PAUL is '1/4 of a century' old!!!

Happy 25th Birthday Paul!

It was exciting to celebrate Paul twice this week, first with Father's Day, 

and then his b-day on the 21st of June! 

 Banana Pancakes for breakfast!

 (Yes, i can cook!)

 Paul with his gifts!  :)

 Shirts, 2 pairs of shorts, Addidas shoes, & more!

Then we went out to eat- what an adorable couple of 25 yr. olds we are!  :)

DELICIOUS FOOD!  :)

 We love Joe's Farm Grill!!!!
We ate there for Paul's birthday dinner, Yum!

And now on a side note- Brightlie is growing taller & her hair

is getting longer!  She is cute and goofy as can be, but she certainly is getting into

her "terrible twos".  She is working on listening and obeying mom & dad, and

gets quiet time in her room if she throws a fit.  

She has also transitioned to one nap per day, and her bedtime is now earlier, @ 8pm.

She is a chatter box and is learning new words and talking all the time(even though sometimes we can't understand her).  Lastly, she likes to help around the house a lot which is nice for mommy, 

and B tries to dress herself and takes her own diaper off when she needs to be changed. 

She loves for daddy to read to her, even though she is going thru a clingy phase right now

where she mostly just wants mom (which i enjoy)!

We love our happy but crazy, energetic & independent, goofy little princess!

(Oh, and our princess always looks adorable when she goes to church!

She loves nursery and is such a good girl in her class!)
