the Pumpkin Patch with friends!

This morning, Leila and I had a great Pumpkin Patch playdate with our friends April and Ty, and Erica, Sean and Aiden. The kids all had a blast, and especially loved running through the maze. We were joking that we should have taken before and after pictures, because the kids ended up so dusty!


We all came home with pumpkins, and had a great time!

She's famous...kind of ; )

A few weeks ago we went to Baby Darrian's first birthday party, thrown by my fabulously talented friend, Michelle. The party was circus-themed and hand's down the cutest party I have ever been to! Michelle used all sorts of creative touches, and the party was featured on one of my favorite websites, Hostess With The Mostess which is where I've gotten many great ideas!

A cluster of pictures, with four children is on the blog, and Leila is in it! You can check out the rest of the story and lots of party pictures here. Great job, Michelle!

My sweet girl

Leila's (current) favorite song is the Sesame Street "Sing a Song" She loves to say "Sing, Mama!" and she says it in a sing-songy tone. She's been putting together a lot of two and three word sentences lately and today she sang to me "Sing happy, mama!" (as in the line "Sing of happy, not sad...") I started singing her song, and when it got to the "lalalalalala" part she started singing along.

It was very sweet!

Here's *SUPER* old-school version of the song so you know what I'm talking about, if you didn't already:
