Cadence is the big 1!

I can't believe Cadence is already a year old. It's gone by so fast..faster than Keira's first birthday came and went. We celebrated her birthday by grilling out steaks, potatoes and mac&cheese with our neighbor friend Chris who just "happened" to stop by while we were grilling out. We ate dinner inside, then let Cadence dig into her cake. It was a 4 inch blue cake with green around the bottom of it to look like grass. Then there were different colored flowers all over it with ladybugs also. And there was a huge yellow flower on top with a ladybug on it. You know..cuz she's our Cadybug! I'm so creative I know. Well, I didn't bake the cake, but I came up with the idea of it and had Walmart make it. haha
We then let Cadence open up her presents which turned into Keira opening them all for her while Cadence played with the toys she got and threw the clothes behind her. She's so cute. Keira and Cady play together so well. I love watching them talk and play with each other. They now also sleep in the same room together. Finally! I can get some sleep after sleeping with babies since August 2005! (which was when I got pregnant with Keira...). Keira slept in our bed/in her crib next to our bed until I was about 6 months pregnant. Then of course, Cadence came and I had another baby to sleep in bed with or be woken up by at all hours of the night in her crib. For the most part though, Cadence did well at sleeping in her own crib. Keira was the complete opposite however. That girl refused to sleep in the crib most nights.
Anyway, I'm just rambling on about random things because it's 1:30am on a Friday night, and I should be in bed. Wow. If you told me 4 years ago that I said that, I'd laugh in your face and say, "yeah right! Me!? Go to bed at 1:30am on a Friday night? You must be joking! I will be out with my friends until 3:30am and then off to IHOP for a 4:00am breakfast eating a smiley face pancake with sausage, bacon and chocolate milk and I'll be 110 lbs forever!"

Ok...seriously...before I say anything else ridiculous..yet true..I am going to bed! Goodnight!
