Birthdays around the corner....

As birthdays are fast approaching (Aug 13, Jonas will be 3, Oct 7th Madelyn will be 5, Oct 20th Hudson will be 1) and of course Christmas coming up I thought I would put together a wish list of things the kids have been asking for. I'm always being asked for what the kids want and can never think of anything on the spot, so this is for anyone who would like to purchase gifts but couldn't think of any ideas. Of course we love anything we receive, cards, phone calls, ecards, bonds, etc, so please do not in any way feel obligated to purchase any of these items. If you do want to buy one, or want to chip in for one of the bigger items please let me know! We are not looking at getting everything on the list this year...it's more like the 3 year plan LOL...these are just things the kids have shown great interest in and things we do not own. Oh and for clothing Madelyn is wearing size 5 and I think that size would fit her for next summer too. Jonas is wearing 5T tops and 4T bottoms, for next summer I'd say he'd be 5t tops & bottoms. Hudson is currently about to fit into 12 month clothing.

so here is the link/button and I will put it on the sidebar as well

How we spent our 4th of July
