Birthdays!!






Juliana and Madison have both had their birthdays yay! Juliana is now 1 and Madison is 3. For Juliana's party we had a luau which went really well. She didnt seem overwhelmed at all which I am thankful for. Madison turned 3 this past Sunday, but we will not be having her party for a another week and a half. Here are some pics from each birthday. I'll post pics of Madison's party after its all done!

Well that wasn't any fun...

Today Juliana and I were in a minor car accident...really we just got rear ended, but when your baby is in the car, it's scary! We were stopped at a light, and the lady behind us wasn't paying close attention and she slammed right into us. Juliana just screamed, poor thing, and I cried. I took her to the doctor and luckily she is just fine! Fortunately our van wasn't damaged, at least not visibly, but I do have to take it in to get checked. Now I just have to hope that the insurance company will be easy to deal with!

Fun Fun Fun!!!











It has been a busy couple of weeks for us. I took a cake decorating class this month, finally! I learned a lot, you can see my stunning creations below LOL. The rainbow cake was my first, unfortunately before I could take a pic, Madison picked up the cake carrier, and tipped it a bit, so one side lost its frosting. I heard "mommy it's too heavy" LOL.


Last week we made a trip up to a nearby park and zoo, Point Defiance, which was a lot of fun. Madison loved looking at the animals, and playing in the kid's zone. When the zoo closed, Rich met his cross country kids for practice, while the girls and I played at the park.


I worked a lot of days this month, and while I have enjoyed that, I'm looking forward to working a little less for awhile. I hadn't done a delivery since April, and now I've done 4 in the last couple weeks, including my first set of twins, which was very exciting! It gave me enough of an adrenaline rush to last awhile for sure!


Juliana is busily cutting teeth. She got her first 2 four months ago, and I was starting to wonder if she had anymore, but she cut 3 in a row, and is working on 3 more. Her sleep is affected by this off and on I guess. She typically still wakes up at least once a night, but I know she will sleep through the night someday. She is standing really well on her own now, and it won't be long before she takes those first steps.


Madison starts pre-school on Thursday, which I think she'll enjoy. We had a visit to meet the teacher and see the classroom tonight, and though she was a bit standoffish with the teacher, she liked the toys in the room, and had a tantrum when it was time to leave. To be fair though, she didnt have a nap today because I was (finally) painting her room.


Rich starts back to work tomorrow, so it's back to our old routine!
