Celebrating Lillian

Lillian will be six this week!  We had a very big weekend celebrating her.  She is sweet, tenderhearted, mischievous, and just a joy to be around. She just finished kindergarten and is headed to first grade.  It is amazing how fast this six years has passed. As the middle child, I think she has the best of both words.  She has a very sweet sister bond with Maddie, and she and Reed are best buddies. I just can't wait to continue to watch her grow. She had her first dance recital this weekend, and was just awesome.


Getting a ride from dad!

Nana and Pop love this sweet girl!

Love this family!

What a cutie!

Big sis got in on the fun, too.

Shhh......You weren't suppose to take any photos, but I just couldn't resist.

I blinked my eye, and they are almost grown!

Following the recital, we headed to Olive Garden, which was Lillian's choice.  It was quite a surprise. I just knew we were headed to Burger King!  The picture below is the reaction I got when I asked Josh if he wanted to take a selfie!

Love this sweet girl!

Up, up and away! We headed to Surge after eating.  Lillian is celebrating with friends later in the week, but this kicked off her birthday week.

Who knew you could get so excited over a baby doll?  I'm telling you-this is one precious girl!

Back to the fun!

And now on to a few other events!  Maddie and I enjoyed a little game of checkers and a meal together after her gymnastics practice one night.

Reed just finished at Jacob's Ladder and will be heading to big school in August.  We are all going to miss the programs and activities at this special place.  We are also going to miss the way they have loved all three.  Jacob's Ladder has been apart of their lives since Maddie was a baby.

He is happiest in his boots, blue jeans, belt and hat!  Cutest stinker ever!!

We spent a morning at the park, but sadly it didn't end well for Maddie.  Here they are carrying her to jail!  I never did find out exactly what she did!

And this precious one is now 12 weeks old.  He will be beginning Miss Cathy's this week. He will freely give you the sweetest smile, and he loves his hands! We are totally in love!

That's a wrap on this week!  We have more gymnastics and softball All Stars, as well as a beach trip coming up.  I am also keeping John Sawyer a day a week!  So much fun!
