Last week Joshua turned 10 years old!! I’m still working on his Birthday post including pictures, so keep watching for that. In the meantime, I had to share this hilarious picture of Lola, so Overjoyed to be attending his party! Icing on the cheek and a wild woman attitude, I am so in love with my Lolabug. I’ll say it again, we should have used JOY as her middle name.

Lola Loves to Party
July 4, 2011My Angel
May 9, 2011Lola Olivia is our little Angel. I can’t believe how grown up and beautiful she is, sometimes she takes my breath away. At 15 months old she is busy, talkative, spunky, happy (most of the time), and utterly kissable. I’m not sure what I ever did to deserve her, but boy am I grateful that she is ours.
A Date Night with Nan
April 20, 2011
Color her happy! Lola was overjoyed that Nan walked up the hill to pick her up for their “DATE” last night.
We scooted off to Dylan’s play, the boys went over the Crystal and JD’s house…and Lola got into her Royal apple green carriage and was whisked off to the wonderful world of adoring Grandparents. It’s a lovely place where everyone is in awe of each thing you do, and even the sassy stuff seems adorable to them. 
I’m told that they first went on a long walk – 1 hour! Lola must have been in heaven, she adores being outside.
She definitely kept Mom and Dad hopping with her busy little ways. Lola brought her little Amy Butler purse along stocked with fun little treasures like makeup brushes, bracelets and her tiny baby doll. Mom said that she hasn’t slept so deep in her new house as she did last night after watching Lola!! HAHA! I can relate.
You have to admit, they look pretty darn cute together! Thanks Mom and Dad for helping us out last night!

A Throne for Lola
April 6, 2011Yesterday I purchased a little potty for Lolabug. She’s only 15 months old but the girl is showing all the signs of wanting to potty train it out during the day. So my response is – heck yes!!! I’ll let you know how it goes, I probably won’t start until next week as my parents move to Lethbridge happens this weekend and I know it’s going to be busy.
My little girl is shocking me with all she can do and wants to try. It’s thrilling to see how determined she is, and terrifying too. She rushes headfirst into stuff and barrels on in (I think it’s due to having 4 big brothers).
I must admit that this entire experience of her babyhood has been some of the most beautiful days and times of my life. I cherish her emotions and expressions. I love watching her inquisitive nature. I adore seeing her mangle her Dad’s hair with slobbery kisses. She’s such a gift to me. I hope that she won’t be upset in a few years when she realizes that she won’t be getting a baby sister or baby brother. Uggh. I’d
Love to see Lola as a big sister, but alas my mortal clock is way past wound up on that front. Instead she’ll have little cousins and friends babies to adore and “pretend to mother”. That, plus an insane collection of dolls I’m sure!
My Little People

Just look at the darling little people I have in my house. When the big boys are off to work and school, these two little faces keep me company. I’m so blessed!

Flashback Fun with Nana
March 25, 2011I was looking through pictures of Lola around 5 months of age, and just had to share these cute pictures with Lola and her Nana. These shots make me giggle. Lola was so animated and hilarious, and loving that day!!
I’d be remise if I didn’t mention how lucky my little doll is to have two loving sets of Grandparents, they all adore her!! I remember the wonderful and special times I shared with my 3 Grandmothers while growing up, I miss them all tremendously. I felt that I shared a special connection with each of my own Grandmothers for different reasons. It’s a great source of happiness to know that Lola has both my Mom and Nathan’s Mom as models for her life. I know that she is crazy about them and so am I!!
***We definitely need to take more shots with all of our children and their Grandparents. I’m finding that I’m a slacker kind of photographer and need to step up my game a bit.
