Happy Birthday...to me

By
Today is my birthday. Even though I'm old enough to know better, I still wake up hoping that something will make the day extraordinary. Well, this morning, Jack and Spence didn't get that memo. It started off well with the boys playing in their room after they woke up - it was very cute. Things quickly dissolved to fighting over trains and then arguing about getting dressed. All good fun.

Friends at work helped me celebrate with a gathering and cupcakes which was very nice (and it is really funny to have people sing to you at work).

When I got home from work, this lovely surprise greeted me on our door.


I also had a lovely flower arrangement from my mom, many nice voice messages from family and friends, a plethora of birthday wishes on Facebook, and a yummy cupcake that I split with two of my most favorite people. To top it off, Spence sang a rousing and custom rendition of the birthday song. Now for you to enjoy.


This weekend, Justin is treating me to a night out on the town and a spa day. Sounds like heaven!

A few recent pictures of Spencer. He is growing like crazy and picking up all sorts of new skills like grabbing toys on the playmat, grabbing blankets or clothes and shoving them in his mouth, and his new favorite pastime, putting his feet in his mouth (with or without socks!).     Learning all the tricks on his first flight. We lucked out and got an extra seat for his carseat (ok, I lucked out, but still...)  Sleepy times with Grandma    Enjoying a new toy!   Such a big boy

Growing up

By
Jack and Spence "graduated" from their respective preschool programs in the last couple of weeks. While the road along the way wasn't always the smoothest, the outcome couldn't be better. At Spencer's 2s club event, the kids demonstrated all the new skills they had learned in the gym. Lots of forward rolls, big jumps on the trampoline, and amazing core strength. The kids then enjoyed their favorite book of the year: mean soup. Afterward each child received an award. Spencer followed Jack's footsteps on this part by refusing to go up to accept the award. Regardless, we were so proud of Spence. He loved having his independence, being involved in a class, making new friends, and just having fun. Next year Spence starts preschool at the Y. Jack's tender care graduation was last friday. The event was held in the Little Theater at the Y. Jack was so excited to be on the stage. The class sang several songs ending with what has to be the anthem of kids 3...
