Is it May?

Ok, I have 2 days until Mom's Birthday,  13 days until  Mother's Day, 20 days until Cupcake's Party (having 2 months early since we are leaving for the summer), 24 more school days waking at 6 am, and 30 days until we leave for the summer.

All I can think is HOT PINK & Zebra for her party!

I will post some party preview pics this weekend.

Spring Break?

We aren't big planners but the commercials for The Atlantis broke us down in February so we decided to go for Spring Break in March. We went before baby and it was one of our favorite trips. It is a quick flight, and a great resort. If you love water like Cupcake, it is endless hours of many pools and beaches. Since it was spring break, there was never a moment she couldn't find kids her age to play. We got back last week. School is now closed Thursday until Tuesday, I thought last week was Spring break?

The night before we left, her top tooth was hanging. The second night it fell out and now...she looks like a big kid. The pics look like a daddy & me trip - I am just the family photographer.

Anyway- 2 thumbs up for a great family place! Swimming with the Dolphins was Cupcake's favorite activity! Being 48 inches could of been the only thing to make her trip better. She didn't like not being able to go on all of the slides and not so crazy about wearing a vest for the rides they let her go on- but overall it was a week of BIG SMILES and lots of laughs!



























THE END.

Valentine's Day & More

Happy Valentine's Day from Mommy & Daddy! Cupcakes new hobby is roller skating. She just loves it so we surprised her with these really cool skates. Why are they so cool? The expand Size 10, 11, 12, 13...thats a great deal for $30.00! Maybe you can see the white button under the pink- you just push and stretch. On the bottom of the insert- there is elastic-Voile- adjustable skates! PS. She loves them
Coincedently, Disney usually has an ice skating show around Valentine's Day. We didn't have much to do so I picked up tickets the morning of and we headed down to Disney's 100 years on Ice- It was a good Saturday morning in Cupcakeland.


Fancygirlboutique put together these great Valentine's Day bags for her classmates. With only 9 girls to get little gifts for it was easy. School uniforms allow for only red and white hair bows so this was a great little treat in lieu of candy. The girls could put their Valentine's Cards in the bag too.

Surprise! My mother is a teacher and NEVER has the same days off. This year we had President's Day Weekend so Mom and Cupcake and I hopped on a plane to CA to the cousins. Since there was a new arrival of Baby J we had to go!

While in Cali-We couldn't miss Disney!


Baby J's big sisters and Cupcake...

Introducing Baby J- yummy xoxo

A little more Christmas Trip...

So one of Cupcake's highlight during our Christmas vacation was she was selected to be on SLIME LIVE. The ship has a Nick JR show. I am sure the Santa hat did it! I wish I actually hit the record instead of the photo mode.

Second Highlight...She was so excited to hang with Dora and Diego. I was not so sure she was going to be interested but she couldn't get enough!

This is smiling face I see every morning and every night. Cupcake is so much fun. From planes, trains, and automobiles she brightens everyone's day! The most fun spirit you could ever imagine. Those of you who know me well...I start the mushiness as soon the calendar flips to February. Save the chocolates and the flowers...
Send the Kleenex, this February 14th will be 5 years. For old times sake for those who may have followed - I like to post cupcakes. The tears are starting. Anyone else feel like crying their eyes out on anniversaries of the best days of our lives? Tonight I held her like a baby telling her what a itsy bitsy yummy cupcake she was but even at 45 lbs she is still my itsy bitsy Little Cupcake! xoxo

Cathcing up from October 2011

The beginning of October was difficult. We miss our beloved Scooby. October was a busy month. The next week we went to NY to see Pinkalicious. The girls LOVED the show. Cupcake brought her best bud from home Lilly, my goddaughter Alayna, and we met her favorite girl in NJ-Olivia & the most famous peanut from Brooklyn Leila. When we arrived the night before the show we made a quick pit stop to American Girl. While walking in the City Cupcake saw Angry Bird T-Shirts in a window so matching T-shirts with Daddy had to happen. We had a blast.

The minute we arrived home she changed into a matching outfit with her Baby and then a matching outfit with her Daddy. You would think after a four hour ride she would pass out. Soon after she went digging through the AGD bags to find the sleeping bag for her Baby...good night.












Mom, What is a phone booth?












The next day Cupcake had hear big trip to the Farm. They learned about the different corn, walked a corn maze, picked squash, went on a hay ride and took home a little pumpkin for Halloween.
The next weekend we did the mall & a Birthday Party. Since my mother felt left out of our trip to AGD in NY we decided to the one in Tyson's. Then Halloween and then the Christmas program at school What happened to November?
