Daija and McKenzie turn 8, Kailey turns 10, AND.... people break down at the ice rink.....

Daija's 8th bday!!
Shay and Maya (Mama and mini-me)
Cute
She went on the ice just so I could take this pic :)
These two are little hams!!
Sisters
Go Marc!

Life- It takes us by surprise - we take it for granted. Enjoy your kiddos, teach them to laugh as you learned and then better. Give them the BEST chance at life that you can. They are little miracles!! And PRICELESS!!! Especially right now when they are young :)

McKenzie Taylor Steinbacher turns 8 on 12/4/2008 (next Th. to be exact). This year we celebrated her b-day early. She wanted to have a High School Musical 3 on ice party - so Christy went all out. I wasn't there until later and them my camera died, so I have no photos!! Anyway - there were a lot of girls and no boys - Marc was a little uncomfortable. Usually him and Kenny are Bff, so it doesn't matter. This year the hormones set in and Marc was the "weird" one. He still had tons of fun, but we decided from here on out, just fun days at the mall, etc where they can do their own pre-teen thing.... or private parties!

That same day, Daija turned 8!! D is much more co-ed, so Marc was a little more comfy - until he was yet again, the only boy there. He instantly wanted to play Wii with Kenny (D's dad), and when that was not an option - he opted out.... again.

BTW - Daija was the sweetest bday girl ever!!! -

Kailey turned 10 and had her bday party at the Comcast Arena the week after. Not only did the kids LOVE it, but Marc and Daija did a great job, and little, precious Shay Shay was a tiny 5 year old right behind them doing her best and eating nachos!! You gotta love that kid :) Maya and I decided it was REALLY good we did roller-skating b-days for the past 3 years, cause Thank God, our kids can skate. Had we of started them on ice - ya right. What a mess that would of been. Maya was a good mom and put on skates so she could help Shay. Marc on the other hand was on his own!!

A week later, Maya and I took the kids ice skating again. They did GREAT :)

That looks like so much fun! I can't believe Marc is that tall! He's probably taller than me!
Pretty soon he'll be asking you to drop him off a block before the mall so no one sees him with his mom and ruin his cool guy reputation :) Ha ha! I still remember him crying on my couch when he was 3 years old..like it was yesterday! :(
