pinkalicious tea party for her girl friends.

to our house and had the cutest tea party ever.

everything was pink, including the homemade bread

i made for the sandwiches. after we read a couple pinkalicious

books and headed outside to play pink, pink, pinkalicious

instead of duck duck goose. after we played pin the

heart on the necklace...so girlie. we had a great time.

happy 2nd shay baby!

we had such a fun little birthday party for shay.

we rented a little blow up jumper for the littles and ate our little hearts out...

i made a whole lota goods and just had some neighbors over and let her just run and be 2!

she wanted wendy's for dinner because she is obsessed with

chicken nuggets, fwench fwies, and spite.

shay is a ham. i have not met many that don't just love shay.

her little body that looks like a grown up just shrunken.

her cute teeth and how she talks. she is smart as can be and we love her to pieces.

she talks so well for being 2 and LOVES to sing.

we went swimming in the afternoon with some of her neighborhood pals.

it was such a fun day. we love you nugget!!! happy birthday!
