Dirt Digging Fun!

Clay's birthday started off with singing and gifts from Mommy & Daddy! He got a basketball goal, puzzles, and a weed eater! He was so excited and proud of his weed eater! Then, we went and had birthday donuts for breakfast. (I have a few pictures from a different camera, I will post those later when I get them downloaded :)
Then, it was party time! We had a construction theme party since Clay is a huge fan of tractors & dirt.
The invitationWhat is a construction themed party without DIRT? Kyle shoveled in dirt for the kids to play in. It was a huge hit! The kids loved it, but I don't think that the parents appreciated taking home dirty kids! ha!
We feel so blessed by all of our friends and family who helped us celebrate Clay's second birthday. All of his best buddies came to celebrate: Emma, Emma, Anna, Grace, Avery, Aubria, Bethany, Karis, Drew, Drew, Caeden, Connor and Presley! (We missed our cousin, Addie- we will save you some dirt and a hard hat!)

Brynn enjoying her dirt and worms!

The party was a huge success! Thanks to Aunt Ally, Nana and Gee for all the help with the food, decorations and entertaining the birthday boy!

All the "construction workers" were equipped with hard hats, tool kits & cone cups!

We can't imagine our lives without our Clay. He brings so much joy and laughter into our home. He is always keeping us on our toes and there is never a dull moment. We are so thankful that God blessed us with Clay Thomas Boothe! Thanks for celebrating his life with us!

Clay is going to have a little....

SISTER!!!!

We are tickled PINK! It's a girl! She was a little stubborn and kept her legs crossed during the ultrasound, but we were able to shake her up enough to get a good shot. I am going back in 4 weeks and doing another ultrasound to confirm, but, the ultrasound technician told me that I didn't need to keep my receipts if I bought pink. So, that was pretty reassuring. She looked very healthy and normal. We are so thankful for a healthy, sweet little girl. Clay is going to love having a little sister!!!

Our little Indian, "Pale-Face"

"Pale-Face" is the official Indian name for our Clay-boy. He was the cutest little Indian. He was accompanied by Dorthy, Ariel, a Princess, a Bride, a Lady Bug, a Black Cat, and a Train Conductor! What a fun night we had trick-or-treating in our neighborhood.

Happy Halloween!

More pictures to come of our little Indian, but in the meantime, check out my favorite costume of all....
Two years ago, I dressed up as a puffy, bloated, waddling, full term pregnant woman. Oh wait, that wasn't a costume....
ONE week until Clay's second birthday!!! What a special time.

"Paw Paw" Patch

Clay pronounces pumpkins as "paw paws." Sorry, Paw Paw- don't take offense, because his paci is his "mama." Funny toddler talk.

Anyways, we went to the Big Orange Pumpkin Patch in Celina with all of our buddies. We had a great time on the hay ride, feeding the animals, picking our "paw paws" and attempting pictures. Trying to get 6 toddlers to look at a camera at the same time is a tough job.

Avery, Grace, Drew, Clay & Caeden (where is little Drew?)
