Queen Lily Turns 4.

Believe it or not, but Liliana turned FOUR.  These babies are growing up so fast.  The kiddos and left bright and early in the morning to head to Columbus for the big birthday party.  (Daddy had to work on the house to run cables before the drywall goes up!)  We left at 7:15am and got to Columbus with no major events.  Although Jackson was just SURE we were going to run out of gas!!  We did not.

We celebrated Lily's birthday with lots of yummy food and desserts.  We sang happy birthday to Lily and no one's hair was caught on fire.  It was deemed successful!!


Lily was opening presents and the other bigger kiddos were watching (and getting in they way of photo taking).  You'd think Lily was opening Disney World the way these kiddos were hovering!




After opening presents, kiddos played and played.  They were loud - typical! They played pin the nose on Olaf.  Super cute.  Joel is pretty talented.  (He made the Olaf.)  All the kiddos got in on the action... except Ayden.  He was party pooper!

 



After the little kiddos got their turn, Kelly and Joel took a turn at pinning.  They were no better than the little kiddos!


And then the piñata!  All the kids got a turn to pull the strings and Queen Lily found the right now and out poured LOTS of chocolate!  Which is EXACTLY what these rowdy kiddos needed to get the party started!








The party died down and only the Fonners were left.  It was nice for the kids to get to play some more after the party settled down a little. 







Uncle Joe Joe was even trying to teach Jackson how to draw. 




AND THEN... Audrey took her first steps.  The day before she turned 15 months, we got a few steps out of her.  She might walk after all!!

 
 
When it was time for bed, the kiddos and I headed over to the hotel (LOVE hotel points for free rooms!) Jackson was such a big help pulling the suitcase to the room so I could carry Audrey, the pack-n-play and few other bags!  He's getting so big!  Once we got settled into the hotel, Jackson took control of the remote.  Audrey went down pretty quickly and Jackson was watching basketball.  I was EXHAUSTED, so I put the sleep timer on the TV and told Jackson goodnight.  A few minutes later, he turns the TV off himself.  I asked him if he did it and he said yes.  He was tired and ready to go to sleep!
 


It was 8:55pm and I was OUT cold!
