Can you believe my baby (who we still call baby) is 2?!?!?

Malachi had a 2-year-old-fun birthday! We started the day with presents... and he loved them all, then bacon & toast (which he LOVES) for his birthday breakfast, we played, napped and went to McDonalds for dinner and of course to play!

Malachi adds so much to our home, he is all boy- wrestling, tackling, rough housing, and throwing, he is my little snuggler and still lets me rock him, he is 100% a momma's boy, he copies everything his sister does, he thinks everything is the color blue, he loves balls, trains, trucks, toy cars, balls, running away from mom, his blankey, coloring, nursery, working with dad (playing with tools), cooking, his bear kai kai, being outside, big kids, dogs, being naked, meat, and playing with dangerous things, he hates, most food, getting dressed, and that is all I can think of-- he is my little lover boy!! We absolutely love our little Mac-ee-poo!!

this is how McDonalds started

and this is how it ended... he cried until I let him strip, and I thought it's his birthday, if he wants to be naked at McDonalds I am gonna let him!!

and FREE (or at lease that is how she says it!)

I cannot believe my little Sienna is becoming a little girl! Sienna turned 3 on November 9th and she thought her birthday was so fun she asked if the next day could be her birthday too! I love how easy they are to please at 3! We started the morning with presents and chocolate chip birthday pancakes. After we played for a bit we went to McDonalds playland withGrandma RuAn, Mikey and Aunt Heather. That afternoon we went shopping with Grandma Vawdrey for the perfect present and then went to her house to eat CAKE for dinner! When we got home Sienna's cute little friend Mosiah brought her cupcakes and they played, it was the perfect ending to her day!

Sienna has quite the spunky little personality. She wears about 15 outfits a day from bikinis to princess dresses to knight costumes. She is a tad bit bossy and thinks she is a mom-- everytime I tell her I am the mom she tells me so is she. She loves cake, her baby (Malachi), her purple rain boots, 10 blankets in her bed, books, the chipettes, her friends, cheese, talking to strangers and telling them her name, costco (not sure why), dancing, milk, walking in a store (instead of riding), her best friend Abby, Beyonce's All the Single ladies and her Daddy!! She hates feathers, maskeses (masks), the dark, whispering (oh wait maybe she is just not good at it), being told what to do or wear, and dogs. She is so sweet and tells me 15 times a day that she loves me while stroking my face. She is very protective of her baby and tells everyone he is HER baby! She is very encouraging-- a few Sundays ago her and Malachi walked to the front of our church meeting to listen to the choir, when the choir finished she started clapping and screaming HOORAY so Malachi joined in, it was quite the scene! We love our sweet Sienna and cannot believe we have had her here with us for 3 years!!
