Cupcakes and Commentary

This weekend, we took a morning and went to one of our local parks to feed the ducks. I was not a fan of all of the geese (especially the ones that followed us around), but A really enjoyed it! His favorite part was feeding the fish, which amazed me because when we took him [...]

Yea for birthdays! Mine in particular, this weekend Super A was SUPER excited about opening presents. So excited about my Mint Julep Monograms tote (so cute! Thanks to my sister and her fam) And an Ipod that takes pictures, plays video, and I can immediately upload it all to facebook! HA! (did you know that [...]

Yesterday A brought home a paper from school that said “things I like to do with my family” and his answer was “play mario karts”. I thought he would have put “Just Dance 2″, but apparently not. In honor of his favorite thing to do we decided to play a little mario kart last night. [...]

So just for my own personal memory…here is Super A’s original room and set-up. And now here is his new big boy room… My husband is dying to purchase these super mario wall decals to put in the space between the animal canvases and the bed. I have to say it would be pretty funny. [...]

We are in the process of moving Super A into our guest bedroom (aka the big boy room). Our guest bedroom and closet is significantly larger than A’s current room, so we decided to move him to that room so he would have more space to play. His old room will be for “his baby [...]

Every year we plant a garden we learn something. This year we learned that we planted the garden at the right time. We also learned not to just pour out the seeds, or this will happen… Crazy, crazy amounts of marigolds. I also learned that I should mark the vegetables, because what I thought was [...]

One of Super A’s favorite pretend games right now is “naptime”. He recruited Little J to help him play, which Little J happily obliged. At first Little J didn’t realize Super A was playing a game. So he patted A’s head and checked on him. All while drinking his “coffee”. He was hilarious! J kept [...]

I cannot believe we are here already! I barely slept last night worrying that A was going to have a hard time going into preschool today. He did so great! He was only slightly upset that he couldn’t bring his toy story 3 lunch box directly in the classroom, but had to leave it in [...]

I couldn’t think of a better name for this post, so there you go. As you may have noticed my one week of meals has gone by the wayside. With being sick at dinner almost every night for the past month, it doesn’t make you feel much like blogging about dinner. In the fall I [...]

One of Super A’s favorite things to do in the evening is take a bath. It could be because it’s a 100 degrees out (not joking), and so going outside has hardly been easy lately. I’ve never really had a summer where I’ve longed for fall (I’m definitely a warm weather person), but this year [...]
