My BiRThDaY GiRL!

4 years ago today we welcomed into our lives the cutest lil baby Paisley Ann. She came a month early, weighed 6lbs, and was 19 in long. She spent some time in the NICU because of Resp problems and weight loss and then came home on lots of meds, an apnea monitor, and blow by O2... and boy was she scrawny weighing only 5 and a half pds! My personal goal was to have a healthy baby girl so once she got home I worked hard and diligently to plump her up despite her HORRIBLE reflex...I think I succeeded because let me tell you she was one HEFALUMP as we all lovingly called her! Pais was the best baby ever and was on a sched and sleeping through the night at 4 weeks...I really think this was because of all her time in the NICU. She was content as long as she was fed, clean, and wrapped up...she seriously never cried! Some people were worried (or I guess just one) that she was too laid back and was going to be shy...WELLLL hmmmmm if they could see her now they would know that the moment this girl learned words she never shut up. Here's some fun info about Miss P Bop herself...


Paisley has lots of nicknames (nickle names as she calls it) she responds to...Pais, Puff, Puffy, P Bop, Puffalump, and Puffaluscious.

Pais is ALL GIRL! She obsesses over hair bows, accessories, babies, the color pink, her clothes, and shoes! When she leaves the house she is decked out and packs a purse accordingly for the outting. I'm telling ya there is no doubt in her mind that she loves all that is girly. I'm never surprised and am working on not being annoyed with the countless outfit changes that take place in one day...she loves to dress up! She is the best shopping buddy and appreciates all the finer things in life...I almost cant afford her! For her birthday this year she requested a red and white mini cooper...sorry girlfriend its not happening.


Puff LOVES to dance! She is always asking when dance is and talking about what she learned there. I can not remember the last time she walked through this house all she does is bop around here shaking her hips and twirling!


Pais does not want to go to school she would rather stay home and be my "helper". She is my best lil bud and reads my moods perfectly and has this sweet way of saying just the right thing if the need be. I think shes a lil manipulative but hey were keeping it nice!

If you know this girl then you know her hiney crack too! I'm soooo sorry for this and I have tried everything under the sun to fix it but it just wants its presence to be known. We went to our friends Jill and Mike house for New Years and Mike had asked Jill if she thought Pais crack was gonna be hanging out the whole time...and yes it was! I think she inherited this trait from her cousin Brinkley!

When pais grows up she wants to have 16 kids...mostly twins! She loves babies and is always asking us for a baby brother or sister...maybe one day girl!

Pais is a major klutz! She is our lil crash dummy and Ben thinks she needs a helmet for her birthday. Knock on wood but so far in her life there has been no broken bones or stitches. She seriously walks into a door or wall or just randomly trips at least 5 times a day...its always followed by a ton of tears that magically shut off when she feels the need!

This post does Pais no justice...to know Pais is to love her...she has the funniest personality and her 4 yr old mouth needs a filter already!
Happy Birthday Paisley...we love you TONS and cant wait to see what being 4 brings you!
xoxo

I forgot Amber I think it's just a 2nd child thing. Breona has had 4 sets of stitches and I swear she has broken her nose at least 4 times but the doctor says otherwise. I don't think there isn't a wall in the house that she hasn't walked into

Happy Birthday Paisley!
Amber, Paisley was so great in primary today. I asked them all how big they were when they were born... most of them held up their fingers centimeters apart, not Paisley, she announces "I was a hefalump when I was a baby!" It was awesome.
