Adelene

and a few of the words she can say at almost 18 months... and all these words come when she feels like it...

thank you
please
here mom
mama
Bennett
Annabelle
Palmer
here you go

And she loves the toothbrush drawer, stomps her feet quickly when she really wants something, loves to spin herself around, walks quickly with just one arm swinging, and can thrown a very thought out tantrum.  She loves to gives kisses and hugs and blows many kisses when everyone leaves for school in the morning. Adelene thinks its so cool to put her siblings way too big boots on and walk around the house. She still adores her blanket and sucks her two left fingers with the blanket corner touching her nose.  She also loves to dance.  She is just a whole lot of fun!


CallaMae

One of CallaMae's favorite phrases is "I have a question to ask you..." and it usually involves asking for a snack but it cracks me up every time.


The Birthday Kiddos and I can't get the pictures in order and it's driving me crazy but I give up!

 Bennett turned 10 on November 30, 2015.  Because it was a big birthday, we decided he could do something "bigger" as far as a celebration was concerned.  He invited three friends to a hotel in Coldwater.  Darrin stayed overnight with them and watched them swim.  He also took them to play laser tag.
 CallaMae turned 3 on November 7, 2015.  Her party planning sisters threw together a really  nice family party for her.  Even her Uncle Tom came because he was in town for hunting.  We had cupcakes, sang, and opened gifts.  When it was over she said, "I don't want it to be my birthday any more."  And with any mention of the birthday the rest of the day, she would repeat that.
 Annabelle turned 9 on December 29, 2015.  Her birthday falls on Christmas break.  I took her out to lunch at Dawn and Phil's with her friends Allison and Kelsey.  Kelsey spent the rest of the day with us.  She did have dance in the evening and brought donuts for her dance friends.
 Eliza turned 5 on August 7, 2015.  She started the day by going to a movie with her dad, Bennett, and Annabelle.  Then she garage saled with me and Ann for her gifts.  It was so neat for her to pick out so many trinkets with her birthday money.  We had ice cream in the evening.

Adelene turned 1 on August 31st, 2015.  Her friend Kelsey threw a surprise party for her complete with cupcakes, games and gifts. All her friends came.  She had so much fun!
