Blue sheets...

Grandma sent the kids some blue sheets... The kids have really enjoyed playing with these! They've made clubhouses, skates, dress up clothes and cars with these sheets! Thanks Grandma!

Bear Bunz

There is just something cute about a face on bunz. I've had this outfit for quite some time now and have been waiting for it to fit. Turns out it was still huge...oh well :)

Photoshoot with Baby D.

This baby was a pro at pictures! I think this was the easiest newborn by far.

I turned off the Air conditioning in the livingroom prior to the shoot and all went well.

The last one is my favorite. Sorry Mom, I know you don't like nakey babies.

A new baby...

Tiny feet :)
Don't you just love newborns?

Mmm... Loving this pacifier

The proud Parents.

I was so thrilled to be present at the birth.

I'm not sure, after watching this birth, If I ever want to go through labor again though.

Lowry Park Zoo in Tampa FL

Here are some random pictures from Florida. I still don't have all of them so I figured I'd post some of them. These are two Bald Eagles that were injured and now call the zoo home.

1/2 ton of Sand...

A couple weeks ago, I ordered one half ton of sand..... It rained so much that it wasn't delivered for almost two weeks. It just happened to be delivered when Grandpa was here. Together 1/2 ton of sand was moved into the sandbox and the sand table. :)

Filling every container they could find outside...

Wordless Wednesday

Course 1

I've always wanted to take Cake decorating classes. I signed up a few months ago and was finally able to start attending classes. The classes were once a week for four weeks. The first class we watched as the instructor made icing and frosted a cake. The next three weeks, were our turn. Below are the cakes I made each week.

Cake 1~ That's why there is a giant one on it.

The next week we learned how to make clowns. I put Finn's name on the cake, because he'll be two on his birthday *and this was my second cake . (that's also why there are two clowns).

Here is the cake I made last night in class. I just love pink and brown together.

we learned how to make the wilton Rose last night.

By the third week of making cakes, we were all so *sick* of cakes....so...This was a giant brownie. Oh was it good!
