Happy Bday Hubby!

Ta Da.  And my man turned 28.

I made him this amazing birthday cake if I do say so myself.  Fat free angel food cake with tons of sugar filled toppings of strawberries and blueberries.  Yum.  It's all gone.  Sorry.

 And my sis and bro came to visit.  They are so fun.

Here's to another great year with my great hubby.  So glad I married him. He exceeds my every expectation.

Love you Adam!

Jacob's 4th Birthday!

And boy was he excited.  Every morning I ask the kids what they dreamt about and Jacob always says his birthday.  (He's still saying it despite it being May 24th.)

Before the presents

During. (Mom, this is the singing card you sent.  I tried to catch his faces so I could send them to you.  Both grandmas.)

 Jacob picked out this pinata months in advance.  Isn't that just the funniest thing you ever saw.  And Jacob is a master at cracking down pinatas.

 The ice cream cake he wanted.  He went through many types of cake but this is what he settled on (with neopolitan ice cream.  a bit different but good.)

I can't really say enough good things about this kid.  He's super helpful, funny, really sweet.  He is also our most stubborn.  For example, He'd rather miss dinner and be in time out for hours instead of saying sorry.  We're hoping one day he'll get past that.  He's pretty big for his age and is at 95% or so in everything.  I measure the kids on their birthday and Jacob is the same height Luke was on his 5th birthday.  They get mistaken for twins all the time.

So anyway, we love you Jacob.

It's about time

Ta Da!  I'm potty training.  Can you tell?

Backwards boy underwear, upside-down backward skirt.

Oh, and the sprinkler system isn't done yet.  I think I was over optomistic about that.  But I did get some vegtable garden stuff planted today.  Only a few weeks late.  Nice and simple this year.
