun!!

Ellie - Our Earliest Crawler!

Our little 'surprise' baby got us again and started crawling 2 months earlier than the boys did! She was close for about a week, and then at just about 8.5 months, she took her first crawls! She is getting the hang of it quickly... time to secure the legos that seem to always be all over the floor! First she started rocking on her knees, and doing little army crawls/ knees/ army crawl to get places. Then about a week later, we saw her first crawls. Within a week after those first crawls, she was all over the place!!! She will come find me in the kitchen if I leave her sitting in the living room and will venture all over the house! She's not fast, but she's pretty good! And so proud of herself! Here are some videos of her progress...

Mother's Day Celebrations

What a special and spoiled week I had!!! On Tuesday I picked these two precious things up from Champions:  Then the first celebration (well not including the Chick-fil-a mom-son date knight) was on Wednesday. LJ's class at WHPP had a Mother's Day Tea- and how lucky we were that Gigi came to town late on Tuesday night and was able to join me!!  Since Gigi was there (the only Grandmother in the room!), we got a table all to ourselves... and also LJ had twice the amount of work! He served both Gigi and me our tea/ lemonade, cookies, and fruit snacks!  He made me a very fun necklace and made me a new coffee mug all wrapped up...      I started crying when I read it: "This is the hand you used to hold when I was only 4 years old" with a hand print ned to it!!! How special!!  And a flower for Gigi!!!   This was outside LJ's classroom...  I am chopped liver with these two! Haha!!  We picked up Evan a...
