PIZZA ITALIANO!


Now I'm not trying to highlight my newfound talent...but why not. Aren't sisters supposed to be competitive?

humm, maybe it was the cameras fault for not catching her dough in the air...or not :)

Pizza pie flyin' high

I'm not one to point out flaws but is that a hole I see?

We topped off our night with games & treats, it's always a party when Aunt Piggers is in town!

ELIZA'S BIG DAY!

SO LUCKY TO HAVE HER AUNT PIGGERS WHO CAPTURED THE MOMENTS


Daddy's little girl is growing up




She told me she now feels different from Summer & Tessa. We had such a happy day celebrating her special day.

A sweet visit from

grandma AND grandpa bowen

they usually have to travel one at a time

They packed in a full week of museums & sights (it wiped them out but it was worth the work!)

Lots of sweet love was received, especially for this little chubby one

Where's grandpa?

Look at what we're doing right now...

just a sneak peek

PLAYING CATCH UP!

Here's a story of a lovely sister who brought a daughter of her very own...to serve her sister in a time of need. Tammy is very dedicated to 'new mom recovery' She wouldn't let me lift a finger all week, she would have even forbid me to take a shower but my hair got a little (okay, very) greasy & so she gave in.

Aunt Bam Bam carried her newest nephew in this front pack while she made a peach pie & her shoulders felt it for a whole week after :)

Then came my Momma & she insisted on scratching my back every night, what more can I say

Next came Laura & this picture reveals why our little Thomas must be held constantly...

can you blame him?

Laura also brought her youngest gift, Mia. The girls were entertained non-stop

Jody played it smart & waited...& waited some more until she knew I was ready to play (but really she just put me to work & made me paint & rearrange bedrooms) Oh by the way, please read the fine print...TODAY IS HER BIRTHDAY & SHE WANTS EVERYONE TO KNOW SHE'S 38!

Ashlin tried to convince her Mom to have another baby so Tammy said if you can hold Thomas all day, I will have another baby. She lasted 28 minutes & then got a dead arm. She tried.

Don't tell my kids...but now you see...why I love to bring babies into this world!
