Libby

If her sisters' can do it, so can Libby! 

Hairspray

This spring, Abigail performed in her 1st musical, Hairspray Jr.  It was through our park district and she absolutely loved it!  She has the bug for singing and acting!  She begins her next musical, Annie, next week!  She's very excited to be an orphan!

Happy St. Patty's Day

Happy St. Patty's Day from our 3 lil Irish princesses!

December 2014

Wow!  I'm a little behind on the blog!  :)  I doubt anyone reads it anymore anyways!  But nevertheless, here's what I missed....

Abigail turned 7!  7!!!!!!!!!!
And it true Abigail fashion, she was sick and we had to cancel her birthday party!  But no worries, we made it up....in February!  I plan parties like I blog.....late!

Abigail got a sewing machine for her birthday and I'm happy to report, all the American Girls in our house are sleeping comfortably on pillows!

The girls were getting ready for our school's Christmas concert.  Of course I bought white and gold dresses for all the girls, but Libby refused to wear it.  So she wore the dress my dad bought Abigail.  It's amazing that all 3 wore the dress!

This was on Christmas eve.  I tried the old "sock" curler trick my mom used.  We are now proud owners of sponge curlers!  :)  But makes for a cute picture!

Abigail sang in the choir in church on Christmas eve.  It was really special and our family loved starting the holidays with a Christmas Eve mass!

This is Christmas day!  It was so warm out in Chicago that we were able to wagon to Nana and Papa's house for Christmas dinner!  Crazy!!!!

 

 

Happy 2nd birthday, Libby!

Our baby girl turned 2 in November!!!  It was a day of mixed emotions!  I love the personality she is developing as she gets older!  And it's been so much fun as our family has been able to do more as she gets older.  But she's still our baby!  And I wish I could keep her as a baby forever! 

We celebrated her birthday as a family at Two Toots!  Then, we had her birthday party on Thanksgiving since it was 3 days later!

Happy Birthday Libby Frances!  We live you "too much!" (Thats what Libby says when we put her to bed)!

Happy 5th Birthday, Caitlin Bug!

Caitlin turned 5 this year!!!!  She had a fun day celebrating at school, and then an extra fun birthday party!  All her friends from school and Lucy and Leigh joined her for a soccer and basketball party!  She is such a sweet, thankful, grateful lite girl!!!!  I'm not sure where the time is going, but I couldn't love this little girl any more!  We hope all your wishes come true!  We love you!

Halloween

We interrupt the wedding posts for one about Halloween. This year we were very original and went with the Frozen theme.  Us and every single family in America!  I wanted to do something original, but the girls really wanted to be Anna and Elsa...and I could only imagine going to school where all your friends are Elsa, and your mom made you be a vampire (although it would have been cute).  So we got on board and were Frozen.  And frozen we were...because it was COLD!!!!!

 

We didn't do as many Halloween things as we normally do.  The girls wore their costumes to school and we went trick-or-treating around the neighborhood after school.  We also took the girls to a pumpkin patch!

 

I have some great pictures on my camera that I will download at home and post...but for now, here are Anna, Elsa, and Olaf!
