birthday stuff!

the fam arrived bright and early fri am.  my sis went to work and i kept the kids busy inside due to the rain!

sigh

we did a lot of coloring

charlie!  

the plan was to take the kids swimming late afternoon when my sis finished up work but the pool was closed

grrrr

so we came up with a quick trip to crystal palace on this rainy day!

the kids were ok with it

we did a few rides and games then it was time for the party!

miss ellie blowing her birthday horn!

chilling on the jumpoline with daddy and the family wearing her birthday out fit

my little birthday girl!

the cake. it wasn't fancy. just a white cake covered in sprinkles

                                                  charlie even got her own mini cake
                                                      i missed her 3rd birthday and wanted to do something special for her!
                                                       happy late birthday charlie!

having her first taste of cake!

instant sugar rush

ha

it wasn't a reg cake! i told nate the story of my money cake when i was a kid and he wanted the same. so i got some coins and turned it into a money cake

the boys loved it

best buddies

i was there

getting ready to open her presents

gifts!

and we had our first accident on the jumpoline!  charlie broke her leg!  poor thing.  not sure exactly what happened but from what i understand she fell on it wrong

quinn was the first to sign her cast before they took off for a few days

to ease the pain of the family (nana/papa/aunty/shawn/quinn/charlie) going to the states with out him (he took it VERY well! so proud!!)  i took nate to the movies, he got to pick the movie, his treat and drink. he had a blast and i got to spend some time with him

it was a busy few days and my BABY is 1!!!! sob sob sob

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ELLIE. WE LOVE YOU!
