Kieleys 3rd Birthday!

Our beautiful birthday girl with her cake..in my defense it started out straight??

Our little princess is 3, I can't believe it! She wanted to have a "Tea Party" this year for her birthday. It was a lot of fun to plan.. Grandma S made a beautiful princess dress for her tea party and I found the most darling tea set that she can pass down to her daughter or daughters. ;) Kieley has been the most amazing little girl since the day she was born. She was originally due on Dec 27 (Aaron's birthday) but I was induced on the 19th and she arrived the morning of the 21st..it was a loong 48 hours! However, in the end we welcomed the most beautiful, perfect little princess! We love you lots Kieley, I hope you had a great birthday!

We played pin the "sticker" on the tea pot.. I ran out of time to make the tea pot lids..oops!

Time for presents.. I love her expression on her face when she opened the gift with all the Disney princesses. :)

Happy Birthday Princess Kieley!!

Dance Class

Kieley loves to sing and dance around the house. So I called to see when she could start dance class and since Kieley was so close to turning three they said she could start right away, yay! Kieley has loved every minute of dance class... her teachers name is Miss Michelle and all the girls love her, she is so fun and energetic like them how could they not? I'm having so much fun watching my little dancer learn.. and not to brag but she seems to be a natural :)

Fun little suprises from Kieley

Kieley is so smart, fun, loving and sooo creative. I walked away to go change Blake's diaper and came back into the family room to discover her "birds nest" as she called it.. she told me it was for her friends "the birds" and then said, "mom everyone needs a home"..well of course, you are correct little princess. :) hehe! She is the best entertainment I could ask for and I love that she is always making new surprises for me everyday, love you princess!

Weekend Get-a-Away

Daddy and Kieley in front of the most beautiful Christmas tree before we ate our favorite restaurant.
We are spoiled living so close to San Diego. It is honestly one of our favorite places to visit so we take advantage when we can and we decided this weekend worked out perfect. Luckily we have such great kids in the car.. making traveling so much better. :)

Baby Blake chillin' on the bed watching sports with his Daddy. :)

The next morning as we were walking to our car we got to see a Navy ship shipping out to sea.. the coolest part is how the sailors line the boat. Click the picture below to see..I think its amazing. So grateful for the men and women willing to serve our country.
