Morgan's 4 Year, and Jackson's 2 Year Photo Shoot November 19, 2011

Above is my favorite one of Jackson. It shows his true eye color. Just like his daddy's.

Above is my favorite of Morgan.

For those of you who didn't get a Christmas Card from us, this wasn't it, but it's one you can enjoy anyway. We had several returned to us due to wrong addresses :( But we really do hope you all had a great Christmas and New Year's.

I never wrote a birthday post for my little girl. Between the cleaning, packing, and getting ready for a 4 week vacation, I've just been too pooped.

Despite her feisty attitude, Morgan is the light of her parents' eyes. She brings so much joy to us. I know I say that about both my kids, all the time, but it's so true. There are days when we're driving in the car and I look at her through the rear view mirror. She just gives me a big Morgan smile and it makes me all emotional.

Morgan still loves everything Princess and Strawberry Shortcake. She is going to preschool 2 days a week. She's learning so much! Spanish, ballet, tap, sign language, writing, reading. She can write her name sometimes, but is very easily frustrated. She recognizes O, X, S, G, A, M. She is very smart (in my opinion) and is good at putting things together. I love when she gets that wheels-are-turning look on her face. She's singing more and more every day but still gets embarassed when she realizes someone is listening. She is officially 100% out of diapers and pull-ups. She no longer has to wear them to bed and I'm SO HAPPY!!!

Some of my favorite Morgan sayings:

"Oh snap"

"Table clock" (instead of cloth)

"Growed up" (instead of throw up)

"Neckslet" (necklace)

"Disgusting!"

I can't believe she's already 4. She's such a great kid. A little emotional, but great!!

Jackson's Birthday Party, and My SURPRISE Party!

I decided last minute that I should have some kind of "theme" for Jackson's little party. We went with sports.

I went to pick up the pizza and when I got home, Shelly had decorated for me :) She's so tricky! I was suprised and SO EXCITED!!

I was surpised with gifts too! I have the best friends EVER!

Gift card for a pedicure! YAY!

Oh Shelly....she knows me too well!

Bath bubbles to help me sleep better :)

"Ephent"

Jackson LOVES steering wheels!

He wouldn't put it down!

Awesome Cricut Cartridge case!

Now he has a microphone to sing "Rolling in the Deep" into.

Singing Happy Birthday. He loved it!

Unsure about the candles

He blew both candles out by himself.

SURPRISE!!!! Ice Cream cake for me!!

I loved sharing my Happy Birthday with my baby boy!

Still doing the crazy face on demand!

Nikki and her sister, Taylor. They didn't have sports jersies or shirts, so they made their own!

Me and my angels. (Well one was a grumpy angel)

The after party...
