Just Because

Here is a recent pic of my hubby and me.  I realize most of my posts involve the children, and I wanted to prove that yes, we have lives outside our mini-mes!  This photo was taken on our way to Jacob's work party about a week before Christmas.  Nice to go out on date nights and enjoy each other's company.  He is dreamy, isn't he...

Tis the Season

We Are 3!

We had a small birthday party at our house this year for Charles' 3rd brithday.  He had a blast and actually knew what was going on - friends, family, cake, presents.  He loved playing with his friends and blowing out the candles.  He was 95% in both weight and height at his 3 year checkup, so I would say he is quite a big boy.  He still loves to read, he loves riding his new bike every day, and he loves playing with his sister.  Here are some pictures - enjoy.

 Getting ready for the par-tay!

 

 Awesome banner my friend, Elisabeth, made - isn't she talented?

 Look at the car cake Jacob made - he refined his culinary skills in Africa.

A Day in the Life

Here is what we've been up to lately - our afternoons consist of a little of this and a little of that.
