a couple of pics

Here is Henley on her barbie jeep. Mom bought her this over a year ago at a yard sale for $50.00. What a bargain! She has been terrified of it for the past year and for some reason decided yesterday that she would finally get in and take off. She was so cute on it! As you can see it looks like her mommy taught her how to drive. haha!
Here is Harper at 9 weeks and almost 12lbs! Too cute for her own good! Poor thing had 4 shots last week and hasn't been sleeping all night since....i guess i should say poor mommy and daddy!
Hopefully, we will get back in that routine! I shouldn't complain....if we get up, its only once and only for about 45 minutes. I know some people get up every few hours with their little ones!

Working Momma...

So yesterday was my first day back to work from maternity leave. I only shed a few tears after dropping Harper off at daycare. She seemed to do fine! Wow, was last night busy.....I walked in the door Adam was already cooking supper. I started giving Harper a bottle and had the great ideal to iron clothes at the same time.....that was very interesting! Gotta do what you gotta do though. After supper and kitchen was cleaned, both girls had to have baths.....after baths they had to be put to bed....no time to really play. I do think Adam played with them for a few minutes upstairs while i was picking up and putting clothes on the wash. It really is true a woman's work is never done. I am just so thankful I have an awesome husband that helps!

An update on Harper....well she and I had a nice long talk on Sunday night. I told her that her mommy was going back to work and she and daddy really needed their sleep. She listened and said she would do her best! Yippie, she has slept all night the past two nights. Henley on the other hand has woke us up both nights. I guess I need to have that talk with her. haha! Maybe tonight!

Henley blows out 3 candles....not literally though

Henley turned 3 September 26! I can't believe how big she is getting. In the picture above was the night I made cupcakes for her party at school. She has yet to blow out candles on her birthday so i thought this year would be the year. I talked it up for days. I thought we better practice at home the night before.....no luck. She was all smiles like in the pic above until she saw the flame! I ended up blowing it out for her.

As you can see in this picture her friend Mason blew it out for her at school. She also was too shy to play pin the tail on the donkey at school.

Once again at her real birthday party.....no blowing the candles out of her Princess cake! Her party was at the park and I was so scared it would be ruined by all the rain. Every thing turned out great!

The rain held off until the very end of the party so we just let Henley and her friend, Braden, play in the rain for about 30 minutes! She had so much fun. They were hilarious! Happy Birthday Henley!
