Two Major Events...

1)----
Ethan Started School. OMG I have a Kindy Kid. And the homework they sent home on the first day(!) was NuTz!!! It was a little too heart wrenching for me though, Ethan didn't take to it all that great, and Monday and Tuesday morning were spent crying outside his classroom door after the bell rang. Let me clarify...I was crying. I was an emotional basket case. All was well by Wednesday. He was excited to go to class.
This was how he looked pretty much the WHOLE morning!

I was putting on a brave face....

And this was what got the water works going.

2)------
Cam turned 1. Quite possible my last baby turned 1. We had a "Pretty Pink Pirate Princess" theme, which fits Cam to a T. She had the Most awesome cake:






Which she thouroughly enjoyed lol:



She had lots of fun letting Daddy (or Dede as she calls him) help open presents:







She loved loved loved (did I mention loved?) the balloons:










And there is the obligatory photos of a naked baby wearing a tiara eating a fruit roll-up:




It was a great day full of many memories that I will cherish forever. It has been a fantastic year, and God has blessed me two times over with such beautiful, precious babies. I feel so lucky to have been chosen to be their Mommy! They are the greatest gifts I have ever been given, and have taught me more about life than I can ever hope to teach them. I can only hope that at the end of the day, I am deserving of these children. They are such blessings in my life, and I cherish every moment I have with them, and every breath I am able to take in their presence!
