Amanda
So here are the pictures I promised. First we have Friday morning after breakfast in bed and opening presents.... She got a cinderella doll from Grandma Borrowman that Katrina quickly stole and a Nap quilt from Grandma Lang which if you look in the mirror is on her bed and has been since she got it.
Next is her at her Birthday Party everyone dressed up as princesses and she was Cinderella!
here she is blowing out her candles on the b-day cake or at least trying to. We all had to help her after several failed attempts
This is her first day of Preschool. She was so excited she kept doing this everytime we mentioned school.
This was the day before her b-day we took treats to preschool and suprised her with balloons. The teacher and student teachers made her this crown which she wore for several days after

Amanda
I am uploading pictures to the computer so I can share some cute ones from Amandas B-day party and from her first day of Preschool.
Amanda had her first day of Preschool last Tuesday and absolutley loved it. She has been asking every day since Katrina started Kindergarten and was so excited to go to school that she had a hard time sleeping the night before. It was so much different for me to take her to school than it was for me to take Katrina. Although Amanda loves it, she is very shy and quiet and did not want to interact with the teacher and student teachers. She just wanted to be left alone so she could play house with the dollies and other toys. It was fun to hear all about her day when I came back....she gave me a play by play of everthing that she did including what she liked and did not like about her snack and lunch =)
Amanda also had her first birthday party on Friday. She dressed up like Cinderella and all her friends came as little princesses. They had a tea party and went on a scavenger hunt to find all the goodies for their bags, they danced and played put the shoe on Cinderella. Even with all the superb activities =) the favorite was cake and ice cream. One of the little girls blew out the candles for Amanda so we had to relight them and then help her blow them out because she couldn't seem to do it.
All in all it has been a really good week.
Oh did I mention I love having a couple of hours with Katrina and Amanda in school it gives me about an hour with Elizabeth and about 2 hours for just me while she is napping. Ahhh life is good.

Lets think pink!
So with everything in our life girly why not the blog? Steve never looks at this so he will never know the difference, right? Life here is good as I prepare for a marathon of birthdays and birthday parties in a couple of weeks. We will start with Amanda who's birthday is next Friday....that means cupcakes or treats for her preschool class on Thursday a birthday party of Friday a birthday party for her friend on Saturday. Then I have a week to get things in order for Katrina...lucky for me she doesn't want a party this year.....she JUST wants to go to Disneyland and have dinner with Ariel. sheesh. Lucky for us we have passes and so it is really just a matter of dinner and I am sure that will not cost as much as a party =) I still need to check out her schools policy for birthdays....some schools here only allow for treats that are prepackaged from the store, because you know we all want to poison our children and their friends. After we finish with Katrina's we have Steve's on Friday. It seems like we weren't the only ones who have lots of birthdays this time of year....so far this month Katrina and Amanda have been invited to 12 b-day parties from kids in the ward. I need to start my birthday budget now for next year =) so I can keep up. Lots of love to you all.

I was so good at this when I first started blogging, but at least this time it was not a full month between updates. Elizabeth is growing up so fast and is quickly learned that when her sisters are playing in their rooms that it is a fun place to be. They love the reactions that they get from her and are the first ones to greet her in the morning.
These pictures are a frequent sight in the mornings as they race to get her when she wakes up while I am in the shower. ( maybe they wake her up who knows!)
The other night we went to the drive in and saw the game plan it was a fun family outing and the girls loved it. In fact I think we could see just about any movie as long as they got their popcorn and treats.
Here is a random picture of Amanda as she played at her friend Vivians house.
