Happy Birthday Andy . . . I mean Analina And-da-dee!




When I read the directions for the cake to them I said that while it bakes they must be very still and very quiet to make it taste perfect. That actually listened.


The birthday cat, Analina And-da-dee.






Each girl had balloons tide to their wrists. No sneaking around with balloons following you everywhere.

It has been Andy's birthday everyday for the last week. Sunday I finally decided that it was time for Andy to have a party. Reesi and I worked on initiations and hand delivered them to Grace and Lyla. The party was set for Wednesday, but Reesi couldn't wait so we had it today. I tried to tell her that we didn't have any decorations yet, but she just taped up her handmade pictures to all the windows and doors to take care of that problem.

Reesi, Grace, and Lyla all worked together to make Andy's cake. I realized the only oil I had was olive oil so we used that and the cake was still delicious.

Meemaw heard about the celebration and she is always up for a party. She showed up with a helium tank and balloons.

When we finally got the balloons ready and the matches in the cake(out of candles) Andy was MIA. Instead of actually look for him Reesi grabbed stand-in cat and said, "Andy is at her Grandma's. I made a mistake. It is Analina And-da-dee's birthday today." Uh-0h. Does this mean I have to have another birthday for Andy?

Thanks for checking out my blog Joni! Your Reesi is precious and getting so big! I'm glad ya'll are so close to Jenny & the girls now. They are going to have the best memories from these times. And they will be so close when they are older. Take care!
