Birthday Fairy's gift to Micah

This year the birthday fairy wanted to welcome Micah to the 2’s by giving him the worst sickness he’s had yet. Let’s back track…

Sunday 11/8:
We had Micah’s birthday party on Sunday the 8th because on his actual birthday we had our biggest ASA tournament of the year as well as a national youth baseball tournament…so we were a little booked! The party was GREAT! We got to have it at the house, which means that our grass was ready and the rock was laid. We enjoyed having our family and friends celebrate such an awesome little boy. The theme was SpongeBob so we had a SpongeBob piñata. When it was time to hit the piñata Micah buckled, he couldn’t bring himself to hit SpongeBob, (he hit him once then cried) I should have guessed that when I saw him kissing and hugging the piñata right before we hung it. He loved blowing out the candles on the cake (which was SpongeBob)and let Mom take it away to cut it (I didn’t want to traumatize him, we just beat the crap out of SpongeBob the piñata , so I didn’t want him to see us cutting him too!). He enjoyed, and is still enjoying the gifts that he received…Mom did an AWESOME job on the cake too!

Monday – Saturday:
Poor kid caught a virus that left him with a 104 temp in the middle of the night for 5 days straight. Long days, longer nights and lots of crying. Thankfully his temp broke on Saturday during nap. ..I was glad that we got to celebrate his birthday the previous Sunday, but was happier that he was able to have a good day on his actual birthday.

…On Saturday when he woke up I sang Happy Birthday to him and he immediately told me it was the “Movers” birthday (a Disney show, The Imagination Movers). So we made a Playdoh cake and sang happy birthday to the “Movers” and Micah. He spent the day feeling better and getting to play with the toys he had received the Sunday before!
So…Happy birthday Micah…and “Movers”!
This month we would like to wish Phillip (cousin), Lucas (cousin) and Grandma Machain a Happy Birthday! And a special Happy Birthday to Grandpa Machain…We miss you!

Until next time…
Micah 2…Birthday Fairy 1 (we will see who wins next year!)

Hello & Goodbye to Sum•mer

sum·mer 1 ˈsəmər/ noun 1 . the warmest season of the year, in the northern hemisphere from June to August and in the southern hemisphere from December to February. I just wanted to give myself a second to really think about this thing called summer. Anyone else think this definition is just a little bit vague? It's that time of year where we get all excited to have ZERO schedule, endless electronics, the chance to travel and cram in all of the fun you planned for all year long. Then when this so called "summer" ends, you feel bamboozled, like someone just waved that 4th of July pie you went to that party to specifically eat, right in front of your face only to look...not eat. Like seriously, it was here, right in front of my face, and now... it's gone. Now, now we pack lunch every night, we get our homework in (which I don't even understand), we figure out which parent is going to be the taxi for the day, we actually have to ...

She Turned 7!

SEVEN, she did it again... who does she think she is trying to get another year older on us. In all seriousness, she is SEVEN. Like, what happened to 5 and 6? Let me tell you what 7 looks like on my little Pripri... Just a few things about this girl 1. Guess who her favorite person is...duh. Micah 2. She is soooo much more compassionate and caring than I could have ever imagined. 3. She might be 7, however her attitude screams teen! She is sensitive but oh so brave and she is never afraid to take on new adventures! 4. Her best friend is still, you guessed it, Maggie. 5. Right now she is playing softball (second season) and is having a ton of fun. Cheerleading is still on her brain, but for now, we will stick with this. 6. When she laughs, you can't help but laugh with her. Her laugh alone will make you light up. 7. Her favorite things include: Unicorns, Bear (her pink one), Unicorns, Mermaids, those fake glasses (see pic below), her American Girl Doll (pic above), Uni...

The Big Apple

{deep breath}… We did it, we made it, and we are still alive to talk about it… We made it to and from New York City with our sanity in hand! Actually we got back on the 11th of October but it has taken me a few weeks to recover from the trip, I needed a little space between me and NYC, and now that I am feeling whole again I am ready to revisit our trip. When Matt and I were invited to my college teammates wedding in NYC there was NO WAY I was missing it. For one, she’s amazing and I was soooo pumped for her, and 2… it’s NYC! My only discrepancy was to take the kids or to leave them. Well when we asked my parents if they would be willing to take them while we were away, it turned into “sure we will watch them… in NYC!” So there it was the making of a weeklong family trip to the big apple. For those of you who know how type “A” I am, I am sure you could imagine how overwhelmed I became in thinking of all the things we were going to do while we visited, so when mom and dad said we...
