Chuck helping Laney. He tried to take her sucker so she could open presents. She was not going to give him the sucker!



Laney's new favorite food...cheese sticks.

Laney's cake and the cake for everyone else
We had Laney's birthday party yesterday. It was so wonderful. She had tons of guests and enjoyed herself so much!
We had chicken nuggets, cheese sticks (Laney's new favorite food) and chips with dip. Teresa Harrill, that teaches with me made her cakes. They were adorable. When Laney started to eat her cake, she picked up the whole plate and mashed her face into it to eat. She ate a little bit and then she was done. We had made suckers that looked like flowers and she wanted to get back to her sucker she had started before cake. We also had pink M&M's for a party favor.
It did rain but we had everything inside and the kids all enjoyed themselves.
I had wanted a cute dress off of Etsy.com, my favorite site. I just could not bring myself to pay so much for a dress that she would only wear one time. So, my mom made her dress and Lee's uptown made the applique. It was the cutest thing I have ever seen.
She got tons of pink, girlie presents. She really needed them. Our house seems to be full of boy stuff. She also got lots of cute clothes for the fall and winter.
We have enjoyed every minute of everyday during the past year. She has been such a blessing. Carter loved having her birthday party and did very well with letting her have the spotlight. He is such a great big brother. We could not be more blessed!

Laney's Birthday Invitation


Here is Laney's birthday invitation. A store on Etsy, my new favorite site, created it and e-mailed it to me. All I have to do is print it out at Wal-Mart. It is so convenient.
Laney is walking most of the time now. She has three teeth and is working on her fourth one.

The Princess...

We went out on the lake with Nonna and Papa (Karrie's parents) last weekend. Laney loved being in the water.

We took Laney outside to take her pictures for her birthday invitations. We dressed her in a tutu and a tiara. When Carter saw that she was dressed up, he wanted to get dressed up too. I wanted to share pictures and her invitation.
Carter is doing great in school. He loves kindergarten, thanks to Mrs. Burgess and Mrs. Farris! We are so excited that he is enjoying it so much.
