BIRTHDAY OVERLOAD!
This time of year brings so much glee and celebration it makes me want to combust like a birthday pinata. We start simple enough...a joyous celebration of the birth of yours truly on August 23 (I'm sure that your card got lost in the mail...) followed swiftly by my first born's day of recognition on the 30th. Two days later is the anniversary of our 3rd's birth followed by my hubby's six days later...are you following me? In another week or so we will be birthday-ed out. These two weeks includes lots of presents, lots of eating out and way too much cake. I just leave my little nifty HAPPY BIRTHDAY banner hanging up most of the month to cover all my bases. And that doesn't even include nieces, nephews and siblings who also share our months 'o birthday mayhem. My middle child is so spoiled...her birthday is in May (the same day as her namesake!).
So here's my wide shout out to all you that I love dearly--there is not paper enough to send cards so this is it! But know that I love you truly!
Julia August 22
Me August 23 (yahoo!)
Haley August 30
Mia September 1
Waverly September 6
Clarky Pants September 7
Chip and Oscars September 10
Did I miss anyone?
To make matters slightly more chaotic, the battery on our camera is dead and we can't find the charger...so Thank You Big Abby for supplying the pics!
A girl after my own heart. Haley decided that she wanted to go out for her birthday dinner. And where do you suppose a five year old wants to spend her birthday celebrating? Why Sweet Tomatoes of course...all the birthday broccoli you can handle! Nothing justifies overeating like a buffet.
If that were a real cake, it would be all over her face. So imagine this next pic with chocolate frosting instead of pink flesh tones. (we're destroying her cake on Sunday)
Sorry this picture is a little old, but I won't have an updated one until Clark's actual birthday.

Thank you for sharing. I wish we could be there for all these special days!
After reading your blog (and not commenting, apparently) I dreamt that night that I was wearing your new ring and it fell apart. But that's ok because it wasn't nearly as pretty as the one you show here on your blog. I kept losing all the stones and trying to put them back together before you got back. Don't ever trust me with your jewelery. :) You haven't lost it, have yoU??
Love the ring. Love the people who were all born within a couple of weeks of each other. It is a stretch to get all the gifts off in time but you are all worth it! HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO EVERYONE!
