Cupcakes and Commentary

Happy Christmas Decorating!!

So The Iron Bowl didn’t turn out exactly the way we wanted this year, however, look at this love from our family! They went out and bought shirts to wear for the game in support! So sweet!

Somehow I didn’t take many pictures from Thanksgiving this year. I need to get with my sister to see what pictures she took! We had a great time with all of our family in town and the weather was nice enough that the boys could go outside and play for awhile before dinner. Hope you [...]

This is really the first year that A is really excited about Christmas. He was excited last year, but this year the anticipation of the holiday for him has been really fun. Although we are still a few days from Thanksgiving we took A to our local botanical gardens to go on a walking tour [...]

So A and I finally finished a craft that we started about two weeks ago today, so I thought I would post it! It was inspired by this pin on pinterest that I found. The Tiny Seed by Eric Carle was one of my favorite books growing up and now it is one of A’s [...]

This past weekend we celebrated my Mom’s birthday (which means mostaccioli, cupcakes, and some CRAZY present opening). My sister and I had been keeping a pretty big secret from my Mom for her present and we were so excited to finally have her party so she could open it! You see my Mom has been [...]

So A and his cousin J have had at times a “strained relationship”, haha. They are very close in age (9 months apart), which means that they are a bit competitive for the same attention, reach milestones at similar times, and tend to bug each other at times. However, my sister and I have noticed [...]

Celebrating with a birthday bagel on his birthday day October 16th. I’ve been meaning to complete this for awhile, but kept getting sidetracked with other posts, so better late than never! A compilation of things that A is into, accomplished, and looking forward to at the sweet age of 3. A weighs in at 29.6 [...]
