January Catchup

We didn't have a very busy month. Lots of playing around the house and no real plans. Which has been a nice change of pace.

I had my 31st birthday. Yuck! E made it fun though. She woke me up and had created a hunt for me to find my present. Super Mario Brothers for the Wii! I played video game all morning, quite exciting! Then we went to my parents house to hang out and go to dinner. E and her buddy Gracie that lives across the street. They had been trying to get together for weeks. Our schedules are opposite- E goes to school T Th and Gracie goes M W F. They had a great time playing together and they are very excited to go to Kindergarten together next year.We got to meet up with our Ft Worth Friends for Ben's 3rd Birthday. I still cannot believe he is 3. The girls had a great time at Chuck E CheeseB still doesn't quite understand the rules.....We celebrated E's 4 and a HALF birthday on the 27th. She wanted everything the same as her 3 and a half bday- so we spent the day in our jammies hanging out. The girls made a brownie cake.They really enjoyed eating the batter off the spoonsAnd making silly facesCan't believe my baby is halfway to 5Even Grammy and Rylee got to come hang out with usOpening half wrapped gifts
Berkley is my little helper. She loves to mop, vacuum and dust the blinds. I wonder if she still will in about 10 yearsWe got to babysit cousin Rylee a little bit- I wanted a picture of B and Ry. Berkley was not into it- I told her she could have a piece of candy if she let me take a picture. I love the look on her face!
She looks like she is looking for trouble
Ry thought she was so big eating at the table with Berkley
They did this all on their own watching Dora
