A Sweet Week
It's not very often, we get to start and end a week on such a sweet note, but last week was just extra special!
The Sunday before Valentine's Day, our good friend Katie-Ruth held a special Valentine's party for her friends. The little ones enjoyed fun crafts and lots of yummy sweets!
Don't let Kathryn fool you. She may look intent on placing stickers on her Valentine's in this picture....

...but I think, decorating her own cupcake was her most favorite part!

I know it was Walker's favorite! In case you can't translate that face, it's "hurry up and take the picture, so I can eat please!!!!"

We ended the week at a birthday party for the sweetest little one year old you ever did see--Addison (aka Addi Girl). Aunt Mak completely out did herself. My pictures won't even do it justice, so you'll just have to keep checking her blog as I'm sure there's a party post in the making. I did manage a few snapshots of the festivities....


And the sweetest part of the whole week...The Birthday Girl!

Celebrate Good Times
Last Friday, Walker and Kathryn celebrated "100 Days of School" with a shoe box float parade.
We completed their floats several weeks ago (leaving way too much time for the kids to play with them and show them to anyone who stepped foot in our house), so I was just glad to get the floats to school in one piece. Never mind that I was hot gluing stickers and beads as we were walking out the door that morning!
There was music, candy, and lots of smiles!


On Saturday, we managed to make it to a "real" parade. Here's Walker patiently waiting for it to start.
And the parade is off!
Lots of beads, moon pies, candy, a black cat, and a Care Bear (Yes, I said Care Bear. I guess that goes to show you can catch anything at a Mardi Gras parade) later, the kids deemed the parade a success!

My Funny Valentines + An Anniversary
You don't even want to know how hard I had to try to get this photo. I guess in hind sight it was worth it. They are pretty cute if I do say so myself!

Oh, and I almost forgot...Can you believe ye ole' Busbee Buzz has been up and running for three years now! WOW! I know I always say, "time sure flies", but TIME.SURE.FLIES.
Check out this post to see how it all started!

Stick a Fork in Me...
...I'm done!
Sorry if the title's a bit crude, but that's how I'm feelin' today. It's been a busy week, and I mean B.U.S.Y.
I'm sure many of you know about these types of weeks, but quite frankly we keep a pretty slow schedule around our house. And I have to say I like it that way!
Judging by these pictures of Frances I took earlier this week, I think she might feel the same way...

Yes, my friends, she's asleep. Standing up. Like I said this isn't our norm, and I'm quite ready to get back to our lazy (although crazy) days.
On another note, THANK YOU for all of the comments regarding the ABC prints for Frances' room. The cards were all so cute, I wasn't surprised so many of you left a response. Just doesn't happen all that often, and it quite made my week!!!
This is the space where I'm thinking of hanging them, although I'm not sure if I'll keep them hanging as shown here (those are the twins' Eric Carle flashcards that are up there now) or if I'll frame them.
The winner is #3! The teacups sold me especially since the fabrics and colors in Frances' room are gender neutral thanks to her brother and sister who had all of this stuff before her. I just thought the teacups with the cute little animals was so feminine, and the pefect addition to her room!
And on another completely different note, here's a random picture I came across when I uploaded the other photos. Our friend Caroline from across the street came over on Saturday, and she snagged this picture with my camera. I only include it in this post in an effort to keep things real, and because this is how I normally look. Well, besides the no make up/fleece and yoga pants look, I'm mostly referring to having a baby on my hip, and I love every minute of it!

A Few Favorites
I FINALLY got all of the clothes laid out for tomorrow's Alice Kathleen & Company Trunk Show, and I just had to share some of my, I mean, our favorites!
Kathryn's favorite...
My absolute favorite...
And the boy version of it...
I think I've already posted this picture, but I am in love with the dress on the right--The "Daisy." And the little shorts set to the left is even cuter in person!
Who could pass up this little chick (there's a guy version of it too!)...
And I love how sweet and simple this little shorts set is. You could even add a monogram to it!
Don't forget to join me this week to see all of these adorable clothes in person and to place an order for your sweet little guys and gals.
