Jeffery's 1st Birthday party

Madi got invited to her very first birthday party of a friend. Jeffery was so cute and wasn't very much into the cake but it sure was a lot of fun. Plus it is always so good to get to see our friends the Beckers!

All us girls that had babies around the same time

Easter 2010

This year for the first time in a long time I had my grandma and grandpa here. Plus she was so nice to make all of her great grandkids all cute matching Easter outfits. I was so fun! We did a little Easter egg hunt as well and honestly Madi wasn't into it but she did just turn one so I guess I can't blame her. Maybe next year. Any way here are some pics from that day.

Julie and Julia

I just finished watching Julie and Julia and felt inspired to blog. That was such a fun movie, it made me go through a lot of emotions. After watching this movie I want to learn to cook and blog more. I wish I had something more to blog about other then my day to day normal rarely changing routine that I have with me and my daughter.
Sometimes I wish I had something amazing and exciting to talk about. Some sort of adventure or journey. Wouldn't that be amazing? What would my journey be? Do you ever wonder what people will say when they look back on your life? What would the book of my life be like? Is it going to be boring and repetitive? Will people love it and feel inspired? Will people love me or hate me? Did I ever make a difference? Was I a good mother? Was I a good wife? Will people remember me or will am I just a the person they met once upon a time that they barely remeber what my name was?Did I do something great? Was I good at my job?
Well this was just me being me and blabbing so ya there it is.

The Brown/Duree/Gainer birthday party

All of our babies were all born within a month of each other so we decided to have a cute little combined birthday party. Amy was awesome to plan it here are some cute pictures. Amy also bought some cute matching shirts too

My little Diva

I just can't believe how much of a diva my little girl is. Isn't she cute in her little robe.

Turkey Party/First turkey I have made

So I know that this was a long time ago but in January we decided to have a big Turkey Dinner and invite a ton of people over. It was great we had the biggest turn out ever. It was a lot of fun and we could barely move in our small living room. It was also a new experience for me because I made my first turkey ever. It turned out great and I was so proud of myself.

A weekend with the Beckers

This last weekend we had the opportunity to go to Joplin to visit our friends Cassie and Paul Becker and they have a little boy Jeffery who is 3 days younger then Madi. We have so much fun when we visit them the boys watched football and us girls just hung out and talked and cooked. We had lots of good food burgers, hotdogs, chili, and a big breakfast of eggs hashbrowns sausage and bacon. While we were there Madis first two teeth broke threw the front bottom two yay its about time she get some teeth Jeffery already is on 5 and 6. Well here are some fun pics from the weekend of the kiddos.

Jeffery did not want Madi to leave he was just hanging on to the car seat and touching her it was so cute.

Madi and Jeffery getting into trouble pulling all the stuff off of the bookshelf and Madi almost pulled it down on herself.

I just love this picture it was so cute they kept leaning back and staring at each other and grabbing each others hands and talking to each other I wish I could have got it on video.

Bath time we just can't resist every time we go there we have to bathe the kiddos together. They are so going to hate us when they are older

This was when we were getting them ready for their bath and they were playing around together in Jefferys crib

Aren't the so cute

Madi is laughing at something
