Mmm, Ice Cream

This is a great idea if you have a bunch of kids who like to play with each others toys. Make a sign that says, "I'll be right back." If a child is playing with a particular toy and needs to go to the bathroom or grab a snack and isn't finished playing with it, he/she simply puts the sign with his toy and the other kids know that it's hand off. It truly works!

I love Avery and C.J. in this picture. Their expressions are too cute.

My sister, Maggie and her boyfriend, Jeff came for a visit this summer. The kids had a great time with them!

Nolan is serious about getting that piece of food.

Why won't Nolan sleep when Mommy wants to sleep??!!

Evan's First Birthday Party

A blanket I made for Evan's birthday. Well, really I had planned on presenting it to him on the actual day of his birth, and then it turned into a Christmas present, and finally I finished the day of his 1st birthday party!

Chance got a taste of the icing and must have liked it!

It looks like this was one successful party!

Crazy.

Don't they look mighty comfy?!

Cutie Pies.

It's quite humorous what poses you get when you take multiple shots in quick succession.

Lounging under the umbrella on a hot sunny afternoon. It's funny that I am posting a picture of the kids out in the hot sun, all sweaty with pink cheeks, while outside it is 26 degrees with snow on the ground!

Vroom, Vroom
