Wow! What a weekend!!It started when Mimi and Poppop got to town on Thursday afternoon.  We took them and the girls to the mall on Friday to get some energy out....and April did the slide all by herself! :) Here she goes: She also discovered the tunnels.... Friday night, my cousin's family came over to give April her present since they could not come to the party....and we got this cute picture of Grace and Chloe:  and then Saturday was party day!!  We had a house-full of guests (because it was snowing! no chance of going outside...) but I think everyone had a great time.  April loved the singing, and had no problem with her cupcake: neither did this girl: Aunt Laura and Connor came all the way to celebrate April :)  Connor had a pretty good time!! After lunch & cupcakes, it was time for presents! April got so many nice things & cute clothes for the summer!  She'll be the style icon of the church nursery

hmmm.....is this something to eat? i'll try it.... mom, are you really letting me have this? i love it. hmm...better keep eating it.... mom's coming over, will she take my delicious cupcake? yum.

Happy Birthday April Hope!!  One year ago you joined our family, but it seems like you've always been here!  Can't imagine life without you :) April 25, 2011 May June July August September October November December January February March April 25, 2012

Chloe is going through a phase where she likes to hold her hands up or out and have her picture taken. It's led to some interesting shots :) (this was laundry day, which is why there are no sheets on the bed!!) But I get some good ones too :) Not always in focus, because she moves even faster than my fast camera sometimes, but still cute :)

You know my love for babies in hats :) April has been wearing some lately:

not the green ones....just the black ones :)
