Mother's Day Came Early

I am celebrating Mothers Day early this year. The boys sent me flowers on Tuesday and Kaden made me something at school and wrapped it himself.

I am enjoying the spring smells and bright colors. When I got home from my trip my Birthday flowers were dying so it was a nice surprise to see these.

My boys are so sweet. I love them. Life would not be complete without all 3 of them.

17 Months

Today you are 17 months. Your walking is much more stable than it used to be. I love how you pretty much go with the flow. You make me laugh when you wave at people at the store and give them your joy for life smile. You want to do everything your big bro does and I know its hard to understand you have some growing up to do but its ok to slow down and be Mommy's baby a little longer. I am so happy I get to be your Mommy.

Party Number 2

On Sunday we had a Wedding shower. It was funny how we took all the beach stuff down and then put up a whole new set of decor for the shower in just hours.

Christy and Mark

The Boys...

While we were in Dallas the boys had a chance to play at the a mall playground.

While Busy decorating or getting ready for something I just pulled out Aunt Appy's toy box and the boys played for a long time while I got some things done.

My Dad came by while we were in town and got to spend some time with them before we left.

Quick Trip to Dallas

My cousin Christy is getting married next week so my Sister-in-law and I threw her a party for just us girls (movie night and tons of junk food) and helped with a wedding shower. Yes that is 2 parties in 1 weekend and now I am home.

Flip Flop Beach Party

It was so much fun and we had fun playing games, eating lots of junk food that included pizza, cheese dip, candy, brownies and ice cream. We ended the night watching My Fair Lady and Breakfast at Tiffany's.

Shoes Shoes Shoes

I have been shopping for some shoes for Karson.

Karson really wanted some green rain boots.

But Mommy got him his first pair of converse. When I got them out tonight to let him get used to wearing real shoes he was so excited and did not want to take them off for his bath. Kaden put his on too. .

This last shot looks inspired by Gypsy Feet. I love Gypsy Feet.

Good Find - Avent

I love Avent products. I have brand loyalty to this company. When Kaden was a few weeks old and very colicy I was told about this brand of bottles and cups and bought a few within days his colic was gone and he was a much happier baby. With Karson I had the bottles ready and bought a few Avent accessories. Karson preferred another form of feeding so I never used the bottles and passed them along to friends when Karson moved on to cup.

I love these cups they are pretty much spill proof unless the sippy part wears out. It is the only one out of dozens I have found that fullfills the no-spill promise. The disign is great and easy for your child to hold onto and it comes in two great sizes.

I love Avents design how the bottle and cup tops can interchange for the training process from bottle to cup.

A Great Birthday

I had a wonderful Birthday yesterday my guys made it a very special day for me.

I woke up to Kaden sitting next to me in bed singing Happy Birthday. Kaden then told me to close my eyes and lead me down the hall and to the kitchen where I was surprised with a Birthday chair and decorations.

My Birthday chair.

I got Kaden to school and then came home to a delivery of Birthday flowers from my Dad. My diningroom smells like spring.

Karson and I headed to the mall. I did some Birthday shopping for the rest of the morning till Karson started twirling around in the stroller with the seat belt on and doing back breakers. I knew it was time to go.

After I picked up Kaden from school the boys and I went to the Butcher Shop. They have the best desserts. We all got our favorites. Kaden picked a Speedracer cupcake and we requested the cupcake with Speedracer on it but when we got to the car it was the wrong one which triggered a after school + tired = meltdown. It fizzled out pretty fast. I was not willing to go back in as it is work getting everyone back into the car and buckled and it was raining.

We went to Shogun for an awesome dinner. I have to say that Shogun is really kid freindly. Our cook/chef was very nice and saw how fast Kaden ate his broccolli and went back to the kitchen and got some more and cooked it for him. Kaden also got to throw the egg for the fried rice.

As Tim would say "I threw down or killed some steak, fried rice and veggies". It was a very nice dinner and will be enjoyed tonight as well. The portions are huge.

My guys!

I loved the cute drink. No it is not from the bar but it was cute.

Kaden loves cherries.

I thought this was funny. I think he thought I had given him milk instead of juice.

It was a wonderful Birthday. Thank you everyone for all of the nice messages and comments. It was truly a special day.

Banana Baby

Karson has recently discovered that he loves bananas. When we walk by the banana display at the store he does whatever he can to get my attention to make sure we put them in the buggy.
