Happy Birthday Ashley and Madison!

I can't believe my babies are 3 and 4! I just brought Ashley home from the hospital and now she is in Pre-school! How did that happen?

And Madison was my heart stopper with her delivery issues and her time in Nicu and now she just tells you how she wants it and makes sure that is the way things happen!
I think Ashley's reaction was something to the effect of

" what is that and why is it here?"

The day we brought Madison home from the Hospital...yeah there wasn't much difference in their size then. It's no wonder that Madison passed Ashley a while ago!

Cleaning and scrubbing can wait for tomorrow,
For babies grow up, I've learned, to my sorrow.
So quiet down, cobwebs. Dust, go to sleep.
I'm rocking my baby, and babies don't keep.
(Ruth Hulburt Hamilton)

"Even if the water balloons are gone, there's still water in here mom!"

At any rate, I don't know what I would do without my sweet Princess of Pink and Princess of Purple. They have both been able to roll an adventurous and fearless attitude with a girly charm into two amazing packages. I love you Ashley with all of your strong will and fiestiness! I love you Madison with all of your patience and observance for detail. This will definitely be a magical birthday!

The End...

So I was so upset that I didn't have any pictures of the end of the waterballon fight...! Carolina sent me the cutest pictures, including the my favorite ones of Madison and Christian. I'll let you see and guess which ones they might be!

Let's Party!

We got together with the Jensen's before they left for their

roadtrip and just had a blast!

Before...
During...

Oh I wish we had an after picture! Believe me it was good!

What an amazing family.

Our camera had issues that day, but at least we got a couple of pictures!

Time keeps on slipping...

I'm behind...I KNOW! Getting 3 ready for school is exponentially more difficult than two. Why I don't know. It's not as if I have never been shopping before. I actually enjoy it every chance I get! The thrill of the deal, gotta love it. Anyways, I decided I would try and do a little recap ( in segments of course) of the end of summer and the start of a new school year; just to let everyone know we didn't fall into Tucson's black hole! So "Hi" everyone!
