The robot Trevor made Happy 5th Birthday Trevor!!

The pinata! The very last string they pulled was the one that released the goodies.

Today is Trevor's 5th birthday. He is so excited. He woke up at 2 AM and saw all the balloons in his room. He ran downstairs and saw the decorations and presents, then came to wake us up. Next year I think we will wait until early morning to fill his room with balloons.

We took Trevor to Red Robin for his birthday lunch. He loved that they gave him a sign with a balloon and then brought a sundae and sang to him.

It has been snowing for 3 days now and Macy couldn't be happier. She loves to go out and lay in the snow, eat the snow and run in the snow. She is our "little snow princess".

I was able to help with the Valentine's Party in Trevor's classroom today. The kids made necklaces, glued shapes on bags to hold their Valentine cards and decorated sugar cookies. After they handed out their Valentine's they had their party snacks. They had pizza, yogurt, fruit, apple juice, cookies and cupcakes. Trevor said it was a really fun party.

Happy Valentine's Day!!

The boys have had a great day. They woke up to a breakfast of heart shaped pancakes and sausage. During breakfast they got to open their Valentine's goodies. Trevor got the movie "A Nightmare before Christmas." He has been wanting the movie for awhile and had to watch it right away. Cole got an Elmo movie and some books which he has read several times today.

For lunch the boys had heart shaped sandwiches and a heart shaped pizza for dinner. It has been a fun day with way too much candy.

Today we went to our friend Simon's 3rd birthday party. It was at a place called Jump N Shout which is basically a gymnastics place with big blowups. The kids had a blast running around and were really wound up the rest of the day.

Friday we had our MOMS Club Valentine's Party. We decorated cookies and exchanged Valentine's cards. Both boys had a great time and ate way too much sugar.

The boys Valentine's boxes. Trevor decorated his all by himself and was very proud of it.

The Loot!!

We celebrated Elmo's Birthday today with our MOMS Club friends. The hostess went all out with goldfish crackers (Dorothy the fish), Elmo decorations, drinks, cupcakes, ice cream cups and even goody bags for the kids. The boys loved it.

My Boys

This afternoon we went to our friend Talley's 2nd birthday party at Gymboree. The kids were encouraged to dress up as princesses or pirates. The boys were super excited to get all dressed.

Hangin' out with the girls.

We went to the mall with our MOMS Club friends to play in the play area. Cole spent most of his time in the little plane. Trevor played with the little bead maze on the wall.

Macy's water bowl was frozen so Craig took the ice out so the boys could hammer. They really got into it and hammered for several minutes. As the ice chunks broke off Macy would eat them as fast as she could. It was a funny sight.

We went to PETCO for a tour with MOMS Club. The kids were able to touch a turtle, starfish, ferret, and a snake. Cole was excited to touch all of them but Trevor would only touch the furry animals. After seeing the hamsters Trevor is convinced he is getting one. Maybe a fish would be a good substitute.

We woke up to snow this morning so got the boys bundled up and went over to the park. We pulled the sled around, made snow angels and a very small snowman. We had made some fun snow paint (water and food coloring) so painted our snowman green with a little red.

Happy New Year!!

For New Years Eve we had a fondue night. We did a cheese fondue with bread, broccoli and sausage for dinner with root beer floats. Then for dessert we did a chocolate fondue with bananas, apples, pound cake and marshmallows. It was so yummy. The boys really enjoyed the hats and noise makers.

Trevor has been asking to go to Chuck E Cheese for several weeks so we took the boys there for lunch yesterday. They had so much fun playing the games and going on all the little rides. Trevor said his favorite was the roller coaster ride.
