Happy 6th Birthday!
Cannon turned 6 yrs old this month. His actual birthday was Sat. April 11th. We had lots of surprises. 1st Papa Steve and Grandma Tammy flew in the night before so Cannon was so excited and wanted to stay up late and show them all of his things. Karlee wouldn't let them get far either. She begged them to hold her, and she kept kissing Papa Steve saying "YUMMM, Delicious kisses." (yeah, we need to work on that!)

Saturday for Cannon's birthday he requested red waffles and bacon. We played in the morning and partied in the afternoon and evening. For his birthday we had an Easter egg hunt and a pinata, a Venom cake and ice cream. After all of his friends left he asked Papa Steve to take him to Famous Dave's so he could eat ribs.
( I think I gained 5 lbs just in one day)
Sunday was Easter and the kids had another egg hunt. The kids were so excited to play with Grandma Tammy and Papa Steve they didn't have time to sleep much. We played at the park, went to the Henry Ford Museum, built forts and shopped.

Cannon didn't ever seem to run out of energy.

Poor Karlee couldn't keep up.


Thanks for the great time Grandma Tammy and Papa Steve! We can't wait to see you in May!

About a month ago I had a surprise baby shower scheduled for Skye, but baby Aliza decided that was the day she was ready to be born. So on Thursday we had the shower. (Skye's actual due date). It was a lot of fun seeing Aliza and all of her new things. Skye will have fun with all of the "PINK" she now has for her baby girl.
Karlee had lots of fun this week and started it out by deciding to cut her own hair. She was a good girl and came downstairs and told me " I threw it in the garbage." That's when I looked at her and it dawned on me ........."what she threw in the garbage." I took her upstairs to tell her how naughty it was and she had to go in time out while I hid the scissors AGAIN. I couldn't help but laugh because after a while when the sobbing faded she said "Mommy, I a naughty grill."
The next day I attempted to fix her bangs the best I could. She has lots more bangs now, and it doesn't look as bad.
