Let's see. We had Girlie's 4th birthday party on the 10th. It was soooooo much fun. A luau at a hotel pool was PERFECT! She loved it, her friends loved it - it was a blast!
Here are a few pics from that.

Swimming with friends
Decorations
The cake & favors (crab cookies & magnets)
I slaved for HOURS on the cake, but it turned out. Girlie's one request was that it had a crab cookie :)
It was a blast and she racked up on the presents!
Also since I last updated Girlie had her first sleepover with a NON-family member. She spent the night with her friend Ava (in the swimming picture above -right side). She did so great and stayed all night long and had such a blast. She's still talking about it and is ADAMANT that the small travel sized toothpaste she has is ONLY for going to Ava's house lol
In other news James' job cut back to working only 4 days a week, so only 32 hours. :( I hate it. The economy is terrible right now and although we've applied for a few things we've heard NOTHING! :( So right now he's stuck working there with less pay. What can you do? I hate where we are as a nation right now, I sure hope it turns around.
Also, on Monday we found out that she might have something wrong with her right eye. The short story is that she failed the vision test on her right eye at her 4 year well checkup. We are seeing a specialist on 2/2. So we shall see. I was very freaked at first. That's my baby and her vision but I know God has already taken care of the issue. He's in control - always and she'll be fine. The Pedi mentioned a cataract (her eye looked a little cloudy/white to her) so we shall see. Any prayers you can offer up would be greatly appreciated!
Otherwise we're all just hanging in there. Doing the daily grind. It's FREEZING here in Nashville so we are definitely looking forward to warmer weather and swimming lessons, which we just got confirmed today! :)
Happy Wednesday all!

Syd's birthday party turned out adorable!! I love the pineapple centerpieces. Andrew would've loved the favors - krabby patties are his favorite, lol.
You did a GREAT job on the cake!!
And I already talked to you about James' job and Syd's eye & you know I really hate it for you guys! You are so right though, God already has a plan and things happen for a reason. Things will work themselves out. Whenever you don't feel so good about it though, you know where to find me. I am all ears whenever you need me! :)
Bring on the warm weather!!
