Catch Up Time!!

So as many of you know we have been BUSY the last couple of months.... but before I update each of you on the move, Arizona, and the traveling adventures between... I have more important matters to cover... BIRTHDAYS! Long over due, but precious and awesome and SOMEONE PLEASE STOP MY KIDS FROM GROWING SO QUICKLY!!!

My little stinker #2 turned 4 his birthday requests were quite simple. He wanted a spiderman cake and a pizza picnic on the floor. So that is just what we did. Here is our picnic with his favorite pizza on an old sleeping bag. We watched spiderman while enjoying the cheesy delight! He was too busy stuffing his face to give me any kind of a smile.
I LOVE this picture. My hubby's face cracks me up. For those of you who know my little boy this sums him up.... LOVE! He is always the one who knows when mommy needs a hug, kiss, and he tells me multiple times a day how pretty I am and how much he loves me. This kid is good to have around for the self esteem. He is our little peacemaker in our home. Don't get me wrong, he gets into his fair share of trouble especially with his swords and guns. Oh little stinker #2 you are amazing.
Here he is super excited to dive into his Spiderman cup cakes! This kid LOVES Spiderman. I think I am going to be doing Spiderman birthdays for him until his mission... who knows!! Little fun facts about my BIG Stinker who in now the BIG 4...

1. He LOVES swords and guns... really any weapon that he can wildly chase and torment his sisters with.
2. He is a dare devil. He falls, he gets back up. Too many times have I found myself freaking out over a bunch of dried blood all over some body part that he recently got a scratch or scrape.
3. Daddy is his buddy and mommy is who he wants to marry. :)
4. He wants to be a missionary when he grows up, because they are super heroes. LOL
5. He LOVES babies. He has already named the baby in my tummy. For the past couple of months when he addresses me he includes his baby name too. He gives the baby love every days and sings him songs. He is looking forward to having another brother.

There is so much more about this little boy that just makes me melt. I love my little guy and count it one of my greatest blessing to call him son. The happiness and complete joy he brings into our family is indescribable. I love being your mommy. You may only be 4, but you are still my baby!

NOW for my little Stinker #3.... She is 2 years old!! She is absolutely wonderful, comical, fiesty, and she too LOVES spiderman. However, she did not get a spiderman birthday. She had a rainbow birthday. Solely because of her deep love for rainbow chip icing. She could eat a whole tub on her own and believe me it would go straight to her adorable chubby thighs... the ones that mom and dad LOVE to tickle!

As you can see from the picture, we all were able to enjoy some rainbow chip slobber cake. :) After we sang "Happy Birthday" she would blow out her candles and shriek with joy and say "again, again". So since it was her birthday.... The kids and I would sing to her again and dad would re light the candles. We did this.... oh near 20 times! LOL It made her so happy, we could not help but do it for her.
Stinker #3 is just that a stinker. Being the third kiddo in the family, she has no other choice, but to be resourceful. She is quite cute as long as she is not using biting or pinching as her resourceful methods. :) She loves to sing and dance. Saturday mornings, the hubby likes to watch country music videos. This has become a favorite thing to do for Claire too. She cracks us all up with her killer moves. The other kiddos will join in and yes even the hubby and I too. It's contagious. :)

Some fun facts about this beautiful baby girl of mine.....

1. She LOVES spiderman. She has to eat from the spiderman plate at meals. She demands to watch spiderman on demand... she will even bring you the remote saying "spire man, spire man".
2. She thinks she is bigger than what she is. She does her best to keep up with big sister and big brother. Most of the time she is successful. Her brother is her hero. She always wants him around to play with, to sit by, or to cuddle her.
3. She is sassy. If you are being naughty, her little finger will pop out and point right at you, quickly calling you on the carpet... "naughty,. naughty."
4. Do not mess with her Tangled movie or her baby dolls. She has named herself sole protector of both.
5. She loves to play with hair and it will put her right to sleep. Hair and some cuddles is all this little girl needs. So in other words... daddy does not have the magic to put her to bed! LOL

How I love this little girl! She makes us laugh. She has brought another element of bliss into our family. What a lucky mom I am and I am so grateful to have this little angel.
