There's somthing about Daniel . . .


I'm kindof backtracking here, but I never posted any pics of Daniels blessing, but here are a couple of pics I took on my phone. My uncle Denny, the family photographer, took more but I can't get the disc to work :(

Okay, I need to brag about Daniel for a little bit. He is seiously the best, happiest baby ever!! I seriously can not get enough of him!! I want to hold him, kiss him, cuddle and play with him all the time. He has the cutest laugh and smile. I think he even looks cute when he has a blank stare on his face!! One day when I was preparing my lesson on Sunday and it was crunch time (I'm a procratinator, remember? Hopefully, no one in my ward reads this, I want to give them the impression that I prepare my lessons months in advance), so I asked Greg to keep Daniel in the living room while I shut my door and worked on my lesson, bccause I couldn't get anything done because I would see him smiling at me and then stop working on my lesson to go play with him! I don't know what it is about him, maybe just the fact that he is a baby or what, but I seriously can not get enough of that kid!!

Scott's 4 Birthday Bowling Bonanza and My Very Special Cake Decorating Talent

Scott is four!! WE had such a fun day!! We let Scott pick an activity during the day and he picked bowling. Check out these cute pics.
My favorite part of bowling was the little bowling shoes they had for my kids!! They looked so cute in those shoes. Stacey is throwing a tantrum because she didn't get her own ball (she will turn 3 one day, right?)


Here's the exciting birthday breakfast, with Scott's choice of cereal, Cinnamon Toast Crunch. Later in the day, he got to watch a movie during quiet time with the boys.



Then on to Chuck E. Cheese for the birthday party . . .


The best thing about Chuck E. Cheese is that there is no setup and no cleaning up after!! The kids all had fun, with the exception of Daniel, who sat in his car seat almost all night. But he looked really cute doing it.


I don't want to take anything away from Scott's bday, but I wanted to show everyone my hidden (very amateur) cake decorating talent. Here is Scott's cake decorated by ME!!


The ball is a cake too (it's supposed to be a basketball and hoop)! My mom always made us homemade decorated cakes for our birthdays, so it was fun for me to make one of my own!!

Scott is so much fun, and I am so greatful to have him in our family! I can't believe he is already four!!
