Our Pinkalicious Girl

Wow, has it really been 14 days since Amelia's birthday??

In the midst of all of the turmoil in getting everything out of my mom's house so the renters can move in, and Jen and Steve packing everything and emptying their house for their BIG MOVE to Iowa and moving into our house the week before they leave, it was fun to stop and celebrate our precious Amelia's third birthday. It was perfectly pink! It was Pinkalicious!! She enjoyed every pink minute of it.

And one added picture of Nathan when he stayed with me and Cade and Sydney while Amelia and Mommy made cupcakes. He had been watching Cade practice cutting his sandwich with a cheese spreader. So this innovative boy went and got Cade's toy screwdriver so he also could cut his sandwich. Such a cutie!

Cuteness

Big Bro, Cade, helping Little Sis, Syd, put on her shoe--well, attempting anyway. There's only a certain window-of-opportunity while Syd will hold still!

Sydney--unhappy with Gramma taking so long to get her more cheese to eat.

Sydney--2 seconds later when she noticed the camera!

The scream returned in another 2 seconds when she realized she still didn't have her cheese!

There are so many moments during the day that just make me smile!

Wild Animals

Cade and I are learning about "wild animals" this week. What I've learned so far is that, apparently, there are unacceptable and acceptable wild animals according to Cade.

Unacceptable:  (I was told, "Gramma, you can put these back in the box and in your bag.")

Acceptable:  (I think one of these in the back sneaked in here unnoticed....)
