Princess Raincloud

A few months ago, as we sat in the Disneyland parking lot, the kids were discussing nicknames and wanted to pick their own.  After a lot of thought, Parker decided to stick with Pbo, and Bailey instantly announced that she would be Flower Einstein.  About five minutes later, however, Bailey dramatically announced that she did NOT want to be Flower Einstein.  Instead, she should be addressed as none other than Princess Raincloud.  This decision has been unwavering.

And so it is, on this 10th day of January, 2011, that I would like to send  kingdom-wide 3rd birthday greetings to my one and only Princess Raincloud Boles.  Thank you, sweet Bailey, for bringing an unexpected explosion of pink, sparkles, and giggles into our home.  I love you times infinity.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Lyla

In my book, any baby who is throwing out winks in week one is a winner.;)

Meet sweet Lyla Bell, the newest addition to one of my most favorite families, the Aldersons.

I’m telling you…she’s a winky gal!

…and completely precious in every way.

My, baby Lyla, what big eyes you have!

Could they be any more proud?  Any more ADORABLE?

Lisha, amazing mother of four, you are simply radiant.

(Am I right, folks?!)

Love.

Skeet, Lisha, Jack, Caden, Claire, and Lyla…I could just gush about your family all day long.

I love you guys and the GOOD thing you all have going together.

Hugs and high-fives all around.  Hope to see you again soon!

That is a seriously adorable family! I love the wide eyed photo and the ones with the rest of the family!

Awww…the newborn shots get me every time! We really need to get together soon! I need some updated family pics.

I’d love to find a time in the spring where all of us can get together and do a family photo. We have 5 more beautiful grandchildren. Your photos and Skeet and Lisha with their beautiful children are inspiring.

Skeet and Lisha, You have a beautiful family!!! God has
truly blessed you. Lindsey Wood

[...] Sweet baby Lyla has rounded out this family of six just perfectly. [...]

Party Girl

In five days, Bailey will be 3 years old.  We will have difficultly transitioning from the rapid-fire “two-and-three-quarters” response that she is so used to spitting out whenever she is asked her age…but I’m sure she’ll manage.  She’s a fast learner.

Although I hadn’t planned on a formal birthday party, I decided to throw together a last-minute little McBirthday celebration with a few of Bailey’s favorite buddies.  The meals were Happy, the cake sprouted from the waist of a Barbie, and I think a good time was had by all.

Chocolate milk cheers to you, my little sweetness.

What a crew!

Derek the Ladies’ Man

What’s up, ladies?

The candle stabbed through Barbie’s hip region was Bailey’s doing.  I voted for sticking it in her ponytail.  Birthday girl wins.

What a great Princess Party! I loved being with the “girls”!

I didn’t know our girls were SO close in age! Brookie turns 3 on the 20th! Yours, however, is blessed with way more hair than mine…happy birthday Bailey!
