Valentine's Pancakes

We usually don't do much for Valentine's Day, but I did make the boys pancakes that morning. And not just any pancakes, but sprinkle pancakes! Let me tell you, that made me the greatest mom ever! At least for a little while...

MDO and Other Things

Fisher started MDO in January at church. It took me a long time to be ok with sending him anywhere, but it has been do good for him! He loves going and learning, and he had been soaking up so much! He has also made new friends, and it's so cute to watch them interact.










Playing is hard work!






Never a dull moment...









Daddy and I had a date afternoon to see the Lion King. I've seen it three times, and it never gets old!

Snow Fun

The boys loved the snow! I loved it, too, until I had to dress them in snow attire five different times in one day. It's exhausting, and we hadn't even made it outside! We threw snowballs, made snow angels, rode on the sleds, ate the snow, and just had a blast!

I'm So Behind...


Blogging is so far in my backseat, it's not even funny, so here is a (pathetic) attempt to play catch up.

Some pictures from Sullivan's birthday party. He had a curious George party; or as he called it, "George party). He loves George, and is into everything, so it was a perfect fit. I've got lots of great pictures on my camera, but no promises...











Loving on Cohen. These boys are madly in love with him, especially Sullivan, who always wants to hold "Coden". He pets his face and says "hi buddy", then tries to cram his pacifier in his mouth.









We took our big boy to his first movie this week. We saw Big Hero 6 at the discount movie theater. He loved it! He also ate almost an entire bag of skittles, but it was a special occasion.












We crammed in a ton of outdoor time this week because Daddy was off work and we knew it was going to get cold and yucky.






























And, I think that's enough for now. I can promise to do better, but it probably won't happen!

Sullivan is Two!

Oh my heart. My baby turned two yesterday. We're celebrating with a "George party" (Curious George) on Saturday, but we enjoyed yesterday so much! It was all about Sullivan-we did what he wanted and he ate whatever he wanted. Not a bad way to spend a birthday. :)

This little boy is such a joy to our family. He is so sweet and cuddly, but is also super independent and feisty. He adores his big brother and copies everything he does. He has a bottomless appetite, especially when it comes to bananas, peanut butter, smoothies, and yogurt. He loves to talk, but not to people he doesn't know. He's learning his letters and numbers.

I'm so thankful that we've been blessed with this little boy!

For breakfast #1- special yogurt-strawberry flavored in a ninja turtle container. Believe me, it's a big deal at our house.



Taken exactly at 8:16, the moment he was born.



I don't have pictures of our breakfast #2, which consisted of hash browns and playground time at chickfila, or our trip to target. Here's his preferred lunch of marshmallows and peanut butter on a spoon.






His presents that he picked out all by himself.



After lunch visit to the mall. We rode the little train that goes all the way around the ground floor. These boys loved it, since they're all obsessed with trains.



Yes, we squeezed all of us in that one little car. It was comical, to say the least.









Then we paid a dollar (!) (things have gotten pricey) to ride in a Jeep toy. That grin melts me. He insisted on holding my hand throughout the entire ride.



Carousel ride!






Oh my. He chose a cookie with icing. All three of the boys ate their cookie like this. This stinker ate all the icing, then asked for more!










Then, home for naps. For dinner, we had pizza, another Sullivan favorite.





Lastly, a cupcake he picked out and wanted to eat all day.






Blowing out his candles.



He thoroughly enjoyed it!






I would venture to guess this little boy had a wonderful birthday, full of fun times and lots of sugar. We'll be detoxing around here for a few days, and can't wait to continue to celebrate this special boy this weekend!
