Happy 2nd Birthday Mia!

Our sweet friend Mia turned 2 in December and we went to her party to celebrate!! Madi just loves her little friend Mia and also loved her little "rollercoaster" in her backyard. She couldn't get enough of it! You can see in her face how excited she was every single time she went down it and yes she was on the bigger side-I don't think she'll be able to ride it again but she did enjoy it at the party!I told Madi that she had to let the other kiddos have a turn and she was really good and got off and did then she came in and told me that Brian was stuck on the car so I had my camera ready...sure enough Mia's daddy wanted to take a turn....after that Madi said she definately wasn't too big for it :) Brian had to get help getting out!! Good times :)
Here's the birthday girl blowing out her #2 candle!! She was so happy to listen to everyone sing happy birthday to her and right on cue she blew out the candle after we stopped singing. What a cutie!After she was done opening all of her wonderful fun presents, her uncle and aunt said there was one more gift out front and we all got to go see her new Dora bike! She loved it!!

Before we left Madi asked if she could go out back on go down the "rollercoaster" one last time. I told her that would be fine but to make it a good one. And she sure did...
...she decided to go down backwards!! We had a great time at your party Mia thank you so much for having us!!

Madi's playdate

We love having playdates!! Especially with one of our favorite friends who has been gone all summer. We missed you bunches Maggie and are so happy you are home!

So the girls had a playdate on Friday and boy it never ceases to amaze me just how much they can do in a short time.

They played DRESS UP......after they played dress up with their dolls and bears.....and got all of the doll stuff they could find. And lets not forget the make-up, a princess needs her make-up!

They played DOCTOR. Each one took turns being the doctor and the patient, with a tempature, blood pressure readings, listening to their hearts beating and last but not least a shot!! (dad, I know this makes you proud)

And I think one of the best things the girls did was.......

Yup!! JUMP ON THE COUCH. They were actually climbing onto the end table then jumping off that onto the couch. I'm sure there are some of you gasping but I don't seem to mind it so much....the smiles on their faces and the giggles, like they are getting away with something, is priceless. Plus I catch Madi jumping from couch to couch and she just loves it!!

Thanks for coming over and playing Maggie!!
