BIRTHDAYS GALORE!!!!

All of my babies (Evan, Madi and Brady, and John James)have birthdays within a matter of a month.  So needless to say from August 23rd until September 15th I was a busy (and poor) NeNe (that is what they all call me).  I have told all of their mommas that they have to check with me before any parties can be officially scheduled.  I never want to have to choose which birthday party to go to.  Evan is pretty safe because his birthday fall about 2 weeks before the others, but John James and Madi/Brady’s birthday is exactly one week apart.

The first birthday bash began on August 23rd, Evan’s 1st birthday!!!  It was such a special day and I am so glad that I got to share the day with him and his family.

Happy Birthday, Evan!!!

The next birthday party was for Madi and Brady. On September 8, they turned 5.  I can’t believe that they are that old.  It seems like yesterday that we were at the hospital waiting for them to be born.  They had their party the weekend after their birthday at the church and it was great!  It was very low key and it was wonderful being able to visit with family and friends.

Happy Birthday, Madi and

Brady!!!

The last celebration was John James’ party. On September 15, John James turned 7. It just doesn’t seem real. We had a family birthday party at his house and Carey grilled burgers.  Love me some Carey Butler hamburgers.  No one makes them as good as he does.  Anyway, we had a great time and John James had a great birthday.

As you can see, I am so blessed to have so many special children in my life.  I love them all very much and I am so grateful that I have wonderful friends and families who will share their children with me.
