Spirit Week~Around the World Day (and John's birthday)

Grace wore a dress that my mom and dad bought in Mexico when I was little and her cowboy cowgirl boots so, I'm not exactly sure what she was!?! 

But, she was cute!  These poses and "smiles" are killing me.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Today was John's birthday and we celebrated at Grandma and Grandpa's house tonight.  Grace brought her camera and put herself in charge of documenting the event.

John's birthday cupcakes that we ate after a yummy dinner.

"Stand up, hold the cupcake, and take a bite."

Me, Carter Man, and the Birthday Boy

John got a Manchester United book and shirt from his parents.

I grabbed the camera and got a pic of Grace and Grandma eating ice cream!

Carter LOVED the ice cream.  He giggled when he had his first bite!

Happy Birthday Daddy!  We are "so excited"  it's your birthday and we love you a bunch!

Spirit Week-Stars & Stripes

Today was Stars and Stripes Day at school for Grace.  She was a pretty cute "Flag-Waving American!"

When I got home from school today, I went to my room to change clothes.  When I came out, this is what I found.

Yep.  She's in the dryer!  She was looking for some clean clothes to put on.  The dryer...that's where we keep our clean clothes!  Don't you?  It's pitiful, I know, but who has time to fold all of those clothes!?!

And these two cuties were chilling on the couch!  (Hey! Maybe they could fold the clothes! {Just kidding, John folds a lot of clothes!} Can you put parenthesis inside parenthesis?)

Spirit Week~Superhero Day

Faster than a crawling brother,

Louder than a locomotive,

Able to leap Barbie dolls

in a single bound,

Look, up in the sky!

It's a bird!

It's a plane!

It's Amazing Grace!

and i said HEY!

What's going on?

If you are like us, nothing much!

Carter has learned how to climb into and onto things.

We are getting ready for this little girl's birthday party.  She told me the other day that she was going to pick out everything (decorations, food, her clothes, my clothes, something for her hair, etc.) because it is her party and she can do what she wants.  Hmmm.

I am really loving this song right now!

Grace started doing yoga...

...and eating healthy snacks immediately after doing her stretches.

This weekend, it was crazy warm!  They probably didn't even need jackets...I just felt weird letting them play outside in January without them!

I need a change!  I am so ready for this hallway to be redone!  I have some ideas and I am hoping to get it done this weekend!

John painted these stripes right before Grace was born and I love them!  He worked very hard on this hall while I sat on my pregnant booty and watched TV.  I had planned on keeping them...but, now, after looking at these pictures...I think it is time for them to go.  Maybe not.  I don't know!  What do you think?  I feel bad changing it because of all John's hard work, but I am a little bit over them!

Carter climbed up in Grace's bed and was very proud of himself.  He also fell out of her bed a few minutes later.

I would really LOVE a snow day or two!

Wow!  That was random, but it's what's been going on!  I would love to hear what's been going on with you and what you think about the stripes...leave a comment, please.
