HAPPY BIRTHDAYS

 It may not look like it, but this is the start of my birthday. May 3. Only on my birthday are the kids allowed to eat out of the ice cream container for breakfast with me. :-)   

 Then we went to storytime and played at a park.

 My parents came over and we had a great salad dinner. It even had roasted caramelized pecans on it. Delicious and just like it was from Aubreys.

I wanted a salad and then eat a pint of coffee heath ice cream all myself. The entire thing with no comments! Yum!

Then we all got to go see Isaac play tball.

J and I got to hike House Mountain after work the day before my birthday. We walked right past a nasty black snack moving on a rock almost level with my head. NOT COOL! But it was still a very pretty hike and view.

 And then Olivia had a birthday. May 11. Donut breakfast. We should have stacked 6 donuts for the candle!

 Oh the happiness!

 Olivia has been wanting to go swimming. So we went. She was all smiles the whole time. And I'm a HUGE fan of the connected chest/arm floaties they had at the pool for the kids to use.

 Afterwards we went to G&G's house. The May birthday girls.

 Mom brought home this cool birthday hat, only Olivia didn't want to wear it. But it will get used for the next 10yrs at all birthday celebrations I'm sure.

 She got these rubberband copters. 

Elias was just hanging on for hugs. Isaac's rocket was going the wrong way when he let go. He really didn't mind doing his thing with Elias on his back.

 She gave all her flowers to Grandma.

Watching. 

Grandaddy and Judy also stopped by to give her a present.

We are so thankful for Olivia. Our lives are better because she was born! It's crazy how fast time goes.
