Celebrating 5!!! Oh, and 37 and 43.

We have not 1, nor 2, but 3 birthday's to celebrate in April! 


In a mere 7 days, our sassy little thing will be 5!!!! Figuring out how to stop time is a necessity for me, because these children are growing up WAY too fast. 
 Yesterday, between the Easter festivities we celebrated all our April peeps.

 I thought a little daisy themed party would be sweet.

 We got mason jars, tied sweet ribbon around them and added daisies!! Pretty cute!!
 Hope was of course, blessed with tons of cute stuff!

 And Paul got another HUMONGO knife, because 785 aren't enough.
 And let me take this moment to tell you s little story about what  happened to Hope's cake.

Friday before we were headed out of town, I picked up Hope's cake. I laid it in the front seat of the car, and we were good to go. We had to make a stop and Pierce jumped up front and of course Hope thought she needed to join him up there.

"Kids, do not horse around up here, go on and get back in the backseat."

Scuffle broke out between the kids, and wouldn't you know...

PIERCE SAT ON THE CAKE.
 Had the cake for about 15 minutes and it was sat on.
 Good thing is, Hope didn't seem to mind too much.
 Just ecstatic to be celebrating her birthday!
    And today is Rico's Blade's Schmoopie's  Paul's actual birthday!! Happy Birthday Honey!!!                                             
 And Jo, is now 43! Crazy, huh??
 But I just cannot believe that this little peanut is on the verge of 5....
 My family is growing up.
