Happy 22nd Birthday Candice!


Candice is the youngest in our family. I remember when she was born. I was SO excited! My Mom went in for a scheduled c-section and I remember I could not sleep that night because I was so excited to go see them the next morning. We are exactly 10 years apart and we are the only two in the family with red hair. All if us girls used to fight over who would get to hold, feed, change her etc. so my Mom decided to give each of us one day out of the week that we were in charge of her and she was all ours. If we wanted to let someone else hold her that was up to us. We always shared so that when it was the other persons turn they would also share her. She had 4 other mom's with all of us girls:)
Candice is the BEST at cutting hair, I have never found anyone who cuts hair better!
Candice and Troy (her husband) are so cute together and have such a good relationship.
Candice has always been the funny one in the family, she makes us all laugh, she is a lot of fun!
Happy Birthday Candice!!! I hope your day is great!

I can't beleive that Candice is 22! To me she is like 5 years old coming over to swim along with her big sisters or something! I remember one time when my mom had baked cookies, she was trying so hard to be polite and not just ask for one, so she said, "Boy I wish my mom made cookies like those!" Too cute!

Wow, you two look so much alike! I hope she had a great day.

That is such a great idea to give the kids their day of the week. You may find that you will have to do that with your little one. I wish I would have had that idea when I had Ryan. THe kids were always fighting over who's turn it was to hold him!
