Cupcake & Cupcake's BFF

I was thinking if I was Cupcake reading through my Mom's Blog- what would she say....

OMG she would not be happy if she didn't see a pic of her BFF.

Since the day they turned 2 they have seen each other almost every day school was opened. School turned into camp so for the past three years of their short little lives their world has been about seeing each other. This each Kindergarten separated them but lucky them- Mom & Mom are friends so we make sure they see each other. Last week Marco & I took the girls to dinner. Since the BFF's Mom had to tend to other business they got to take showers and play before bedtime.

When the camera went up- this was the first pose. Cheers to Best Girlfriends'!

Cupcake is in KINDERGARTEN!

WOW IT IS OCTOBER!

Bad Mommy!

How could I not post our first day of Kindergarten?

Since July I have been on the Kindergarten roller coaster! If I knew making such a BIG decision about where our daughter would go to Kindergarter was going to be such a HUGE decision I may have started thinking about this during the flight home from Moscow.

It is ALL me. I just wasn't ready for Kindergarten. It has been about 30+ years since I have been in Kindergarten and neither of us are in the education field. All I know is this is when they learn to read and write so it has to be somewhat important.

I wish someone would have given me a clue why we should like bottles & diapers!

Don't get me wrong- I am starting to fall inlove with Peanut Butter Sandwiches & a School Bus but it is no joke when one says "wait until they get older" Every year seems to bring BIG parental decisions- I NEED MY MOMMY!!!

BIrthday Details

This year was so great. There were a few unexpected twists and a few great surprises.

After we ordered the invitations (a month earlier) we needed to change the date as there was a conflict for many guests who were invited to a wedding for a teacher at the school. When I was running around looking for envelopes to fit so I could print little labels to cover the date and post the new date, it felt like a big deal but the date change brought our most

OMG YOU WOKE UP LOOKING FIVE!

FIVE!

Cupcake is turning five. We are getting ready for the annual Cha-Cha Bash. Celebrating the life of our daughter is the greatest time of year for us. Marco has been working endless hours the past 3 weeks building her playhouse. A little or ALOT of wood chips, a few flowers in the flower boxes, and the furniture set up inside- ALL FINISHED BY SUNDAY!

This past month has been all about the Cha-Cha bash. From goodie bags to the wedding cake every detail is in place for a great day. Most importantly all of our special friends are arriving from out to town to join us. We truly are so delighted all of our friends and family will be here.
