Juliana got a sucker!



This past saturday Kinsley announced that we were going to have a family party that evening. She devoted her entire day to preparing for the party. I think she gets that from me. She prepared the menu (halloween candy, popcorn and bottled water), came up with games for us to play and decorated the living room. I had to laugh at some of things she came up with, including "tell your deepest darkest secret" to which hers was that she still has a crush on a boy that she used to go to preschool with.


The highlight of the evening, other than just spending time with all three girls was Juliana's first sucker. Now, my friend Brandi can attest to the fact the poor baby never gets anything good. After having one baby who suffered miserably from acid reflux, I tend to limit her diet to things I know won't upset her tummy. I nearly fainted when Brandi gave her tiny taste of icing at Kinsley's birthday party. So this was a stretch, but I couldn't help it. She was sitting at Kinsley's party table with us munching on her cheerios while the rest of us chowed down on junk. So... momma caved and gave Juliana a cherry dum dum sucker. She LOVED it! In fact, she got mad when I took it away after only a few licks. Kinsley kept stealing it from my plate and giving it to Jules, and she would scream every time I took it away.

See... I know my momma is all dissappointed that I didn't have a house full of boys, and I know she says that boys are so much easier because they aren't as emotional as girls.... I have to tell you tho, we have SO much more fun!!! *sigh* we really do have some good lives despite all the things that happen in between. :o) Love you! That picture of Jules is wonderful.... you guys are all so beautiful!

@ BJ - Yes, we have so much more fun with a house full of girls. I wouldn't trade our lives for anything in the world. Thank you for being right beside me as we experience all the adventures that raising three girls has to offer!
