Birthday girl!

We're right in the middle of birthday season around here. We have Zack, Mary & Dustin within about 3 weeks of eachother, so its a month long party around here!


Our cute little Mary Cate turned two! Its always difficult for me to think back and remember the days leading up to and the day she was born. Its definitely more enjoyable to think about the birth of our other two, but remembering the day Mary was born helps me remember the strong faith and miracle this little fireball brought into our home. I can't wait til she's old enough to tell her about the days and weeks leading up to her birth, maybe one day when she's a teenager, she'll appreciate me more (or not!). Some notable things about our Mary Cate
~She is as feisty & stubborn as a two year old can get
~She can scream louder than all of us combined and does so on a regular basis
~She loves to eat and will pound down almost anything
~I don't think there is a cuter laugh on earth
~She can shake her booty with the best of them
~She loves to sing songs with actions to them, its adorable
~Her smile will melt your heart



Opening her presents, she wasn't quite sure what to make of it all, but Zack & Kiki were excited, so she was excited too!




We lit the candle and blew it out about 4 times, she loved to just watch the light flicker!


Grandma & Grandpa Goodrich and uncles TJ & Riley came down for the big birthday weekend and like always, the kids could not get enough of them! Thanks for making the big trek down south to the ridiculously hot desert, we love you!
