What an Awesome Year - Happy Gotcha/Family Day CC!

I love my kids!

CC screamed with delight when she saw her Puppy Cake!

This was the "Puppy Cake" that made my daughter's day!
I've finally realized she has a huge sweet tooth!

CC was wearing this yellow outfit the first time we saw her! She weighed 18 lbs. on "Family/ Gotcha Day" and now she's 25 lbs. I can't believe it still fits a year later!!!!

My Lil' Artist!

WOW! My daughter surprised me with beautiful art work today! I walked into the kids play room/kitchen to find CC with a huge PERMANENT BLUE MARKER in hand! She displayed her art work proudly on the couch, the ottoman (as seen in the photo), the carpet, the kitchen cabinets, the TV, and of course herself! Was I mad? Heck YES! But after a couple of minutes I started to giggle and ran to get my camera before I frantically (and without much hope) cleaned up her art work!

The Joy Of Riding A Bike!

It was a BIG day for Spiky Doo and my husband caught it all on his cell phone! Spiky Doo learned to ride a friends bike without training wheels for the very first time today. CC also had a blast zooming by on her Strider Bike! I can't tell you how hard it was to get SD to do this today...about 3 weeks ago he put his bike out by the curb for the trash man to pick up! :)
