Sierra's 1st Birthday Party!

Sierra has an excellent birthday celebration. She loved the presents (the paper and ribbon) and had a lot of "help" opening them from her big brother. She didn't get too messy from her cake...only her hair...but that's what it looks like every time she eats anyway, since she is constantly twirling it!

Simon's new bedding...

Happy Birthday SIERRA!

My little baby is 1 today. It seems like yesterday and forever ago that she was born. We went out for dinner to celebrate. And then took the kids to the mall so they could play on the treehouse, ride the carousel, and eat ice cream. We forgot a camera unfortunately, but here is a pic of her opening one of the cards she got in the mail. (we didn't get her any presents (I know, what terrible parents) because we just got so much for Simon's birthday, christmas, and we will get more I am sure at her party saturday)

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2008

Well, Sierra got sick late afternoon New Year's Eve so we cancelled out plans and just ended up staying home! On New Year's Day we went to the Grooters' cottage in Whitehall. We hung out with everyone at the cottage and also had a fun walk/sledding adventure.

PETUNIAS..

I am also working hard at updating Petunias a bit lately. I am making some new items; like belts and aprons. I think I am going to try and sell these items through Etsy. You can view my Etsy shop HERE. I'll be adding new thing frequently in the next few weeks. Thanks for all of you support. And once again my regular Petunias site is HERE!

Are we done partying yet???

We are all feeling better around here. We had so much fun at all of our Christmas Parties. Now we just have to make it through New Year's Eve : )

Simon and Daddy in the snow...

Family Update..

Sierra is cut her second top tooth and is working on two more. She is also saying mama and bye-bye pretty well BUT still working on walking by herself. Our whole family got sick this past Wednesday night. THE FLU! We are starting to feel better but Sierra still isn't eating....which we are getting kind of worried about. Hopefully things will be better soon.

Devries Christmas at the Cottage

Merry Christmas Mommy and Daddy...

I love you SOOOOOOOO much I decided to color my room as a Christmas present for you. I spent a long time coloring as many places as I could reach. I found a dark blue marker in my dresser drawer inside of my baby book. I happily colored every page in the baby book. Then I widened my scope. I am such a good little colorer I made pictures for you one my dresser, each knob on my dresser, humidifier, window pane, window sill, wood around the window, on every wall (I could fit lots of pictures on the walls), sheets, stuffed animals, closet doors, inside my closet on the walls and the plastic rubbermaid bins, bedroom door, bedroom doorknob, most of the outlets, phone jack, and my laundry basket. Your Welcome! (We can laugh now because mommy scrubbed for about an hour with a Magic Eraser and got all the marker off) A true Christmas Miracle! (P.S. if you have kiddos you might want to invest in a few magic erasers, they really do clean everything)

The EXTENDED Grooters Family Party...
