Happy 13th!

Just looking back at some pictures of this day 13 years ago! I posted some a few years ago here...

A fun little review of the last 13 years...

Too, two, SWEET!

Here are some out-takes candids I took the other day when I was trying to get a good pic of Anna for her "12 month" picture! I just love to watch these two together. Drew is the sweetest big brother! He is pretty attentive to her (when he isn't playing on his dads iPhone). He likes to help keep her entertained in the car and he LOVES to make her LAUGH! He's better at it than any of us. She just cracks up for Drew.


1st Cupcake Smash!

She didn't really SMASH it...she did EAT it!

ALL of it...

well, except for a clump of frosting stuck to her tray. Mmm buttercream!

My mom and I made fresh strawberry cupcakes with strawberry frosting...they were DELISH!

See for yourself...


Yep, they were a hit!

Happy Birthday!!

Here's just a quick peek of our newly crowned...

1 year old...

it's all I've had time to do since our basement flooded. We have been in the thick of it -doing the work ourselves & fitting it in around baseball games- then with the storms last night we had some water again. This time it was pouring in one of the windows. Thankfully Mike braved the downpour to investigate and he removed debris away from a drain spout and that seemed to solve the problem for now! I do see replacing lots of the cracked black drain pipes in our future this summer though. Augh! It never ends does it :) Opportunities to work on my attitude and response to difficulty are abundant.

Enough about that...enjoy this sweet little smile...



I plan to post more of her cupcake smash and pics of her and Drew just playing in the back yard later.
