His Underwear!!!

i know you're missing nolan...



yes. his underwear are on backwards, and there is a reason for it.
he LOVES "car racers" aka Cars, so i bought him Cars underwear. Yeah!!!
the problem is, the cars are on the BACK, or as he would say, on his "hiney" and
he can't see the cars if they are on his hiney!
therefore, he INSISTS on wearing them backwards so that he can see lightning mcqueen!

we love nolan!

i REALLY need to cut his hair!!!

nolan asked me to clip the balloon to his head!
so i did...

he CRACKS me up!

Boobies...

{i can't believe i'm going to post this, but it's WAYYYY too funny not to}

yesterday, as i was changing evyn's diaper and getting the children ready to leave, nolan and gavin walk in...

nolan says {out of NO-WHERE}

"i'm proud of you mommy"

i reply, with an "ahhh, why?"

he firmly states. "because, you got boobies!"

WHAT THE HECK!

gavin starts busting up!

i start laughing.

nolan can't figure out what all the commotion is about.

he smiles. he's SO proud...

now.

two things.

obviously this is a NO PICTURE post. which is unheard of.

and most importantly, does anyone else have a three year old that hasn't gotten over the boobie thing. for crying out loud i haven't nursed him since he was 15 months old.

No Crying...Finally

after 14 long months of screaming every time her feet touch the water, evyn has finally decided that the bath is not so bad after all...

loads of fun! yeah!

Your turn...

to start learning.

Hot Wheels Fever...

well yes, nolan has hot wheels fever, but he also had a fever.
he really wanted a hot wheels party. he picked out all his favorite cars and a few fun stuff from the store.
so even with a fever and a stuffy nose, we had a small little hot wheels party

for the #1 dude!

A St Patty's Party

let me begin this post with a note of thanks to all the talented bloggers who share there talents and ideas. i found some great ideas for nolan's st patricks day/birthday party.

i thought i'd share some with you.

i found the rainbow cupcake idea over at running with glitter. they were super cute. i have two suggestions, make sure you use white liners so that you can see the rainbow and when layering, be sure that you use only a teaspoon of each color and be sure to add each layer to the edge of the muffin cup rather than the center. this way each color shows up really well on the outside of the cupcake.

the cute tags were found thru how does she. they have great links, as well as, some great deals.

oops, i ran out of time to make my cookies, so i went with store bought. not as good, but cute. the cake stand is from home goods. i love the interchangeable ribbons.

these labels are from the same place that i found the tags. it came as a grouping, along with the flags below.

the leprechaun pie was a hit. i got the idea from this blog
when masyn got home from school she was all excited about the mishaps that took place at school due to a naughty leprechaun. i ran with it and told her that the same thing happened at home. i had bought a couple bags of chocolate coins and when i went to get them the coins were all gone but the bags were left. later in the evening as everyone was devouring the leprechaun pie, she was the first to discover that the chocolate coins had been put in the pudding cups!!! that CRAZY leprechaun! he even left a poem...crazy!

the banner below was an idea of the tomkat studio that was featured on hgtv along with the cute shirt that i made for masyn in the previous post.

and those crafting chicks had the free downloads for this super cute leprechaun treasure hunt.

and these are not evyn's footprints, the crafting chicks give you a fun way to make your own tiny footprints. i used tempura paint on the tile and it washed up super easy.

i hope you bookmark some of these and have yourself a great st paticks day next year. and if you live nearby, your invited to next years party!
