Happy Birthday Baby!

Today DT is 1 year old. How can it be? It's hard to remember the days before he was here.

I took the boys to get their pictures taken since I have a thing about getting a picture made on the actual birthday. Whew, that was tiring. Then we enjoyed a dinner of crepes. The two boys share a favorite of Turkey Pesto (turkey, cheese, pesto and avocado). Happy birthday DT! :D

Here are some pictures from Sunday when we gave him our presents (ride-on & house)... I think he liked them!

Birthday Bash


Party Central

Happy Birthday!

Hmmm... this tastes good!

Very good!

Cupcake coma (Plus I wanted to show off the bib!)


DT had a really nice party. I think he had a great time and I know LT did. :D

DT just started taking a few steps. I'm looking forward to him walking so he doesn't get so filthy!

Heat Wave

We are in the middle of a heat wave. 90 degrees yesterday and today. Of course, forecast calls for cold & rainy on Saturday (only 60!) for DT's birthday party. I hope we can still have it outside!

A heat wave calls for the pool! Even if it's a small fishy one.

This is LT's lotion shop. Those are all different flavors of lotion. Lime, lemon, plain, and every kind, I believe. If you visit the shop, he will squirt some on your leg for you.


When it's this hot, you need a big drink!


And modeling today's very cute outfit ... who said buying for boys was no fun? And what is that behind him? A finished yard? Almost! All the plants are in, now the drip system is being put in by Gardner TT. Pictures coming soon!

Bicycle built for Six

I cannot explain why a surrey is so fun, yet, it is!


What a great looking group!

Oh wait, are those two getting into trouble?

Yeah, Auntie M!

Having an Auntie visit is great! LT & DT have been "over the moon" since she got here.

Yesterday we took her to the aquarium!

Looking out at the Bay. Note the awesome backpack from Auntie M that LT has not been parted with since.



Trying to get a picture of 2 boys and 1 aunt. They're all actually pretty cute.




Sea Dragon! The new sea horse exhibit is open and it's great.

Front Yard, Day 18 (???) - The professionals are done!



Friday, the contractors finished up by putting in the drip system. It looks so great! I especially love the porch and, well, the whole design. It's unique, yet fitting for our house & neighborhood.

Now the hard part, finishing up ourselves! Below are our first plant selections that went in Sunday. Well, ignore that clump of grass that had to be pulled out. :)



We're on a break now until we get back from Sister Visit Easter 09. Will only be missing one sister. :(
