40 more years!

40 years of marriage is a pretty significant accomplishment.
Today we celebrated my parent's 40 wedding anniversary.
Surrounded by family, my parents reminisced about their
wedding day and how life has changed (good and bad). They
capped off brunch with a mini wedding cake. Happy 40th
anniversary! For all of the pictures, look on the right

Secret Admirer

As I was making breakfast this morning, I turned around, and
Jack had a mysterious note laying on him. "I love Jack".
Since only one of our 4 children can write it wasn't much of
a secret but how adorable that Jack had a secret admirer!

Oh Jack

Where is the time going? Jack is growing by leaps and
bounds! Last night he had a great night (knock on wood!),
and I think we are making progress towards sleeping through
the night - alleluia!!! On Sunday I turned over his clothes
from newborn size to 0-3 and now he has real outfits beyond
just sleepers with feet - ha ha. I'm going to blink next
and he'll be walking - oh no!

Bingo!

Adelina and Isabelle hosted a kids' Bingo party tonight.
There were 9 kid players not counting Nate, Joseph, and
Evan. I'll give them credit - the little boys did really
try to play but then reverted to the playroom. Everyone was
a winner but Adelina and Mikey must have had the touch
because each won at least 4 games. So flippin' cute!

She's a Spelling Bee!

Adelina had her 1st ever spelling test today. She studied
every day for about 2 weeks. Adelina got a perfect score!
She is so super proud of herself.

Dear God...

This came home in Adelina's backpack today. Her assignment
was to write a letter to someone about something you are
thankful for. She loves the world - so adorable!

Jack 3 months old in the blink of an eye

Realized today that Jack was 3 months old this week - wow,

Next we'll blink and he'll be off to Kindergarten!

TGIF

This is how my girl decided to get dressed for school today.

went with it. Cheetah coat and all!

Perfect Brownies

Isabelle and I made brownies today. Well... technically I
made brownies and Isabelle licked the bowl perfectly clean.
Regardless, I used my new Wilton brown pans that I wanted so
so so badly. They make individual brownies - no cutting,
lots of edges, all the same size - sounds perfect! My
biggest complaint? The brownies look too perfect. If I
didn't know better I would think I bought them. If I make
them to bring somewhere, they would surely think I bought
them instead of the made them. They come out absolutely
perfect which would not normally be a bad thing, but they
seriously look like they just came out of a Costco plastic
brownie bites box :)

St. Cecelia's Pop Warner banquet

St. Cecelia's held its Pop Warner banquet last night. All
of the boys and girls attended and got a trophy, met with
their coach, etc. Adelina had a fantastic time with
Annaliese and Amanda! Pretty cute trophy too - it's a snow
globe!

Bowling Buddies

too shabby :)

Super Star Hair for Everyone

Joe called me and said "Joseph has two red streaks in his
hair." I reply with the normal thoughts - it is probably
crayon or marker or maybe its paint. Then I get home and
find this! HA HA HA! The girls got a Hanna Montana super
star hair kit for Christmas. I guess Joseph was feeling
left out :)
