Natalee turns 9!!

Miss Natalee started off her birthday preparations with a morning at the orthodontist.


Since she had chosen a St. Patrick's Day theme for her party, she had to add the finishing touch of GREEN rubber bands on her braces... 


 I think it turned out pretty cute!!


 Her party was the day after St. Patricks day... so a rainbow & green shamrock theme took over the kitchen! We found clearance Old Navy St. Patty's day t-shirts to sweeten the theme... and a dear friend made St. Patty's day hair clips!

Throw in a few gold coins, some Lucky Charms cereal & some shamrocks... and you've the the makings of a GREEN tea party!  Nonnie let us use her precious tea cups and saucers that we are treasure from Grandma Westbrook!


Maga arrived to sweeten the deal with darling rainbow cupcakes. They just made the decor too cute!



 A few friends & we were ready to party!!

My little artist girl: 


 She requested jewelry and accessories and all things girly... and that's what she got!

SURPRISE inside the green cake! Rainbow!!



My beautiful girls... they make my heart so full... I am SO LUCKY to be their momma!

Natalee Grace.... you fill our lives with joy, sweet girl.  We love your sweet disposition and heart of kindness. God blessed us the day He gave us YOU! Happy 9th birthday sweet girl!

ooops!

I just realized that those "8 Month" pics I posted a few days ago weren't the 8 month pix.  They were more like one day shy of 7 month pictures... and THESE are the 8 month pictures! ha. o well... not much difference.  My editing was terrible in the 7 month pix - these are unedited, and probably for the best since it's not my strong suite! ha! (isn't this outfit from Nonnie ADORABLE!?) Love, love, love this one:    This is a typical face.  If he's not sucking in his lip, he's spitting and soaking his shirt with drool! (sorry so blurry - just had to remember this face!)
