DD Bug is Seven!

It is so hard to believe, but my sweet Daniel turned seven years old today. My how time has flown. It seems like just yesterday, we were bringing him home from the hospital, uncertain of what to do!

We started the morning off with chocolate with sprinkles Krispy Kreme doughnuts. Then we headed to the mall and went to the Lego store, got a cookie, and rode the carousel. He came home and worked on his new lego set for a while, and then we headed out for his birthday dinner. He has always loved Sumo. When he was two and three, he called it Japanese-Chinese and the people that worked there thought it was the funniest thing! One of our favorite cooks was there tonight, and reminded us of how he has grown and changed.

I am so proud of the little man he has become. He is incredibly smart, handsome, and has the biggest heart of any child I know. I only pray that he continues to travel the right path, and love his God, family, and friends with all his heart. I never knew that I could love someone as much as I do him. Thank you, Daniel, for all that you are to me.

Happy Birthday MiMi and Daniel!

This weekend Daddy and Tammy came up to celebrate her and Daniel's March birthdays! Gran and PePaw came over and we had dinner and birthday cake. It was a wonderful time!

Your Backyard Friends...

Last night Caroline and Mommy headed to McWane Science Center for a Night Out with the Backyardigans! Uniqua, Pablo, and Tyrone were there for a meet and greet. We also had free reign of the museum after hours, which was so nice because the limited number of tickets meant that there was no crowd! Caroline especially loved the dance party and crafts! It was truly a fun GNO!!

Love December Sundays!

Sundays in December are always so wonderful. This Sunday was certainly no different! We started off the morning at Caroline's Preschool. She attends a church preschool, and this morning they did a performance about the birth of Jesus. It was just precious! Caroline was an angel, and she did such a great job. There was also a little boy who could not have been much more than four who had a violin solo. He was amazing! The performance was absolutely heart warming, and I am so glad Caroline got to be a part of it!

After the program, we headed to the Country Club for Brunch with Santa. Matt's sister Amanda and her little girl Kate came in for the weekend to see the Nutcracker with us, and were able to spend Sunday morning with us too. The kids were obsessed with Santa and Mrs. Claus, and spent most of the brunch talking with them!

I just LOVE this time of year!!

Merry Christmas!

So, I realize that it has been a LONG time since I have posted here! I have been using Facebook on a daily basis, and have certainly let my blogging slide! I promise to do better on updating the blog so that all my sweet friends and family members that are not on Facebook can keep up with the Wilsons!
We are GEARED UP for Christmas! D and C are at such a great age...I am loving how excited they are about everything this year!
