Happy First Birthday Wyatt!!!!!!

Yes, our little baby boy is one today!!!!!  This year, has flown by despite all the excitement and events that Wyatt brought to it.  He has been such a blessing to our family!!!!  We are so lucky to have witnessed all the firsts he has accomplished already and are so proud of him.  He has some big shoes to fill with Gwen being his big sister, but I think he will take the challenge with a huge smile! We love you, Wyatt!!!!!!!
His most recent stats include:  height: 29 1/4 inches (26%ile), weight: 21 lbs 7 oz (29%ile), and head circumference: 44 3/4 cm (97%ile)
Get Daddy!  My March Birthday Bash! 
I'm 1!!!!!
and I can't sit still long enough to get more than one good picture
Birthday monkey cupcakes (the 1 is covering the eyes)--egg free for my baby with the exception of the cookies 
Happy Birthday to me! 
This is mine!  I'm watching you Gwen! 
This is interesting.... 
very interesting....
I can eat it!?!?!?!?
No one's stopping me! 
What are you staring at?
Do I have something on my face?
 I think I have a better chocolate face than Mommy, Daddy, and Gwen!
I like my new truck!  It makes a lot of noise! 
Happy Birthday Wyatt!
This week in March is something else!  To sum it up MasterCard style:
The number of cupcakes/cakes baked: 72 cupcakes and 1 cake
The number of times "Happy Birthday" has been sung this week: 12+ and still counting (that's a lot for 3 people in my house and 2 not in my house)
The number of pictures taken this week: 298 (between my camera and Carolyn's)
The smiles on Brad's, Gwen's, and Wyatt's faces: PRICELESS!!!!!!!!!!

Happy 4th Birthday Gwen!

Happy Birthday to Gwen and Poppy!!!!!!  Gwen loved her party tonight and I think Poppy did too!  It is amazing how time has flown by...it really doesn't feel like she should be turning 4!  We will do an interview soon and we'll see what her favorites are now :-)
The Birthday kids! 
A purple cake just for Gwen 
Gram and I weren't the only photographers at this party!
Wyatt was so excited about the balloons 
One of Poppy's presents was a fishing net...he was catching some pretty big fish tonight!
TWINS!!!!!!!!  Just what she wanted! Welcome to the family Mia and Molly :-)
Happy Birthday Gwen!
The Dancing Queen was all about her tutu and showing off her birthday moves!

Just what I wanted!

Happy Birthday Daddy!

Happy Birthday, dear Daddy!!!!!  Today Brad turned 29!  His birthday present to himself...a 1979 Suzuki motorcycle that he is going to have as a hobby (it doesn't run at the moment).  But, that didn't stop Gwen from wanting to try it out!  She even tried out the "mini bike" that Brad road as a very little kid.  Brad hopes to have it back in perfect riding condition by Gwen's 6th birthday (I will not allow her on it until then....and maybe not even then...we'll see).


Poppy also bought some ducklings this weekend and they have been all the kids are thinking about!


I went all out and made Brad Mountain Dew cupcakes!  They were yummy!
Gwen couldn't just sing to Brad...She really wanted to help practice her candle blowing skills. 
Wyatt didn't know what to think of the icing off the cupcake (the only egg free part), but he decided that it was worth getting more after the first bite!
Wyatt can say Duck!!!!!! He now says "mama", "dada", and "duck duck"
