Birthday Shout Out

Happy 2nd Birthday to Anna!!

Road Trip...

Friday the boys and I took a trip to my parents to celebrate Gma H's Birthday. Steve said back in GB and painted our bedroom, the hallway and cleaned all the carpets. [Busy boy this weekend... and now he is sick. :( The room looks great (Thanks Melissa and Amy for helping with the color) and now I get to get new bedding... yippee!!!] So while Steve was enjoying his quiet kid-less weekend the boys and I had a great time hanging out with G&G H. We played hard, had bday cake, watched Madagascar and Madagascar 2 with G&G, went to Marshfield with Gma H to hit WalMart to make a cool purchase and ate WAY too much.

Here are a few pictures of the boys showing off their new shirts from Auntie Sue, Johnathan and Danica.

The boys helping Gma blow out her bday candles. Yes, the cake is funky looking... it was left over ice cream cake from Danica's bday party the weekend before. Hey it was ice cream and cake... no one cared, it tasted fabulous!!

Our big purchase at WalMart (Gma bought Alex one and I had to get Jack one too... I know I am a sucker but they are hilarious chasing each other around on them.)

Things We Did...

Thursday night we had "Make Your Own Pizza" Night. The boys were excited all day long and couldn't jump out of the truck fast enough when we got home. Jack was so proud of his pizza that he announced to us that this was the best pizza he ever had because it was made just like he likes it. All in all the boys had a great time and they ate a good portion of their dinner that night..... yippee!!!!

Here are some pictures of the process...

The boys fell asleep in Jack's bed last night.

Happy 9th Birthday to Danica!!!!!!

Birthday Shout Out!!!

Happy 48th Birthday to my Aunt Germaine!!

Here is the funny part.... I am not sure if this should be a belated shout out or a current shout out. I can never for the life of me remember if her birthday is on the 11th or 12th.

So here's wishing you a Happy (belated or not) Birthday!!

Slumber Party

Thursday night Jack had his friend Will stay over night. This was Jack's second sleep over and he was excited. All three boys where attached to each others hips and played very well together. Steve and I always wonder how bedtime is going to go when sleepovers occur but, knock on wood, this time was just as easy as the first.

Here are some pictures of the boys during the night.

Will, Jack and Alex watching a show.

Hanging out in the bathtub.

I think three is our limit with this tub!
