Goofy Little Pup

We were worried about JonJon adjusting to being with out my Mom but looks like he is feeling quite at home.

Lazy Afternoon

We just love lazy afternoons in this house. Find time to take a nap, snuggle with the loved ones, play with the kids. Here is a small glimpse into our lazy afternoons...

Wish every day could be like this!

I can't believe our "baby" is almost 7 yrs old. She is just 13 days away from turning the big 7. This year she has chosen to accept $100 in cash to spend rather than a birthday party. We decided to do some casual pics and they turned out great! We still need to get her Birthday outfit and do some official Birthday pictures which yes I am late on this year but what's the rush right?

She is such a Bright and Charming little girl, couldn't of asked for a better gift.

Happy Birthday to ME

My daughter is so sweet and thoughtful. She made this for me a day early!

have to love children's eagerness for Birthdays

I heart my Children!

I heart books

It's so hard to find the time to read these days. So when I do read it's usually something frivolous for me. Something I really enjoy. These aren't all the books I have sitting around the house but the ones I plan on finishing within the next couple months =)

Bed time giggles

I just love how close my three kids are. They make me so thankful that not only we have 3 beautiful healthy children, which we are truly blessed with, but having them just shy of two years apart was a great choice. It was what worked for us and turning out to be all that we hoped for. I am hoping and wishing with all my might they stay as close when they are adults as they are now.

This is Caleb hiding from her dear Mother who wants some pics lol

With lots of night time giggles they finally settled down and went to sleep

Cupcakes anyone?

Well I will be honest I was craving cupcakes. So I get some ingredients together at the store and completely realized I forgot oil...So I am searching the internet since I had no desire to go back out and found some substitutes...Boy I am so glad I ran out oil! I made amazingly moist cupcakes with Vanilla Coke Zero!

AWESOME!

I also made my own frosting although it called for plain powder non creamer again this is where laziness kicked in. The frosting is more on the vanilla caramel side since that is what I had LOL. Lessoned Learned but they are still yummy!

Now I have a pic of the diet coke can. You can use it as well. It's one full can to replace the oil. The batter does come out a little thinner but does bake up nicely.
