America!

We love America in this house.  We say the pledge in front of our huge flag every day!  (It's on a wall in the Noodle's room.)  As a mom you always wonder if anything you are trying to teach your children is actually sinking in.  Then the moment comes along that makes you think that maybe you are doing ok.

The 8th was the official day that T-Bug had his first bite of rice cereal.  We are still working on it, but he is doing much better than the first day.  Enjoy!

Better luck next time mom.

For the first time ever, I let the Chief have a birthday party.  He decided to have a pirate theme.  We had a lot of fun.  The boys went on a treasure hunt, complete with a sword fight for the treasure.  Lots of fun games.  Our good friend made these beautiful cupcakes.  They turned out so awesome.  I am so impressed with her cupcake talents.

 Chief loved it so much he wants to do it again next year.  I had fun, but I think I may make him wait another 7 years for another one.  I am still pooped.
