Well, I figured with Halloween and new baby coming I better get Bay's birthday posted, since I like things done chronologically. Bay turned 5 in August and instead of doing a birthday party at our house this year we told Bailey she could choose a couple friends and we could go to the family fun center, which is one of Bay's favorite places to go! It was perfect! The kids had a really fun time and it was fun to watch them together.
Here is SWBy, Ford, Lauren and Bay.
We first bowled a couple of games which was fun but I think 1 game would have been sufficient. Half way through the 2nd game the kids were pretty much done, which was great for SWBy because he got to have 4 turns. SWBy LOVED bowling!!!
The following day we had a family birthday party for Bailey and Spencer's sister and her family came down to our house to celebrate with us. Bay decided she wanted a large cookie instead of a cake this year. That worked out great for me, the cookie was much easier to make!
Bay and her cousin Talmage getting ready to open her presents.

Here Bay is playing mother to SWBy. They are so cute. If SWBy is in trouble or can't find me he'll seek comfort from Bailey. I'm not sure what I was doing but in the above picture I found SWBy laying on Bay's lap and she was just scratching his back for him.
Bailey, our drama queen, has allergies we found out this year and in the above picture apparently her eyes were hurting and she told us she needed ice on them. She fell asleep like this.
We signed Bay up for soccer this year and she seems to be enjoying it. She either loves it or is indifferent to it. She is just like me, very timid at sports. We're proud of her, she tries. I'm hoping she'll become more aggressive. Her last game I bribed her with donuts. I told her that if she kicked the ball, we could go get donuts. It worked. She played a little more aggressive and had more contact with the ball!
Bay loves throwing the ball back in after it's been kicked out of bounds!
SWBy is already a little soccer star! He wants to play so badly. I'm surprised how coordinated he is already.
The stairs are one of our favorite places to sit in our house and the kids love to lay on them as well.
Poor SWBy fell off the roof of his little toy car and landed face first on the concrete. I couldn't even look at him at first, luckily Spencer was home to clean him up. I struggle with all things bloody!

My rocking, recliner is also a favorite place to sit. SWBy loves it!!! He gets so mad when I move him! Here he set up his bed in my chair!
