m sings

Apparently the wheels on the bus is best as a solo. Especially the "beep beep beep" part.

Rolling catch

m got an awesome haul for her birthday, all of which is currently in the crib with her (it's getting pretty crowded in there). The lady bug kick-ball is definitely near the top of the list though, because it enables this:

Bunny cake

Sitting around the night before m's birthday this weekend, it took us way longer than you might expect to figure out when we started the build a special cake thing. Turns out that it wasn't until we looked through old blog posts that we remembered that the elephant cake in Tully was the beginning of the tradition for us. Since we firmly established that posterity is important, I give you the making of a bunny...

After floating between cow, cat, dog, and monster, we finally found a bunny

we then figured out that I have no idea where my ruler is, so drew a grid roughly the size of a posted note

 And as luck would have it, a posted note grid fit on our board - hurray!

Alex gets all the credit for the blue...

...and Grammy gets credit for the letters. Ta Da!

Birthday Girl!

Birthdays are exhausting!

for all parties involved, that's for sure. More posting to come, but rest assured we had a wonderful celebration including zoo time in the morning...

... and some serious cake in the afternoon

It's good to be two :o)

Big C little jane

You know that moment when you fall in love with a picture, but then it hits you like a ton of bricks that your baby's no longer a baby when compared to an actual baby?

Yeah I just had that moment.

Puppet Show

Puzzle!

We ventured over to our neighbor's house today, who's daughter recently had a birthday. To our great fortune, she received two of the same puzzle and decided to give the extra one to c. Needless to say, we were home for about 5 minutes before we needed to crack it open.

I did the boarders and Alex helped a bit sorting pieces, but for the most part c did the whole thing independently.

And was pretty proud when she finished it up :o)

M was pretty proud of her too.
