Birthday Week!

It's been an exciting couple of days with Micah's 11th birthday yesterday and Ailie's 3rd birthday today! Micah's birthday started out with his traditional cinnamon roll breakfast and opening presents. He got some Adidas indoor soccer shoes that he's been wanting, a soccer ball, lockers for his bedroom ( which are a project that he and Daddy will be doing together), and two videos that he loves from his sisters and brother. He played soccer with Dad in the afternoon and then finished the day with supper at "Five Guys" and birthday ice cream cake.
Ailie started her special day off with donuts-what better breakfast is there for a girl that constantly thinks about sugar? :). She opened her presents from Mom and Dad- a play computer, "hello kitty" purse, and brown boots. She got a manicure and pedicure from Mom this morning with pink sparkly nail polish and played outside, then opened presents from her brothers and sister at lunch. Grandpa and Grandma McCuen and Aunt Lauren came over to celebrate both birthdays tonight. Ailie had her choice for dinner-chicken nuggets, guacamole and chips and fruit salad. Micah got money and a gift card and Ailie got things for her new purse and an art box full of supplies. Her favorite thing was the tic tacs -the box was almost gone by bedtime. :).
Such fun days! Can't believe how fast the time goes by...wish we could slow it down! Each new stage is so exciting and we are so thankful for each one of our kids that God has given us!
