February is birthday month!

We have been busy celebrating lots of birthdays this month, including Aunt Jenny, Chloe and my own. It has been a busy past two weeks.

Before the birthday pictures, here are a few pictures of a cute, messy baby!

So cute and tired!

Chloe invited her entire class to her birthday party this year, long before she ever informed mom and dad. We underestimated the girl's focus on her birthday celebration and did not think to discuss things with her starting in October. Because of said misunderstanding, Chloe invited her classmates to her party before ever asking us. We heard from classmates and parents that they were very excited to attend Chloe's party. This was all news to us! We did intend to throw a party for Chloe but on a smaller scale and with less school friends and more friends from church and outside of school. Needless to say, Chloe did invite all of her classmates to our home and not many other friends. It was quite the busy afternoon and we already informed Chloe that next year, we are doing things differently!

Chloe came home with a package on Friday from one of her classmates that was unable to attend the party. The pink package was so precious because of the note that was on it. David wanted Chloe to know that even though he couldn't make it to the party, he would be there in spirit. So sweet!

Elijah and Micah helped me prepare cupcakes early in the morning.

I love those two so much!

The children snacking and watching the talent show.

Check them all out! And they kept coming...
