Cooking up a good time

Noble's 2nd birthday party was a huge hit with the two year olds. It appears that frosting and then consuming you own cookies is all the rage right now.

The siblings seemed to enjoy themselves as well!
Birthday boy Owen getting busy with the cookie decorating.
Noble was REALLY excited about the frosting options. He preferred to use two brushes, simultaneously to apply it.
Nana had a good time too.
I love this picture of London and Noble with their Gammie.
Happy Birthday Owen and Noble!

Happy birthday sweet baby boy

Like usual, we had one too many celebrations to celebrate one of our children's birthdays.

Just doing our part to set high expectations and inundate them with materialism. Not really, but sometimes that's what it feels like. Mommy likes to celebrate...I might need an intervention.

Of course no birthday is complete until you've had breakfast with dad at an insanely early hour.

Noble didn't complain one bit about the time.

Or the fact that his dad dressed him like its the middle of June.

He was just incredibly happy to be alive.

I like that about him.

Happy 2nd birthday to my super sweet little boy of few words (but great inflection and facial expressions). I can't imagine our little family without you.

Chillin'

Sunshine and 30 min. of peace

As if you couldn't tell by her expression, London is singing. It's a song about the sunshine and the barbie jeep and how she loves both of them immensely.

Almost like Christmas

So I really like Valentines day. How can you not love a holiday centered around love? Not to mention that it helps break up the cold, bleak, never ending winter.

But I tend to go a little bit overboard.......

and this year I had a helper who was equally as excited as I was. We actually ran out of room to hang hearts; London was quite the heart maker (and if they were low enough, Noble was quite the heart breaker ). :)

Noble's newest passion-playdoh. He wants to get it out at least 50 times during the day. You will now find playdoh on every carpet fiber around the kitchen table, not to mention downstairs in the playroom.
Oh happy, happy day.

My sweet little Valentines

Winter has brought out London's bad side

Literally.

London's decided she wants to be a rock star.

I think she's got the look down pretty well.

And the anger.

Thank you Guitar Hero II.

And I love the fact that her shirt says "love is everywhere." Good choice babe.
