Mom vs Caroline


This is it!!! I knew there would come a day...a day that what mom thinks is cool, just isn't. Picking out clothes in the morning has become the new battle. While all my friends were having the same struggles, I was relishing the the thought that my kid liked the clothes I picked out. Not so fast Nichole Quick!! I must accept defeat with dignity that my child outlasted most, but it is with a heavy heart that I must admit that my baby is no longer a baby anymore. She is a fashionista in training and I hope that I will give her the opportunity to let Caroline be Caroline.

I'm the luckiest girl in the world!!!!

I just love my birthday!!! My awesome father and I are a few days apart in birthdays and my family always combines them into a big weekend. Well, this weekend was no exception. We had the Daniel girls over for a first ever slumber party in which my sister Nola treated the girls to hair and nails at "Nola Lu's". WE had a ball and the girls were out by 11!!!(sorry Carrie!!) Dad woke up early and I'm sure bought out Shipley's because doughnuts were a plenty on the dining table. Saturday was Dad's birthday and was treated to a round of golf with David and my brother in law, Tim. I think they had fun, Dad and David went back the next day. The ladies of course hung out at home and caught up on sleep and the latest movies out on video....It's like we were back home again. I just love these moments and hope that my girls can have these with each other too. Sunday, David bought me stone for my front yard( the diamonds will come later!!) and my parents helped out, but I must say that Mom and I are much better foremans than laborers. The boys made a much prettier and sturdier wall than we could. (Once the front is completed, I'll include pics.) Well, we ended the weekend with a wonderful cake by my sweet neighbor, Tiffany. She is totally blessed with creativity and a enormous heart. How lucky I am to be surrounded with so much love in my life. Cheetah print cake..does that say Nichole or what??
Each family member and friend is a special birthday gift in my heart and I cherish EACH and EVERY one of you!!! For those far away and near, just a little snippet into the Quick household so that we can always remain close...we can pick up where we left off!!! I love you...
