Jaden's 7th Birthday.

Jaden invited 21(!) of his closest friends over for an out of this world Star Wars birthday party.  Jaden's motto has always been 'the more the merrier.'  Judging by the noise level, I think everyone had a blast!  (If you've never tried to orchestrate a game of Musical Chairs with over 20 kids, I don't recommend trying it!  Ha!!)

PRESENTS!  D-D-D-D-Dora was everywhere, and Karis loved it!  She also received some very girly things (tu-tu, bracelets, sunglasses, purses, ballet shoes, etc.) which she tried on immediately!  She loves anything “shiny.”  :)

That is one BEAUTIFUL bike!  And, that is exactly what you’re supposed to wear when you ride a bike.  Cambrie wanted to take a spin on it, too!

Our baby girl turns 2 today!

P8160071bw40fxDear Karis Nicole,                        Two years ago today we all met you for the very first time!  When you came into our world, you greeted us loudly and seemed to enjoy the excitement around you.  Everyone loved you from the moment they laid eyes on you, especially brother Ryder.  When he first saw you in your bassinet he said, “He’s cute!”  (We had to explain to him that you were a girl:)

You are always on the search for adventure and fun.  Anything your brothers can do will be fine for you as well.  You drove their jeep when you were 16 months old, and you tried to rollerskate at 18 months.  Even though you try to be rough and tough like the boys, you are definitely a GIRL!  Make-up, jewelry, hats, and shoes are some of your favorite things.  A few weeks ago, Mommy took you to the grocery store and as soon as we got out of the van you asked, “Where’s my purse?” 

Miss Karis, you are such a little bundle of joy.  Jaden loves being your big brother, helping take care of you, and showing you new things.  Ryder loves watching Dora and Diego with you, playing games with you, and eating popsicles together.  Mommy loves singing and dancing with you, fixing your hair, and having tea parties.  Daddy loves your ‘welcome home kisses,’ tickle time, and having his “Booboo” help him get the mail.  We can’t wait to get to enjoy all the days to come that you will fill with wonder, fun, and love.

Happy Birthday to our precious little girl!!

We love you!!!
