Shaylee's Birthday Party

On Saturday we celebrated Shaylee's 2nd birthday. We had cupcakes and icecream with family. It was really fun, and Shaylee had a really good time with her cousins! Thanks to all those who came, and for your thoughtful gifts!

Late

I know it is the end of January, but I never posted pictures from our Christmas. So, here ya go!

Christmas Pictures

Today I took Shaylee to get her pictures taken for Christmas. Easier said than done. This little munchkin was not so cooperative today. First, I let her take a nice long nap so that she was in a good mood once we got to the studio. So, when she awakens I distract her with marshmallows and her favorite movie, "Planet 51". I pull out the curling iron and start away at her hair. The fit that she threw you would have thought I was beating her. The tears that were flowing and the shrieks of terror escaping were as if I was torturing this poor little girl. Well, I finally finish and put her in the car and we are on our way. The dress was at my mom's house. I walk to to the doorway and it is locked, I walk to the side door and LOCKED! I had to be at JC Penny in twenty minutes and I still had to dress this distressed tot! Bah, so grandma saves me and I get Shaylee bug dressed. I get to the studio and Shaylee is bouncing around like a crazy person. She won't stay still and is climbing all over everything, all the props, etc. She won't look at the camera or smile. But, I guess what can you expect out of a one year old, ha ha. But we did manage to get some cute ones, which I knew we would because you have all heard me say it a million times,"Shaylee is just so cute!" Here is the proof!

Shaylee Bug

I took little miss Shaylee bug to Wheeler Farm today. She has never been, and I really wanted to get out of the house. She loved the cows, the chickens, and especially the ducks. She got a little scared when the rooster crowed right in front of her. I took my camera with me, but she could hardly take her eyes off the animals so that I could get a good picture. Of course, they always turn out adorable (I know that I have a biased opinion!)


Like I said, adorable, right? Ha ha. Well Shaylee did have a really good time. I am so happy that I get to spend more time with her. I could not ask for more!

Funfetti!

Tonight Trina came over and we made Funfetti, Halloween cupcakes. They are the most delicious, appetizing, awesome, tasty cupcakes ever made. Mostly because Trina and I made them, but that goes without saying.

The pictures really speak for themselves. Ahhh... I love funfetti.

Shaylee turns one!

On Septemeber 23rd Shaylee girl tuned the big one. I worked late that night, so we decided to throw a big combined party with Ladd on Saturday, the 25th. We had pizza and crazy bread, cake, watermelon and all sorts of treats. Thanks to everyone that came, it was a blast.

Shaylee and Ladd share the same birthday, so we decided to celebrate together!

Shaylee had a Tinkerbell theme. My mom mad her an awesome Tinkerbell cake.

Ladd loves Buzzlightyear, so Shannyn had a special cake made just for him. He could not wait to get that Buzz off the cake.

Once again, thanks to all the family and friends that came over to celebrate. We really appreciate all the support!
