First REAL Birthday Party

Aleah was invited to her First Birthday Party. They were asked to wear a costume if they perferred. I had Aleah's fairy costume out, but she saw her cowboots and wanted to wear them. How she loves her little red boots!!! These children were so cute trying to rope a plastic bull and each other, shooting at a target with a laser gun, and running up and down steps. The decorations was of girly girl colors with a western scenery.

Aleah and her dad eating finger food before she headed off to play.

How about these girls!! Aleah and the Birthday Girl had a blast.

Miss Aleah thought she would try to pull this bull loaded with children. She did not have much luck with this plan.

The Birthday Girl was beautiful with her little outfit on!! They sure did enjoy eating cake after all of the playing. Two little girls caught in the act!! They decided to sneak into the other room and get into the gift bags made for the guess.

What A Turkey!!

Oh my!! what a cute little turkey. The children made turkeys at preschool this week. Each day I cannot wait to see her and to see what they have been learning. She is learning so much at this school. These teachers are great in planning, keeping them safe, and nurturing. It has been a positive change for our family.

Aleah is so proud of her little turkey. I do not think she has named it yet. I am sure that is coming. I remember saving all of these little things that Holly made in school. She never went to preschool; however, she graduated in the 10% of her class. I am so proud of both of my girls. It makes me smile to see how God has blessed me each day.

Our Little Princesses

I cannot believe she is growing up so fast! She loves the princesses. When I picked her up from preschool today, she looked so cute with her princesses shirt and matching demin jacket. Normally by the afternoon-pick up time-, she has pulled the bow out and her hair is all over her head. She actually looked like I had just dropped her off for school. I could not wait to get home for some pictures:)

This picture is in front of the curio that is full of dolls, including princesses, that belong to Holly. I collected these dolls for Holly when she was little. Aleah wants in here so bad to play. Poor child like she does have enough to play with in her own toy box.

A Fairy has arrived at the house

It is so hard to get her to smile for the camera. This was taken before we went Trick or Treating. Her daddy had to work as usual, so we went to grandparents and friends. She actually did not want leave some of the places. She really understood how it worked this year. We meet up with her big sister, and she took her to some places. I believe she enjoyed her sister more that being with her Mom. That is ok!! I am so glad they love each other.

She is just precious in her costume as Tinker Bell. I think her cat Oreo enjoyed playing with the wand as much as Aleah has this week. I wonder what she will want to be next year for Halloween??

Need Help Folding Clothes?

One day last week Aleah said, "Mom I want to help you fold towels". "Really! Ok! This is what I found when I got back from putting another load in the dryer and the washing machine. She is GOOD!! I was impressed with her ability to fold.

This shot was after all of the hard work of folding. She is probably thinking what are you going to bring for me to fold now because I need a break from all of this work.
