A peek into our days lately

Somehow I forget to take the camera with me to important things but remember on days when nothing really special is happening! Ah, I really need to work on that. Anyways, Devin turned 25 on monday! We had a BBQ and played Frisbee last Saturday! It was so much fun, and the day was PERFECT! (sorry, no pics). Monday morning came and I told Lucy that today was his real birthday, so we made him a Toffee Cake (his favorite breakfast) and she insisted he have candles to blow out. We stuck a few candles in and sang to him! 
Since I forgot the camera for the party I figured I'd at least take pictures of this! 
The kids just stared at the candles :)
The camera was too slow and I couldn't get a picture of him blowing it out! This one is right after.
Happy birthday 'old man'! 
I LOVE YOU!


With all the wonderful sunshine and warm weather we've been playing outside everyday. It has been so fun! Cole is discovering just how fun outside can be, and Lucy LOVES that she doesn't have to wear a jacket or shoes! (Not going to lie, I Love it too! and the fact that it doesn't take 20 mins to get us outside).
 First day it was warm we played in the sand...Cole still eats everything. I guess he thinks dirt tastes pretty good, because he doesn't mind eating it. 
 He also thought I would like to have some!
 It took Lucy a while to want to get in the sand and get dirty. She kept sitting on the side and would stick a foot in the sand and say, 'yoot mom! I'm in da sand!' 
haha, eventually she sat in it and got her hands and feet in there too!

 We've been reading a lot of books lately. Some days I feel like this is all we do. These are very common scenes around our house..
 I've almost given up on putting the books away.
If we take too long to sit down with him he gets very frustrated and starts crying. Most of his favorite books he has a hard time opening and turning the pages. 
 We play with our animals everyday. We found these little Toob Animals at JoAnns. They are 8 buck a Toob, but with a 50% off coupon they're only 4. So we've bought two sets and the kids love them!
 Lucy usually hides out on the couch where Cole can't reach them :) 
 But thankfully she is still willing to share and doesn't really care....yet!
Cole really does think that I like to eat everything he eats too!!
