May is a fun and busy month in our house! Big E turned 8, Miss Em turned 3, Mom turns **cough** thirty-something **cough**, and then add on Mothers Day, teacher appreciation week/end of school stuff, and capping it all off with Memorial Day! Whew!
Here are a few highlights from my growing babies...
BIG E:
- Loves to dress in black, neon, camo, and sometimes all three.
- Loves swords, nerf guns, and spy gear. Requested a double-edged sword for this birthday, but settled on a hatchet.
- Went turkey hunting for the first time (no one was hurt - not even a turkey)
- Best friend is Kale
- Aces most spelling tests
- Super responsible kid and an awesome big brother! He makes me proud every day!
MISS EM:
- Loves to wear her "cow boots"
- Rough & tough girl. Walked in one day to find her sparring with a boy from her class.
- Loves to sing, especially Happy Birthday, ABCs, Old McDonald, and Little Bunny Foo-Foo
- Wanted scissors and candy for her birthday
- Best friend is Sutton aka "Sutt-Sutt". Other buddies include Sibley "Sibby-rose" and Kate.
- "Yesterday" means anything from this morning to three years ago (example: "I was at that hospital yesterday when I was a baby."
- Total daddy's girl, but gives mama plenty of hugs and kisses too. Love our baby girl!
This year the kids had a horse party for their birthdays! If you ask Em which was her favorite: the slower smaller horse, or the bigger faster horse, the answer is of course the big fast one (not pictured)!
