Happy birthday and other random things

So I should be doing something productive like cleaning or getting ready for my garage sale tomorrow since both kids are sleeping but I just don't feel like it. :)
Happy birthday
Tuesday was my little man's birthday!  I can't believe he is one already!  This year has seemed to go so fast- faster than O's first year.  Anyway, we didn't have a great first experience with birthday cake at O's first birthday party so we thought we would prepare J for his cake experience.  It went... well, you can see...

maybe it will be good...

almost there...

I'm not even sure why he made this face because I'm pretty sure he didn't get anything in his mouth.  Although this is the face he makes whenever anything accidentally gets in his mouth(besides a Cheerio or Puffs)

We even tried chocolate frosting

Yes, he is looking at us like we are crazy.  But we are looking at him like he is crazy- what kid doesn't like cupcakes especially with chocolate frosting?!?!

In case you are wondering, Miss O didn't have any problems with this cupcake thing...

Doesn't it look like we have given her the greatest thing in the world! :)

Random things

While we were cleaning the basement and the garage for the garage sale tomorrow I came across a cabbage patch kid I had when I was younger.  To be truthful, I came across alot of them(you gotta keep them in case you have a daughter to give them to someday!) but one didn't really have a good box anymore so she became O's new friend.  Yes, I think she has a new favorite doll(at least for now).  Since we only have 6 "babies" in our house I decided this one should have a real name.  So O and I went through a bunch of names(ok, I said them and she repeated them) and came up with Lucy for this doll.  O said the name well the first few times but now it sounds like "Gooucy."  Oh well.



We went outside to play yesterday.  You can tell fall is coming.  I won't mind fall so much it I didn't know winter was coming after it.

O helping me sweep



Actually the pile I had was all over the driveway again by the time we went in but that's ok.

One more picture.  O has decided it's fun to take her daddy's glasses off and wear them.  I must be rubbing off on my husband since after I showed him this picture he said "that's a good blog picture." :)



Now I'm off to do something productive... maybe.
