What a wild weekend

Olivia's 4th birthday party!

Jackson after his first haircut!






So much has been going on. We have been very busy preparing for all the Holidays. We were lucky and got to go home, West Memphis, for Thanksgiving. The very next weekend we celebrated Olivia's birthday. I cannot believe she is turning 4. I have been very weepy about it. I look at her and think where oh where does the time go. I don't remember the late night fights to get her to sleep through the night or the painful nursing experience. Oh who am I kidding I do remember those things and believe it or not I miss them. I look at Jackson and think...Oh my goodness you are the same age Olivia was when we moved to Columbia. Jackson will be 4 when we leave Columbia. Isn't that wild. Olivia had a blast at her birthday party. She is confused when she ask how old she is and I still say 3. She told me uhhh mom I think your wrong remember I had a birthday party yesterday this morning. She still has no concept of time. Michael and I were blessed with wonderful family who were able to travel up for the party. Our little ballerina was exhausted by then end of it all. She actually took a nap today. Now we have been trying to get her to lay down and stay down for about an hour and a half. But what can I say you win some and you loose some. The other part of my wild weekend was Jackson got his first big boy hair CUT. I was so sad to see his curls go. I have to admit he does look very handsome. I don't even think he noticed at all. I felt extremely blessed this weekend to see all our family and friends. Gods love was shining this weekend. I know that I have vented and cried while blogging before and that is why I wanted to take a minute and just praise the lord for all the blessings He has bestoed upon my family. Have a blessed and happy week.
