Strawberries and One Best Friend

On Friday, the kids and I headed to Sweet Berry Farms for some delicious strawberries. Kayla was so excited about the trip. However, I think she was more excited at the fact that her best friend, Luke, was going with us. The two were so cute together. They picked strawberries for one another, they fed the horses strawberries and even tried to milk a cow (pretend cow). Cristian even enjoyed himself. We all had a really good time. I cant wait to do this again.

Almost a year....wow.


Ten months ago, I held my little boy for the first time. Then he was 9lbs 7oz. Today he is almost 22lbs. Then he was wearing 0-3 month clothing (a few NB). Today he wears 12-18 month clothing (and he fits into his cousins 2T pajamas). It is amazing how much he has grown. This month...

*Christian had 4 teeth pop up this month.

*Christian is saying MaMa and DaDa.

*Christian is trying to repeat words like dog and that.

*Christian can stand on his own for 5-10 seconds.

*Christian loves being outside.

*Christian loves to climb the stairs and loves to climb over pillows.

*Christian thinks it is funny to attack me or anyone laying on the floor.

The boys...

While I was pregnant with Christian, there were three other moms within the Social Butterfly play group that were pregnant as well. We were all due within a couple of months of each other. Back in September, we took a picture of the four boys in their matching outfits. Wee, just the other day we were all together again along with our youngest. Photo opportunity....Wow, these boys have grown!

The best birthday gift


I remember telling Kayla on Tuesday that Mommy's birthday was tomorrow. I didn't think much of it. However, while at the park on Wednesday, Kayla made me a special treat. She explained to her best friend, Luke, that she was making Mommy a "special" birthday cake. Once the bucket was filled she stuck a twig in the middle and proceeded to carry it over to me. She then said, "Happy Birthday Mommy. Blow out the candle." My heart melted. I could not ask for anything better.

A Day of Green (and Pink)


Happy St. Patrick's Day

Today we celebrated St. Patrick's Day with some of the mothers and kids in our local mother's group. Instead of green beer, we celebrated with green kool-aid and various green food. I tried to dress the kids and myself in green. However, Kayla decided that she wanted to wear her new pink dress (shocking! who would of guessed that she would want to wear pink). At least the dress had green leaves on it (so no pinches for her). Kayla had a really good time playing with her friends and going on a scavenger hunt. Afterwards, she ate a green cupcake. Well actually, she licked off the chocolate frosting. Christian slept most of the time. He has four teeth coming in which is making him very uncomfortable.
