Photo rundown of the twins' 4th birthday party

We had the twins' birthday party today (yes, a Sunday - we are not church people - sorry).  Only one of the five families we invited could not make it, so it worked out perfectly.  Plus, tomorrow is their actual birthday so why not do it one day before.
One massive cake with two very different themes - Avengers and Brave







What I learned:  
Some parents do not know how to behave when a pinata is brought into play.

Weekend leftovers - it will have to do

This week has been INSANE!  A quick rundown of our events:

  • Addy started all day kindergarten.  Heartbreak. 
  • PTO business has required my time nearly every single day this week.  Yes, every day. 
  • Dance classes started, and we had to stop the dance performance team.  So, we are back to one night a week for dance.  Both girls, two different classes, same studio.  
  • Soccer practices = two nights a week
  • First soccer game was today.  Addy scored a goal!!!  Eligh made a couple stops as goalie - yes, my little string bean stopped some soccer balls.
  • Cardiologist appointment location was wrong (blame insurance company for giving me a number that did not match the actual location).  Rescheduled for next week.  
  • I am most proud of myself for having a home cooked meal planned, prepared, and eaten by each of us (even if at different times and or locations) this entire week.  It can be done, just takes quite a bit of planning.  
  • I need to discuss Addy's first week of school and all that we have learned thus far.  
  • Before I can get to all that, the twins turn FOUR on Monday!!!!  
  • Two back to back weeks of an emotional roller coaster for this overly, sensitive mommy.

The end of summer

We spent the morning (before the heat) at the playground, running, playing, sliding, swinging, hanging, and riding bikes.  I hope today along with all the memories we made this summer have filled my three little ones with joy.




Her bag and lunch are packed, but her heart is heavy with sadness.  

Good night my little one, tomorrow is a big day for you and our family, as it is time for mommy and daddy to let you grow.
