Happy Birthday!!

My baby boy is 4!

It's hard to believe.

But we did it right on Saturday and threw a great carnival birthday for the guy!

He invited all his friends and family over to enjoy the festivities.

There were games, prizes, popcorn, snow cones and hot dogs.

He loved it! He chose the theme himself out of a Oriental Trading Magazine.

Probably his favorite part...the new toys!

All his friends were excited to see what he got too.

It was a perfect party!  Not too stressful for Mom and a lot of fun for the kids. 

Happy Birthday Buddy! 

We are having...

We super excited to welcome this new bundle of pinkness and cuteness to our family in a few short months!

D and I were both a little surprised and completely happy to find out about our little girl.

And it was fun to share the news with the kiddos.

They both jumped up and down clapping so excited about a baby sister.

G has wanted a sister from the beginning.

T had told me that "he would be frustrated with another sister" but has since changed his mind

It's hard to believe that there will be another one soon.  

But I am so excited that G will have a little sister to play with.

And the girls will be the majority in the house (I never had that before).

And now T being the only boy will just get a little extra attention making sure we fit 

in all the boy stuff that he loves.

Yay for baby girls!!!

Best of Cabin Trip 2012

Camp Koons! 

It was the first time we all slept in the tent together.  The kids did surprisingly well...it's the adults that couldn't sleep.  But lucky the adults can spare some sleep and still function properly the next day. The kids on the other hand probably not, so I think it went well. 

Of course we brought our nice and comfy Aero bed for us and the kids had the hiking blow up mattresses.  The kids also got new sleeping bags. Which were a big hit...they slept them all week leading up to the cabin.

Spending time with this guy was my favorite part of the weekend. He just got finished with year one of his MBA program and I was so happy to have him all to myself!

The kids would love to have one of these babies...and so would Daddy.  Maybe one day...

Throwing rocks in the river is always on the top of list of things to do for the kids.  It never seems to get old. And G seem to pick up a new hobby while we there....rock collecting.  She now feels the need to steal some rocks when ever she sees them.

Much needed bath time after a long day of getting dirty.

My little boy my have to graduate to the shower next year he is getting a little to big for this tub.

Another successful weekend at the cabin. The kids loved it and can't wait to go back. I love sharing it with them.  I love watching them play with all their cousins and making so many memories.  I truly makes my heart happy and the whole weekend worth it.
