Baby Addison's shower

I was so happy to see my cousins Liz & Mindy when they came back to Ohio for Liz's baby shower. I do miss them and wish we were closer. Their girls are absolutely adorable! We went to a baby shower for miss Addison, who is so precious. I could of just taken her with me:) Something about her reminds me so much of Ethan when he was a baby, probably because Ethan resembles the Gribben side more. Who knows, but she was so sweet!
My girls get a little excited about parties and showers, any event that they can get dressed up for. So they loved that I found dresses that were alike for them to wear.
Here is Liz & Addison with Grandma Witt The girls bellied up to the bar and started chowing.Look at that face! Those cheeks! I could just smother them with kisses!What a happy little girl.I didn't want to give her back to mommyNatalie was loving on her cousin miss Lilly. They are such cuties! It was good to see them and hopefully someday soon we will get out to AZ to see them.

Easter 2009

Star Student

Miss Elena has not so patiently waited for the whole school year to get her chance at being star student. Each week of the school year a child is picked and during that week they get important jobs and get to share some of their favorite things, bring in a show and tell and a snack for the class. Weeks passed and every week Elena would come home and say "so and so is star student this week." It got to the point that she was waking up in the middle of the night, sit up look at me and say " I think next week the letter of the week is E and I will be star student!" (She figured out that her teacher was matching up letter of the week with the students first initial) So I broke down and talked to her teacher. I told her I am not the kind of parent who says "Hey why isn't my kid being picked, but hey when is she going to get her turn? she's going crazy!: So her moment finally came,YAY! She brought her webkins in for show and tell and we looked on websites for a fun snack to make. We found these mini caramel apples on Family Fun

They were a little tricky to make, but they were good and we will for sure make them again.
