Ethan's birthday party!

O.K, don't laugh. I have never decorated a cake before. I guess it turned out alright for my very first attempt.

Ethan's trying not to cry as we all sing happy birthday. For some reason it scares him!

Trying to blow out the candles.

Finally caught him smiling! Cute black smile.

Ty before he knew his mouth was black.

Ty finally realized his tongue was black!

I think Rachel enjoyed her cake and ice cream.

Caleb having some cake and ice cream!

Giving daddy a high five to commence the opening of gifts!

Yay, more money! Now I can buy more Star Wars! Thanks Aunt Angela!

A Star Wars space ship that transforms into Darth Vader!

Star Wars action figures! Now he doesn't have to steal any from Matt's Lego set. Lets just say he took them to bed with him!

He unwraps his presents ever so carefully! It's cute!

Another part for his Thomas train set!

He had a GOOD birthday!

A few hours after mom's breast cancer surgery.

Mom is obviously feeling good enough to pull a face at me after she got home from her surgery! I think she was just a little excited at the good news that she got. The cancer lump in her breast was large. The surgeon felt a few swollen lymph nodes he thought that the cancer had spread. When her surgery was done we were told it had NOT spread to her lymphatic system! The biopsies on her swollen lymph nodes came back negative! She will most likely have to have radiation and chemo therapy treatments as a precautionary measure. YOU GOT YOUR MIRACLE MOM!!!

Uncle Michael put his spiffy hat on me while we were at the hospital waiting for Nanny to come out of surgery. we got there at 7am and left the hospital at 3:30pm. By the way I was the best baby the whole 8 1/2 hours we were there. Then we went home to Nannies house to take care of her. I didn't get home with mommy until 10:30 at night. Mommy said she was so proud of me!

I don't quite know what to think about this!

I could get used to this hat!

Be quiet my head

Be quiet my head,
Be buoyed my heart,
So no more silent tears shed.

Popular songs when we were born

Laura, thanks for the fun idea!

Here is my family's.

Matt "Baby Don't Get Hooked On Me" by Mac Davis.

Rachel "Goodies" by Ciara featuring Petey Pablo
Ethan "sexyback" by Justin Timberlake
Caleb "Watever You Like" by T.I

That was fun!

Since Matt goes to work 5 days a week and has school on Saturdays, The rest of us are left with out a car. And we don't have much family time. On Sunday (yes Sunday) we went to Cabela's. We needed some family time AWAY from the house. Of course Rachel insisted on wearing her fairy wings.

Poor Rachel was scared the bear was really going to get her!

Being sill with the animals.

Ethan was soo scared his daddy was going to let him fall.

Rachel wasn't quite sure what to thing of the animated man.

Caleb had a big grin on his face. I'm sure he was thinking this was great fun. Cute baby!
