Vince turned 1!

 Vince turned 1 on April 4th. We had a party with the family.

 Everything was blue and green.

 I put pictures of every month up on the wall to see how much he grew in a year.

 My mother in law came for the birthday party. She helped me with my crazy ideas for decorations.

 Here are all of his balloons.

 Here is Vince's smash cake.

 Vince was so happy. He loved all the attention.

 He loves balloons.

 Vince went crazy with his cake.

 He loved it. I love his face in this picture.

 See, he ate a lot of the cake. Ok maybe he played with it.

 Picture with daddy. I love his big cheesy smile.

 Picture with mommy.  He tried feeding me some. ha ha, I ran away.

After, he started eating/playing with the cardboard.

He is such a happy, crazy little boy. I can't believe how fast time flies with the more kids you have.  I'm so glad Vince is in our family. I love him so much! Thanks to everyone who helped celebrate this fun birthday with us.

Lex turned 5!

 For Lex's 5th birthday, Lex wanted to go bowling and have an angry bird birthday cake. That is all he asked for, easy enough.

 Grandma Judy watched the little ones so we could bowl.

 Lex loving his angry bird cake. It was a yummy cookies and cream cake.

 We got Lex a big angry bird balloon.

 Lex blowing out his candles.

 The whole gang that celebrated with Lex or most of them.

 Lex is obsessed with everything angry birds right now.

 Vince was lucky and got a couple bites of cake I guess he is getting ready for his birthday coming up soon.

 Lex ate that whole big piece all gone.

 Lex bowling like a professional!!!

 Vince tried to get his hands on a bowling ball.

 Lex opening presents.

 As you can see by the scores that we are definitely not a bowling family. I guess we will have to go again soon to get better.

 On Lex's actual birthday, we were able to go see the farm animals. That is Lex's favorite things. He loves animals.

 He got to ride the big horse this time. He was very happy.

 Lex playing.

 Lex actually let me take this picture of him, in fact he asked me to take it.

 In other news, since i am a slacker, Vince has started walking since the end of February. He is  on the move.

 Other parties so far..... Miss Olivia turned 1!!! Rachel made that owl cake. I was very impressed.

She seriously ate about half of that little cake. She was a such a happy little girl, can't believe she is 1.

Happy Halloween

 This year Lex decided he wanted to be Peter Pan. Some people thought Robin Hood. He would tell them I am Peter Pan. He was really into it this year.

 Vince with his nose painted black. What a happy baby!

 Vince was a dalmatian this year. He looks so cute!

 Olivia came trick or treating with the boys. She was a lovely giraffe!

 Here they are trick or treating. I took a couple pictures then I stayed home and passed out candy.

 Look how excited Lex is...... I love it!

 Lex ringing the door bell. Lex is a little too friendly.He would walk right into people's homes.

 Vince fell asleep he was tired after riding around in the stroller all night.

 Grandma with her babies. She made the costumes. Isn't she amazing????
