Fun at Clay's!!!

Clay's is by far the kids favorite restaurant. We go there all the time b/c the kids get to RUN around a huge open field that has horses, goats, a baby cow, peacocks and chickens!! Oh, and a donkey! Their is also a big sandbox with toys that the kids love too! The food is great and nothing is better than watching your kids have fun! We went one day this week with Nana and PawPaw and the kids had fun and were worn out!

Big Boy CORBIN!






Who went pee pee in the potty all day today???? IT'S CORBY!!! Corby was awesome about going big boy potty all day long! I am so proud of him! We had a big day today! Claire, Corby and I went to PUMP IT UP for play time this morning. Then we played outside all afternoon. When Daddy came home we went to the mall to play in the play land! The kids had a really fun day! They are WORN OUT!!! I am just so proud of my big boy!!! Many of you are probably wondering if he still has dog dog and paci. Yes, he does and more than likely will go to college with them. One battle at a time. The dog dog and paci cost us NADA. Let's get rid of the thing that cost mama cash. DIAPERS!!! Seriously dog dog and paci bother us ZERO. He loves them, so we love them too. So, yes he will be going to 1st grade with dog dog, paci and still sleeping in mommy and daddy's bed! Gotta love it!!

Princess

My sister in law Nat is a super talented artist. She is now sharing her talent with the world. She will take awesome pics of your kiddos and do the most amazing, special painting of them. I am lucky enough to have them hanging all over my house. Her website is www.portraitsbynat.com

So here are some pictures she took of my little princess. I just love them so much! She was going to take pictures of my favorite little man Corbs but he slept through it...




Here are the three precious cousins all together! Claire, June and Sophie. Thank you Aunt CECE for the super precious tutu's!!!

Happy First Birthday to our sweet baby girl Claire!!!!!!!!!!

Happy first birthday to our beautiful daughter Claire. Claire is our baby girl and we could not love this child more than we do. She is always on the move and always making our hearts smile. Claire had a super fun first birthday party at our house yesterday! All of her friends and our family came to help celebrate. We had the best weather and the best time. The jump house was a hit and it really exhausted the kids. These pics are all out of order, but it will give youa little glimpse into our fun filled day.. Cooper and Caleb looking precious in their matching polos. I usually can tell these two good looking kids apart, but yesterday I was not able to. They are looking more and more alike and it is getting super hard to tell them apart.
Can you say SUPER WORN OUT!!! Briley had to take a rest from jumping.
This makes me laugh. Corbin played swords and guns with the big kids. He loves big kids, and thinks he is one. Check out the one side of his shorts rolled up. he skinned his knee a tiny bit early in the day and spent the rest of the day with one side rolled up.

Emily and Aunt Margie feeding the tired babies. Claire was in her 4th outfit at this point.
Claire's two grandmothers and two great grandmothers all in one shot!
Look at my cute cupcake face, my dirty shirt and my fat rolls on my legs! Nothing cuter!
Hmmm, How am I going to lick that off?
Forget using your hands!

All day long Corby would say it was his birthday. He said Claire could have her birthday next!
This is a classic June and Aunt Sara pic. EVERY TIME I hold my niece that I LOVE, she CRIES HER HEAD OFF!
Soph, Claire, Kaci and Channing
Claire loved the bounce house. SHE LOVED IT! She would jump all around and get knocked down by the big kids and didn't care. She is one rough, tough little girl.
Paw-Paw, Sophie, Grammy and June watching Claire jump!
Claire in her pretty b-day dress!

Natalie and June
So, yesterday morning we got up and started to set up. Claire and Corbin had a private little meeting about the big day. Corbin was all prepared in his own birthday suit. he LOVES being naked, we have to fight him tooth and nail at times just to put pants on to go outside when it is cold. He is a silly kiddo.
Claire's first birthday was wonderful. I am so glad that our princess had such a special, wonderful day. Corbin and Claire are the loves of our lives and we are so proud of them. It is amazing how fast this past year went by. We have loved every second of having Claire as our daughter. WE LOVE YOU SWEEt GIRL!

Fun with the Brewers!

Tonight we had a long overdue dinner with the Brewers! The kids had A LOT of fun! Corbin and Briley just ran around the whole night! Missy did me a HUGE favor and used her KIRBY to clean my den carpet! It looks awesome and I am so thankful to her for helping me out!!! Missy also made Claire a big bag of bows for a present. Let me just tell you they are precious and you will be seeing them on Claire!! In my book not much is cuter than a precious little girl with a precious bow in her hair!
Briley decided she was going to sneak a kiss on Corby. You can see Claire and Kayelyn discussing it in the background. Claire is telling Kayelyn "Hey K, if they get married then we will be related!!!"You can see Kayelen sticking out her finger and saying "well, we all know I get to be her maid of honor"

A week from today Claire will be 1!!!!!

Corbin and Claire had to go back to the dr on Thursday. They are both sick with deep croupy coughs. He gave them both antibiotics so I am hoping they will feel better soon. As of today, Corbin is doing better, but Claireb is still pretty sick. I stayed home Friday with them. The pic above is Corbin putting all the babies to sleep. He takes ALL of Claire's babies which makes her mad. Then he takes her blanky to cover them up which just makes her even more angry. Then she screams and takes them back, then he screams b/c she woke up his babies. It goes on and on...
Today Sophie stopped by to say hi! Sophie is looking at Claire and thinking hmmm... "I am 4 months younger than you and I have way more hair than you!!!"
Corbs and Daddy got mulch today after their Little Gym class. Everyone piled in the wheel b for a cute pic.
Paw Paw came by today too and took Claire and Corbin on a ride down the street. Most kids roll down the street in strollers, not ours! We roll in style. Notice Corbin has money in his pocket. PawPaw gave him some cash for being such a good boy! PawPaw throws out bills not coins. The kids better always be good around him and by the time they are in college we will be set!
Here is a cute pic of June I found. Hey Junie- Tell your mommy I called her to bring you over today! She Called back, I missed her call then I called back and haven't heard from her. Tell her that Aunt Sara is mad that she didn't bring you over today!!!
Corbin has his own shovel and own gloves JUST LIKE DADDY!
My two favorite boys doing boy things!
Soph and Claire... They kind of match....
Claire is showing off her new kicks. She got some new tennis shoes! She looks SOOOOO CUTE in them.
This week Corby wanted me to make Chicken and Rice. His hands down favorite. I decided to let Claire feed herself and this is what happened...

Happy Birthday Uncle Brian!

Corby and Claire wanted to give a little birthday shout out to Uncle Brian!!! Happy Birthday!!! We hope you have a great day!!! Here is Uncle Brian telling Corbin about how all the ladies think Barrow boys are good looking! He was also asking him if he would go to the mall with him to be his chick magnet!! Corbs is pretty stinking cute, he would be the best little chick magnet out there.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY UNCLE B!
Here is Uncle Brian telling Claire that she better not ever date! That if she does date he better be ready to face Brian and all his NAVY friends...(believe me I feel sorry for any guys that want to date Claire, Chris will be that dad that scares boyfriends off!!)

Have a great day and we hope to see you soon! We love you!!!
