matt melissa+june+drake and baby nora

Oh man June had the party of a lifetime! My friend told me a few months back about this place called Mrs. Potts Tea Party here in Mesa so I checked it out and I booked June's party there. She got to pick a princess to come to her party and she originally wanted Jasmine but a week before her party she said she wanted Ariel. She got to choose between the Ariel with a fin or Ariel in her pink dress and of course June chose Ariel in the pink dress. She invited McLaren, Raquel, Morgan, Jayden, and Katie, But Katie was sick the morning of her party so she couldn't come and June was so sad, but then we got to invite Paige. This place was seriously the best thing ever. They provided the food, party favors, cake, a present for June. So the girls got there and Ariel painted their faces, played games with them, they had a little tea party with apple juice, pink Lemonade, peanut butter sandwiches, Ariel read them a story while they ate. Then they sand to her and had cake. Ariel helped her open presents, then they played some more games. those little girls were in heaven! Seriously so cute!!! I would go back every year.

I just can't believe that I have a 4 year old!! June you are my little best friend. I love having you as my daughter and I hope that we are always friends! You are such a good little helper to me and to your brother and sister. Drake bugs you a lot, but you are so good to always, well most of the time, play with him and you enjoy playing with him. He helps you be a little more brave about things! If Drake can do it so can you! You love to hold Nora and you are so good with her. You love to baby talk to her and you love it when she smiles at you. She loves you too. She smiles the best for you! You are going to preschool with Mrs Christy and you love it. There is a little boy in your class named Justin who I think you have a crush on him. You always tell me hows he's cute and he makes you laugh! haha so hilarious to hear you talk about these boys in your class. I guess Noah doesn't listen very well and he gets sent to time out sometimes. You have a little friend Ava in your class that you really like. You always ask me if today is tomorrow or if tomorrow is today. You always want to know what we're doing today and when we're doing it, or if we're doing it tomorrow. You are starting to read. you love to practice your "popcorn" words or sight words. You're little imagination is the best. I love to just sit and listen to you and Drake play and the things you come up with. You love to play with Drakes tools, and your baby alive. you always put your baby alive down for naps. You still would play the ipad all day everyday or watch tv if I let you. You are such a sweet little girl and I hope you always know how much I love you too!!! I can't imagine life without my Junebug!! love you girl!!!

I can't believe my little boy is 2 years old! Drakers you are such a fun sweet little boy. I always tell people how much I love having a boy. You love love love your sisters and are constantly following June around. I don't think there is ever 2 minutes where she can do something and you don't want to be right next to her. You love June but you 2 also fight about EVERYTHING!! Comes with the territory though. You are so good about taking turns after we convince you its the right thing to do. You always say June, Drake, June, Drake. You are obsessed with cars, airplanes, Trains, Hats, Jumping on the tramp, Eating raisins, Eating Oranges, Playing the ipad. Everymorning the first thing you say is show. Want to watch a show. And you throw a major fit if I say no! Which I usually do say no because you end up watching a lot of tv through the day. You still take about a 2 hour nap around 1. You are so good about your naps and sometimes ask to go to bed. At night I try and sing you songs but we usually get through a half of one and you're telling me to leave so you can go to bed. You are quite the little talker. You are talking in sentences and saying pretty much everything. You know all your colors. We're working on the abc's. You're a smart little guy though! When you do something naughty you are so quick to say sowwy momma. It is seriously the cutest thing. You have quite the whine when June takes your toy or does anything to you. Oh that whine hurts my ears and I loose my patience a lot because this happens about 50 times a day, but then when you ask me to snuggle you or hold your little hand I remember that you are just so little still and you won't be my little boy forever so I can get through these whiney days because of those precious moments!! Oh I just love you so much Drake. I always knew I would love my kids, but I love being a mom. I hope you always know how much I love you Drake!
