sTyLiN'
There's no doubt about it.
Like other kids, my kiddos have their own unique style.
I'm not going to lie. It used to bother me. I would try to talk them into changing, or suggest something else to wear.
Not anymore. (Ok, maybe just sometimes.)
There are some occasions and 30 degree weather days where I do step in with some guidance. But for the most part, I smile and let them show off their individuality.
Dylan, Dylan, Dylan.
(Lexi's saying, "Mom, hurry! I can't hold this pose for very long!)
Hold onto your individuality, my dear children. Hold on.

You ROCK!
Thanks to 'crazy sock' day at school, my kids got to really shine.

Highlights of the birthday girl...
Lex has had a great year....
She is participating in a Spanish Immersion program at school and loving it!

She performed in her first dance recital.
And she lost her very first tooth!
Here's to another fabulous year, dear Alexia!
Sparkle and Spice
We've enjoyed 7 years of sparkle and spice because of this lovely lady.....
Alexia loves to plan. So it's no surprise she had big plans for her birthday.
Alexia loves to plan. So it's no surprise she had big plans for her birthday. Lexi's birthday adventures started with a trip to stuff her own pet at a Build A Bear like place (only cheaper!).
Then I took her and a friend to a local cosmetology school to get their nails and toe nails done.
Eight bucks for a birthday party! No planning, prep work, or clean up on my end. This I can handle!
With fancy fingernails and toe nails, the girls had a backyard tea party.
Lexi requested and helped me create her pumpkin cake.
(She loves this headband and wears it nearly everyday....even if it doesn't match!)
A Donigan birthday isn't complete with out a silly string war in the back yard and popping love message balloons!
My favorite love message to Alexia this year was from Parker.

"Lexi is so enthusiastic about things she is so excited she just loves surprises she's so awsome."
We love our Lexi Lu!
