Ramp Party

We were able to have a ramp party with the people who bought our old house (we have become friends and that is cool!)  The girls were able to play and the boys got to try out their toys in the street.  Hopefully we won't be hearing about this from our neighbors!

Checking out Lyra's bubbles...

Daddy enjoying the chance to skateboard!

We LOVED the bubbles!

RAMP Party!

He may be getting a bit older...but he's still got the moves!  Love that boy!

We Love Outside!

I'm sorry the posts haven't been as frequent.  It is getting a bit crazy around here between work, finishing up another book, and trying (or needing to try) to get ready for the baby.  But, in the midst of all of that, we are LOVING this weather.  Elli and I try to go outside as much as possible and if we don't get enough in the morning, Jacob always has her outside in the afternoon.  Check it out! 

Playing at our local park!

Helping Dad mow the lawn!

All that mowing can make a girl tired so we took a break!

Obviously Daddy wasn't doing it right so she needed to show him correct form.

The Elmo Party Recap

We have been hyping up this Elmo Party for a while with Elli and she was very excited today when it finally arrived!  Check out the fun.

Be warned - TONS of pictures below!

Amazing cake by my friend Molly!

The party started off right when Uncle Bo Bo picked her up from nap

Happy birthday to you!

Seriously good cake!!!

The girls!

Checking out the ABC book I made her.  I think it is going to be a hit!

No caption necessary!

She decided it was time to make her own Elmo

Poor Poor Elmo....

More Birthday Celebration Pix

Ok if you didn't know this about me -you will figure it out now...I LOVE birthdays!  I think it is so fun to have a special day just for you.  I typically like to stretch them out and make them into birthday weeks.  In this case, we are having a birthday weekend for Elli.  Here are some more pictures from activities on her actual birthday, March 9th.

I include this as a belly shot - 32 weeks!

Elli loved the personal attention from Bear!

Her new BFF

After library - a little visit to Baker's Kitchen for a pink birthday cookie.

"This is the life!"

Birthday Celebrations

And let the party begin!!!  Elli loved having the opportunity to sing Happy Birthday with Bear at our Time out for Tots Time.  The library was very gracious in letting her sit up on stage, hold Bear's hand, and sing along!
