Yuliya turns 3 Very Hungry Caterpillar

We love the book the very hungry caterpillar, so this year we did that type of a party :) We had a blast. For some strange reason we have had an extreme cold front come in, from 76 to the 40's! We  had to put our fruit stamp paintings and thumbprint caterpillars and do inside activities. Have no fear though, chasing balloons is always a hit, even for adults :)

All the food from the book, with holes "eaten" through the  middle

Caterpillar cake!

Caterpillar pipe cleaner strung through felt fruit(heather and I had the tedious task of cutting tiny apples, pears,  oranges and plums)

Hey! We shared a womb! ....well not all of us... but you get the idea

Yuliya's bracelet

Even the teenagers made bracelets

Yuliya playing patty cake with Julian and Cash I think...or protecting him

Thank you for attending, playing and birthday gifts and wishes :)

Azaleas in bloom

Yuliya's birthday flowers here on her exact birthday :) 3rd year in a row. Every year, they bloom on her birthday and then fall off within 10 days, and don't return again until the following March.

Cypress Pictures

 

creepy huh?

These are the best attempts of getting 5 kids to look at once and smile

 This is what three siblings looks like

Trying to take advantage of Grandmami being in the states and take a few updated pictures. Yuliya and Kaitlyn weren't in the greatest of moods the entire time. Funny how that works.

Movies

Today was Yuliya's first trip to the movies with Amie and Aiden, she did pretty well.  She didn't start to get antsy until almost the very end. I am surprised it took her that long, the movie was in 3d and she refused to wear the glasses! We saw How to Train Your Dragon, which we all agreed was a fantastic movie.

Happy St Patty's!

 This is the fun part of being a momma...Sorry Cash, I am going to take advantage of the fact that you can't pick your wardrobe yet.

 MmMMM...Los Cucos green sauce.....just kidding! That's my kid, she's super cute.

Yeehaw!

 

Sorry guys, it's my blog that means I get to post all the  silly pics I want :P

 That's me

 

this is my better side

 Kaitlyn the character

 I love the lady's yawn in the background

We went to the rodeo with Grandmami, Amy, Kaitlyn, Yuliya, Cash, Chris and myself, it was....interesting. We had a lot of fun I love the silly looks kids give animals and how happy Cash is to just be pushed around in his stroller and look at the  lights overhead (whatever your view is laying down in a stroller) Kaitlyn is such a ham, I love the sequence above of her being a little comedian, and Yuliya being completely indifferent. ha!
