Today was one of those days where I just really tired. I woke up early to let Chris have a chance to sleep in so I dragged the whole day. That was a good thing. It helped me slow down. The boys left earlier in the morning so I stayed and had girls time. I painted Rachel's toes, did her make up, and taped her legs (kineseo orthotic tape we use rather than stiff orthotics).
I just felt so blessed this little girl is my precious daughter. I feel blessed that we hardly ever butt heads and we get along quite well. She is very smart and so determined. This past month she did just amazing at her recital. She is still one of the youngest in her classes and with CP, I can't help but be amazed when I see how much she has improved and how much better she is doing. She holds her own plus some in her age group.
Academically Rachel is doing great. We finally got services for her CP and we are really excited next year she can just attend College Heights like her brothers rather than College Heights and DD-Pre. Besides dance she is obsessed with swimming and art. She is also obsessed with horses and begs me for a real one all the time. That ain't happening but I love her spirit :)
Days like today I am grateful God blessed me to have her in my life. She is a pint sized super hero and dolly all at once! I love her!!!

This is the story of two strong willed parents, 3 fabulous kids; mixed in with some Longhorn loving, a family business, two cats, a dog, and now a gaggle of ducks. All 3 kids were born in 21 months and since than we have had quite a few more challenges; but nothing we can't handle.
Why Cupcakes?
Our last name rhymes with Cakes and so when I got pregnant I nicknamed Harmon "Baby Cakes". Than when we got pregnant again 13 mos later, and we found out we were having twins so we called them "the Cupcakes".
