Toddler Pride

How cute is my kid?

We were playing with stickers that came in the mail before dinner when this conversation took place.

'The Boy': "Wus Dis?"

'The Mom': "It's a comb."

'The Boy': "Ooo comb. Have it?"

'The Mom', peeling the sticker off the page: "Here you go."

'The Boy' sticking it to his hair: "Comb!"

'The Boy' grins form ear to ear with pride.

I love being a Mom!

A New Look...

...for our family blog. Just a little something to capture our summer. It won't last for long as fall is just around the corner. These lovely photos were taken by the Beaches Turks and Caicos photographers during our family photo session. Love these pics. Enjoy!

Imagination Celebration

A few weeks ago, our family was invited to celebrate Gunnar's second birthday at the Pennypickles Imagination Museum in Temecula. We hadn't seen Gunnar or his parents (our friends Chad and Rosey) in ages and we were so glad to be able to get together with them and some of 'The Hubs' old High School buddies.



This was our very first visit to to Imagination Workshop and didn't know what to expect. Wow! What a fun place. There are different rooms of Professor Pennypickle's house with all sorts of contraptions to look at and play with. 'The Boy' was in button pushing heaven!

Drumming in the Music Room

Up, up, and away!

I see you

After an hour or so of free play time in the museum, we went outside to a nice grassy area to have Gunnar's birthday celebration. We ate some delicious food and the boys played with their 'Thomas' trains.

Gunnar's cake was adorable! A brain cake and eyeball cupcakes. So cute and so messy! Just the way the boys like them.

Mmmmm, icing!



I'm a mess


Tyler, Miles, and Gunnar

Happy Birthday, Gunnar. Thanks for letting us celebrate with you.

Choo! Choo! Tyler's gonna be 2!

Chugging your way...

...Can't wait to see you all there!
