THE Bitty Baby

Mouse in the House
Minnie Mouse that is! We had SadieJane's Minnie Mouse Party last night at our house. Phew, house parties are supposed to be cheaper and easier but the immediately after I always have a Bday Hangover. Ugh. I have trouble remembering details and I feel a little icky. But then I get my pictures out and it all comes back and I feel better:) We had a great time at SayJ's party. We had so much fun with new and old friends. This year SayJ got to even invite a few friends from her class at school too, so that was fun for her to actually have her friends here not just ours.
I will say SadieJane is still such a blessing. She is so much fun and so smart (in her own way:)). She has finally started putting two words together but no more than that. She can count and sing and girl can laugh. When she was first born I loved her so much but again it is crazy how your love for your babies just grow and grow. Thankful that Jesus gives us this picture of who He is through our children. SadieJane is still my little sidekick and a Momma's girl to the core. I still don't mind it. It can get out of hand but school has definitely helped us keep it in check. At this age Micah started identifying more with Mick and separating from me, which was good for him. But I'll admit it is fun to have a girl that we get to continue to build that Momma-daughter bond that is so special, the way the Daddy-son one is. SadieJane is all girl with pink and dolls, but she is also tough as nails when she gets hurt or if she sets her sights on something challenging you don't tell her she "can't" because she'll prove you wrong. Hope these traits continue. Now, all that is good but she also has quite the fitpitching ability that I hope does not continue. She loves Minnie Mouse and all things Mickey. She loves rocking her baby dolls and playing with her Bubba (if he'll let her). She loves making crafts and coloring. Best of all she loves her family and I couldn't be more thankful!

Day O' SayJ!
Yesterday our sweet little girl turned TWO! I can not believe it. We had a great day! She has school and while she thought it was a cruel joke that I send her to school on her birthday (lots of tears)...she got to have cupcakes with her friends and I got to see her in her little classroom. After school we went to buildabear. Thank you coupons! SadieJane made a bear and a bunny. We had lunch and then naps. While Bubba was at choir SayJ and I went to ChuckECheese by ourselves. It was awesome. We finished up with dinner at Longhorns! It was a great day for her and I am so proud. And on a day when I am not sleep deprived I will hopefully go over a little more about her at this age. Love my sweet SadieJaner and can't wait to celebrate with her at her party!!

The First of Many??
Micah has been loving some school, church, choir, teamkid, and Momma working time. All of these just so happen to be held at our very own "six flags over Jesus" aka 1st Baptist church. We are starting to be those "everytime the door is open people". All this to say, Micah sometimes isn't sure which class he should go in, but he doesn't really care. He likes them ALL. Crazy to think you go to a place because your four year old loves it, I mean we like it, but he loves it. Ok, yeah, back to where I was. You can see why I haven't posted lately, TOO TOO much on the brain. Ugh. So in the last two weeks I've had the following stories told to me about my sweet bird:
~ While Micah does choir and church on Wednesday nights SayJ and I work in the penguin class. While I was in there another Mom comes in and says your son is quite the stud. He was just walking around the playground holding hands with a blonde and a brunette.
~ A mom from Micah's class says that her daughter is praying for Micah at night. That she "wont give up on him, and will keep praying he stops being so rough and boyish". I said, me too, girlfriend, me too! Love that!
~ While at a party another mom informs me that her daughter thinks Micah is so cute "with his glasses" and since they both were recently upset in choir, she said he came and checked on her the next week in class.
~ Another little girl from his turtle class saw me at the mall. She wanted to come tell Micah hello and again made mention of how cute he was "with the glasses".
~Lastly, the pictures you see above were made in teamkid at church. Each child made his/her own, but one girl insisted on giving Micah HER picture. Her mom tried to take it home and she insisted it go home with him. He made little mention of what I thought was a pretty big deal. I will also make mention this same sweet girl saw us coming into Sunday School on sunday and came to the door to make sure she said hey to my bird. By the way, I could do a whole post on the differences of those two pictures. I mean Tyla's is so detailed and pretty and then there is Micah's...slap some stuff on here so I can go play.
Now while I hope you know this isn't a aww, my son is so great post or a I'm trying to push the boy girl thing. I know it is all very innocent and that he has very little idea about the differences with girls, I just think that it is funny how much girl interest we are getting. But possibly because Micah has a very sensitive Momma so he picks up on that with the ladies....hahaha.
Oh, and last thing to note, the ladies LOVE the glasses.
Ok, ok, all of this is totally in fun. So that one day I can read this to Micah and embarrass him. Who knows, maybe he and Tyla will work things out in the Waaaaay future! I know he is not a complete stud. I know he isn't the handsomest thing in the world. Frankly I don't even want him to be:) If you ask him, he isn't getting married and he is living with his Momma til he is 35. Now, that my friend is every girls dream.

Party of EIGHT!
My best friend from birth delivered her second baby boy on Wednesday, Sept. 21st. Parker Brentley weighed in at 7lbs 3ounces and was such the sweet boy. Amy sported a double doozy by going into labor and THEN having a planned c-section. She knows how to have fun! We have gone from being a party of eight back in the day when both our families would go somewhere when we were children, to the two of us, then came marriage and there were four, then we had our firsts and there were six and on and on til now we are back to that party of EIGHT in another generation!!(we can't even get both generations at one table now:) hee hee.) Love it!
