Auden's first field trip!

This is...um...about two months late but better late then never, right?!  Wayyyy back in October, Auden had her first ever preschool field trip to the pumpkin patch!  I was so blessed to be able to go with her and we had a great time!  Mommy even went down the big slide :)

Another tooth bites the dust!

Wynnie lost her second tooth yesterday at Auden's ballet class!  What's awesome is that she didn't swallow it this time so the tooth fairy actually gets to take it with her. :) :)

Six Year Well Visit

SIX.  That sounds so old to me!  Beans had her six year well visit on Tuesday and she is just perfect. :)  Stats below!

Height:  46" - 64th percentile
Weight: 40.8 lbs - 25th percentile
BMI:  13
BMI %: 3

Doc said she is doing just great and right on track developmentally.  I can't believe she grew FOUR inches one year!!    So blessed!

A Year of Firsts....

As I was sitting down to write this post I realized that this year has been full of SO many exciting "firsts"!  Wynn losing her first tooth, getting her ears pierced, first day of kindergarten and now sweet Auden's first day of preschool.  Where has the time gone? 

My littlest little is off to preschool!  It's only 2.5 hours/twice a week but she seems really excited.  I'm so eager to see her blossom and grow this year!  I feel like Wynn learned so much and grew so much during her third year and I'm excited for Auden to do the same.  Don't get me wrong, I love them being little and I ache for them to go back to that most days but at the same time I love seeing them grow and thrive as they get older.  They are sweet, kind and well adjusted girls and I couldn't ask for anything more in life. :) 

Here's my big girl this afternoon right before I dropped her off!

A new adventure has begun!

Wynn started kindergarten today...where did my little baby go?  She did amazing and is super excited to go again.  They have a gentle start schedule at her school so she went for a short time this morning and won't go back until Friday.  Friday she's there longer and will eat lunch there, etc.  we are so blessed to be able to send her to her school and are so looking forward to this big adventure with our girl!  

Big Week for Miss Wynnie!

Last week was a really big week for my Wynnie girl!  On Saturday, July 13, she got her ears pierced!!!  She was SO brave and I was so proud of her.  She shows EVERYONE.  Her favorite is cashiers at the store..."I really love your earrings!  I have earrings too, see?".  So proud :)

and..............................she lost her FIRST tooth!!!!!!!!!!!!!  She has apparently swallowed it but the tooth fairy knew that she lost it and showed up anyways.  One gold de blun and one singing Justin Bieber toothbrush were found in her tooth fairy pillow the next morning and she was SO excited!  I can't believe how fast my gal is growing up.  *sigh*

Happy 3rd Birthday Auden Elisabeth!!

My sweet, tiny peanut of a baby girl turned THREE on Monday!!!  How on earth did she enter "big kid" territory so quickly??  It makes me long for the days when she babbled her first words, sat up for the first time, and clapped at her 6 month appt.  She's growing way too fast. :/ 

We had a super fun birthday party at a local indoor playground!  It was Sesame Street themed and the kids had a really great time.  All Auden cared about was cake and then presents. :)  She even snuck off and stuck her fork in the side of the cake to get a bite when everyone was playing, lol.  That kid has a crazy sweet tooth!

Her actual birthday was spent having French toast with whipped cream and then seeing Monster University with mommy, daddy and Wynnie.  We had a really great day!

Auden,
You are sweet and sassy, funny, kind, sensitive and silly all at the same time.  You are such a sunshine in our lives and I feel SO blessed to be your mama!  I can't imagine our lives without you in it baby girl and I can't wait to watch you grow up!  I love you baby girl!!

Love you forever, like you for always, as long as I'm living my baby you'll be,
Your lucky mama XOXOXO

- You are all about being a "big girl" and fight help a lot of the time, lol

- You are still a mama's girl....and I love it :)

- You can count to 15 but you're still working on your abc's

- You are stubborn, just like your mama, and will ask for something 153 times before we finally give in so you stop asking

Pre K Graduation!!!

Big girl graduated from Pre K about a week ago!  I can't believe she's growing up so quickly :/  Their theme this whole year was Dr. Seuss so they had a really cute "Oh the Places You'll Go" theme for the graduation. 

Moms Day!

Monday was Moms Day at PreK.  We were so blessed that Grandma Mc was in town for the day and could join us!  The kids were so cute!  They each did a book about their mom...Wynn said I was 66, lol!  They also sang a few songs for us and it was precious :) 

Visit from the Chik Fil A cow!

Fire Station field trip!!

Wynn's Pre K class had their annual field trip to the fire station today and I had a great time with my girl! The kids got to climb up in the ambulance and both fire trucks! They (and mommy!) also got to shoot the fire hose...it was SO cool!
