Happy Birthday Eleanor

Dear Eleanor,

From the moment they placed you in my arms I knew life would never be the same. A new baby girl was just what just what this family needed.  There is something to be said about this year. It has gone so fast. I never in my wildest dreams would have imagined to have such a beautiful daughter. Your family loves you.You have a beautiful soul and genuine everlasting beauty. I look forward to seeing you grow in the next year and for the rest of your life. Love, your Mother.

Patrick's Party

 Patrick's Party was such a blast. Patrick got a drill!!!!! He has been wanting one since we got married. We had great Hot Dogs and Nachos. And a wonderful SALSA! We ate then we let the kids play! Lottie was really good, my favorite part of Lottie's game was she got a strike and we all looked over at her and she was stuffing her face with popcorn! All the kids had fun! The adults started playing and competitive natures came out. :D I think we all had fun. I love you Patrick Happy 30th Birthday! two weeks ago ;)

Whats going on this up coming week?

Here is my Patrick Tribute:

P - Patient

A - Amazing

T - Terrific

R - Reliable

I - Inspiring

C - Caring

K-  Kissable!

I'm so proud of Patrick he does so much for this family.  Some how he got it in his mind that he was the lucky one. I know that I am truly the lucky one! I can honestly say that when he is gone I miss him. Even if it is when he is gone for work. He lights up my world, and my children's world too! Any one should be so lucky to find a loving and caring person to share their life with. Ellie runs to Patrick as soon as he opens the door. She is a Daddy's Girl for sure. Her first words were Dada. Enough said. Patrick is such an amazing influence in the lives of our children his hard work and kindness is a wonderful example to live by. I would do anything for this man!

Today is Friday, Patrick's big party is Sunday. We are doing a Bowling Alley theme. All the food will be Bowling Alley food. Nachos, Hot Dogs and Popcorn! We are going to have a Wii Bowling Competition! The winner gets a special prize! It is going to be so much fun. After all turning 30. 

 

The next big thing to happen to this family is Eleanor is turning 1!!! So hard to believe a year has come. Her birthday is on the 30th we will be celebrating on the 31st. She is the biggest joy in my life! She already loves jewelry and shoes. Any time we there is a watch or a bracelet laying around she will pick it up and put it around her arm and just walk around like she knows exactly where it is supposed to go. (how does she know this). She loves her big brother with all her heart. Anything Liam has she wants to. She loves being around him and dancing with him. But she does NOT like to wrestle with him! She is very vocal about that. :) Liam loves Ellie as well. If she starts crying in the crib he will run to her and tell her: "Princess of Princesses its okay!" I very much look forward to see how they get a long as they get older.

Then we have 25 days left til we leave to Disneyland! Liam is so excited. He asks almost every day if we are going to Disneyland that day! He is so smart and remembers everything! We are very excited for Cars World. I think Liam is going to die when we walk in! Liam has been collecting money so he can spend it in Disney!
