Jumpalooza!

We had so much fun jumping with Ava and Angela last week! Aubree absolutely loved going down the slides! Unfortunately, she didn't get the hang of climbing up the stairs right away and lets just say mommy was completely worn out and sore the next day! How sad! She did learn the stairs after a while but still wanted me to follow behind her for comfort. I think we will have to rent one of the bouncy houses with a slide so that she can get some practice at her second birthday party..........which is Oct 8th by the way ; )

Happy Birthday to Us!

Let's see if I remember how to do this.....

The month of August is full of birthdays on my side of the family. I think 4 to be exact. The most momentous of them all was my Granny's on the 17th who turned a very young 80 years old. To celebrate, my family threw her a party complete with food, cake, and acoustic RTR. Aubree shook her bon bon all day (this girl still loves music and loves to dance!). She was especially excited when her "Belly song" (LMFAO's Party Rock Anthem) came on! It is hysterical to watch Aubree light up and dance to this song. We sometimes listen to it over, and over, and over, and over again in my car. She knows that she can't listen to it in daddy's truck so she takes full advantage of her time in mommy's car and she will tell that to everyone she meets.

Granny her hand print on the side.....too cute!

I also had a birthday this month. I decided to stay low key this year and settled for macaroni from Jus Mac (delish!) on my actual birthday and sushi and Crave cupcakes (yummo!) the day after. Gotta love Birthdays! Thanks to an awesome family, I have some new MATCHING wine glasses, new perfume, a little spending money, and the most special coffee mug ever! Thanks guys!
