Traditions that make me Happy!

Well, today is my precious baby girl's THIRD birthday!  Eek!  Her post is coming up soon!  I'm a bit behind on my "Happy Birthday Blogging Bonanza!" If you are so crazy as to bite off a series for your blog, then choose a shorter phrase.  :)  

Happy 1st Birthday, Tatem Rose!

Yipee, I'm three!!

Oh, I LOVE traditions!  Mark's parents have a really sweet one.  When the first grandchild in each family turns one, she gets a table with one chair.  When siblings are born, they get their own chair too!

Did I mention they are beautifully hand painted??  Do you see their names painted on the seats?  I LOVE them!  Mark's dad is amazing!  When our nephew Cade saw Tatem's new chair, he started talking about the chairs and table his family has.  He said, "Yeah, he's really, really good.  Like, he should probably paint for his job or something!"  :)

Tatem is always happy in the kitchen, and this morning she was checking out her new chair.  :)

See all the little details?  And those adorable squishy toes?  

I'm so thirsty!!

A few days ago the girls were having a little tea party and hardly noticed me as I snapped away.

Yay for tea parties!!

Yay for a little sister who is doesn't just lay there anymore and is finally old enough to play!

Oh, Tatem is pretty proud of herself when she realizes she can do a "big kid" thing!  Do you see her just sitting in that chair?  Where did my baby go?

Hi, Mommy!

"Tatem, you like your cupcake?"

"Yup!  It's so yummy I've gotta lick my plate clean!"

haha!

Notice how Tatem is slowing encroaching on Landrie's chair...  I'm sure Landrie won't mind though!

Awwwwww!

"Get back in your chair!  I help her, mamma."

"I don't want your help!"

Oh my!  I guess this is what they mean by a love/hate relationship!  haha!  

Thank you, PonPon and Amma for the BEAUTIFUL new chair!  We love it!  I hope one day that little table is full of chairs!  :)
