Birthdays

Meliah and MaKenna always plan something together for their birthdays because their birthday's are only one day apart. They had a sleepover together and a big Warren Family party. Kate turned 3 too, so soon they will need to include her in their planning. About a month ago I heard them talking about how they wanted to have a polka dot party together. We played some Minute to Win it games and it was a great success! Even the adults got very into it.

Great game Lindsay!

Randy was the champion of keeping 3 polka dots in the air for a minute! ;)

The 3 birthday girls!



Lizzy and I made this cake!
It was so much easier with her help... yeah right! ha ha!

The bubble blowing contest! The adults did it too, but I fear that if I post that picture I might have my brother mad at me.

Some of the older cousins who actually wore polka dots to the party. You are a blast!

Taylor and Sierra after the polka dot fight! I forgot who won!
On Friday night the girls had a sleepover! Christian and Aaron went on a father son outing and all of us girls stayed home and did girlie things. The favorite Minute to Win it game for the girls was the Junk in the Trunk. We laughed so hard together!
On Sunday, we went to Chico and celebrated May birthdays with Aaron's side of the family. Meliah shares the month of May with her Uncle Alex. I forgot my camera that day, so I stole this from Kerri's blog (thanks Kerri). I love, love, love this picture!

My parenting plan!!

I have been thinking a lot lately of what I need to teach my kids to help them become independant physically, spiritually and mentally so when they turn 18 they will be able to survive on their own. The last 9 years has flown by so quickly I can't believe it. Nine more years and my first child will be old enough to be on his own. That is a real wake up call for a mother who hasn't prepared her children for those important days. I realize that I have gone on way to long without a list of what needs to be learned and done by what age so that my kids will not be horrified when they get out into the world alone. So, I've come up with a list of most everything I can think of that would be important for my kids to know and learn and what ages they should be capable. Of course, every child is different and is capable of different things at different ages. Some learn things faster and are more motivated. Others would like to just live in the home cave for the rest of their lives and have no motivation to do any of it. So, I am including my fairly flexible plan. But if you let too many years slip by, you may need to up the work to fit everything in. I got most of my ideas from a very experienced LDS author (Merilee Boyack) who has raised several children successfully! So, hopefully you find this as helpful as I do!
