Guess Who's Two?

Maddux! The funny thing about Maddux's birthday is that I actually didn't realize it was her birthday until my co-worker reminded me that the puppy's were turning two (he has Maddux's sister Stella). I had to laugh at myself and then run out to get a couple of gifts and a birthday treat. Maddux definitely has her own unique personality and knows how to entertain us. I love my little pup and the time we get to spend together with Jim working out of town during the week.

This is it...my treat last year was bigger!

You are never too young to have shoe collection...


Elsie is only seven weeks old and already has a shoe collection to envy...15 pairs to be exact! A couple of weeks ago Jen and Matt came down with Elise and Elijah for Elsie's San Diego debut. In their honor, my mom and I planned a shoe themed "Sprinkle", a baby shower for the second child, so all of our friends could finally get to meet the new 'lil princess. Elsie sure is loved already by everyone...and so is Elijah!



After the "sprinkle" Jim and I stayed down at my parents for the weekend so that we could spend time with the family. I was spoiled to get to spend two weekends in a row with Jen, Matt and the kids. Once again it made me wish I lived closer so that we could see them all of the time. But since we don't, the next best thing is to hang out with them as much as we can when they are down.

I am looking forward to watching both Elise and Elijah grow up and helping Elsie to follow in her auntie's foot-steps when it comes to shoes! She is already going to be one trendy little girl with great shoe fashion...I think I'll some competition!
